Memories

Sometimes, I look back and think
Remember and feel, what was and has been
And then I look forward to feel
All that might yet be
A smile breaks, a cheer creeps in
Yet scars remain within
The shadows of a trust I lost will haunt me forever

On Illness

I feel ill, I am so unwell
Please go and see, someone rang the bell

There's someone to see you, something urgent she said
Ask her to wait a while, I will take time to get out of bed

My eyes are watery, my neck is sore
My body aches, ah I can't take this anymore

She's saying she can't wait, its not in her nature
Ask her to come again I would, but she doesn't believe in the future

Oh! who is this rascal, who wont let me sleep
Who is this menace who wants to see me weep

Let her go, let her run, let her show us her back
I need to get well, I can't get off track

I sent her off, she wasn't upset
She left a card, said you shouldn't fret

Oh such a nice lady, I cursed her - oh such vice
'Hi my name is opportunity, I don't knock twice'

I feel ill, I am so unwell
Why don't I go and see, someone rang the bell.

Aadat si...

Sach kehne ko na bolo, sach bolte muh jhijhakta hai Jhooth mein zinda rehne ki aadat si ho gayi hai Muskurane ko na bolo, muskurahat bhi khokhli hai Iss gam ke sehre mein dum ghutaane ki aadat si ho gayi hai Tumse apni mohabbat chipaate chipaate Iss dil ko dard ki barkhat ki aadat si ho gayi hai Tumhare lavz iss dil ka sooraj hain, tumhara chehra iska chand Ab bin Roshni rehne ki aadat si ho gayi ai Tumhari hasi iski bhookh aur tumhari khushi iski pyaas Ab tumhari tamannayon ke chaayon mein jeeney ki aadat si ho gayi hai Tumse apni mohabbat chipaate chipaate Iss dil ko dard ki barkhat ki aadat si ho gayi hai Kehne ko hain nadiyaan aur bataane ko hain Aakash Par chup rehne ki aadat si ho gayi hai Dil mein hai tumhaare armaan kayi, aur kuch humaare bhi Par kaagaz nahin boltey, ab tumhaari tasveer se dosti karne ki aadat si ho gayi Tumse apni mohabbat chipaate chipaate Iss dil ko dard ki barkhat ki aadat si ho gayi hai Chalo koi baat nahin, naya savera, naya din Ab roz ummeed baandhne ki aadat si ho gayi hai Khuda ki rehmat hai aaj tak tumhare pyaar mein Dil ke tootey tukarhon se ek suneheri tasveer bananey ki aadat si ho gayi hai Tumse anjaane mein mohabbat nibhaate nibhaate Iss dil ko dard ki barkhat ki aadat si ho gayi hai
