zindagi naam hai
mar mar ke jiye jaane ka
every breath, fani, is
the corpse of a moment gone
what we call life
is living through repeated deaths

naala mashhoor ghalat hai ke
asar karta hai
life was wasted prayers
and nothing came of it
the popular belief that
laments work...is a lie

do roz ki mehfil hai
ek umr ki tanhaai

and a lifetime of loneliness

aur phir umr guzar jaati hai
yakjaai mein
in a moment
the fabric of life can unravel
and it takes a lifetime
to weave it back together
moment, moments
scatter, disperse
warp and weft, fabric
life
pass through, spent
reweaving, reassembling

sakhi piya ko jo main na dekhun
to kaise kaaTuun andheri ratiyaan
the night of separation stretches like tresses
day of union short like life itself
my friend, if i don't see my beloved
how shall i endure these dark nights?

wandering
