Rendezvous with the Self in Thy Life!

It may be a dream, it may be sorrow,
rosette or violet, it's never perfect,
It may be a reflection in thy tomorrow,
It's life, thou shall accept or reject.

Searching for the answers, thou ask thyself,
Stepping the stones, may it lead the right way,
Thou shall get the fame, thou shall the wealth,
Elucidations of the questions, we await everyday.

Mysterious is its nature, mysterious its game,
Dance thou may, whilst it rains devil,
It shall light up, one day the torch's flame,
It can't rain forever, walk in thou any trouble.

Mushkilon ke safar ka ek khoobsurat Raaz| (The beautiful secret of miseries!)

Duniya ke is shor main, mere dard ki awaazein dab ke reh gayin,
Zindagi ke is toofan main, ansooyon ki barish mitti mein mil ke beh gayi,

Jahaan bhi dhoondha tumhein, tum na mile mujhe,
Aur jab chhod di aaas, toh saamne mere yun achanak hi aa gaye,

Kyon? Aakhir kyon hai dard bharey maylon ka yeh silsila,
Samajhna toh bahut chahaa, par jawaab ek na mila,

Phir waqt ne samjhaya humein, kyon hai zindagi mein mushkilein,
Kyonki hum yun hi aam nahin, khaas phool hain kudrat ke jo is dharti pe hain khiley.

Prayer

With your decision, I always agree.
The pouring pain, I accept it all.

It's time to shine, For the miseries to flee,
Oh give me the strength, To break the wall.

My heart writhes in pain, Tears roll down the cheek.
Why are you laughing, sitting at the peak.

It's time for your test, not mine.
Take away the miseries, Bring back the shine.

The Journey - A Sonnet

With a dream in your heart,
Ye may find yourself alone,
Tearing miseries apart,
Ye strive on your own,

With a stronger will ye do it now,
No matter what the world shouts,
Climbing up the peak ye make a vow,
Ye shalt journey through the treacherous routes.

'Cause when ye shalt turn and look back,
Through the rain that once rolled out your eyes,
The pain was worthy in the sack,
A moment of truth ye would realize.

The journey ye walked whereon,
Will embrace your paragon.
