Ending 2014!

It’s the last day of this year 2014 today, right now as I sit in office desperately waiting to go home, I thought might as well put my pen down for a while after posting these last two creations of 2014! 

Though I wrote them down a day back or two, when I post this right now, I have newer emotions attached to it. It’s strange how poetry can be so flexible to provide meaning to different situations in life and sound different every time you read it depending on the state you are in right now!

1st Oil Painting: My Moon & the Sun

जब दो रूहों के मुस्तक़बिल ,

एक लम्हे में मयस्सर होते हैं; 

ईमान बदलते हैं, 

मगर जज़्बात वही रहते हैं; 

मुकम्मल हों यूँ ख्वाहिशें, 

इबादत यही रहेगी हमेशा; 

थोड़ी न रोज़ाना 

कश्मकश के आयाम जानिब होते हैं! 

Glossary:

मुस्तक़बिल – Fate, fortunes

मयस्सर- Available

ईमान- Intentions

जज़्बात- Emotions

मुकम्मल- Successful

ख्वाहिशें- Desires

इबादत- Prayer

जानिब- Face to face

ख़लिश न बसे  अश्क़ों में 

रश्क़ न हो लफ़्ज़ों में,

जब भी ज़िन्दगी मामूली सा भी मौका दे 

भींच लो दोनों हाथों से ,

क्योंकि, ख़लिश खता है, 

और इस खता का मुआवज़ा मुनासिब नहीं!  

Glossary:

ख़लिश - Regrets

रश्क़- Complaint

खता- Mistake

मुआवज़ा- Compensation

मुनासिब- Possible 

At the end, pasting my personal wishes to all those who kept reading and motivating me!! 

Oil on Paperboard- "Two of us" 

Have a great productive and arty year all of you! 

More Love, More celebrations, More Poetry, More Colors, More Emotions and therefore More Love...!!!
