A Ghazal Written in Jul 2002

कट गया कुछ इस तरह से ज़िंदगानी का सफ़र,
साथ हम चलते रहे, पर फ़ासला बढ़ता गया।

अनकही कड़वाहटों के घूँट हम पीते रहे,
रह गए ख़ामोश तुम भी, और गिला बढ़ता गया।

जो कभी देखे थे हमने ख़्वाब, पूरे न हुए,
और उनके टूटने का सिलसिला बढ़ता गया

हाल अपना देखने को लोग तो आये मगर,
हमको तनहा छोड़ कर वो काफ़िला बढ़ता गया।

चंद लम्हों के लिए खुशियों ने मुंह मोड़ा था पर,
वो न लौटीं तो ग़मों का हौसला बढ़ता गया।

  4. Hey Yashi...Now I know the reasons behind your rock solid philosophies....very well-written and in sync with the melodies of a lonely heart

  5. It's been a thought or an excerption as well in my mind about the triumphs of a personage regarding "laddoo" in both the hands...but Yashi! you are a paradigm for this...as you enclosed a good voice synchronized with a great thoughtful intellect too...

  9. I was having a cursory look at ur blog but this one post compelled me to write a comment that's not a demoralizing one. संक्षेप में अगर कहूं तो परिष्कृत और परिपक्व रचना। उम्मीद करता हूं कि आगे भी ऐसी ही रचनाओं के लेखन का सिलसिला चलता ही रहेगा। I've read almost all posts written by Suyash; now, I must say writing is in the blood of u guys. Keep it up good work.

  10. @Alok ji: I have read some of your comments on Suyash's blog...aur padh ke bas yahi sochti thi, 'kya dhaansu hindi hai!' Glad to see your comment on my post...will surely try to keep up the writing...thanks a lot for the encouragement.
