My Diary

Page III


    To kya hua jo mera ek khwab ho tum
    bahut apni ho, aur dil ke bahut kareeb ho tum
   [ it may be that you are but a dream of mine ]
   [ you are mine, and are very close to my heart ]

    paas to aao zara main tumheN mehsoos karuN
    mujhko lagta hai mere khwaboN ki tabeer ho tum
   [ come near me so that I may sense you ]
   [ I think that you are the reality of my dreams ]

    tujhko dekha to na jaane kyon laga aisa
    meri parchai ho aur meri jageer ho tum
   [ after seeing you I had that feeling ]
   [ that you are my shadow and belong to me ]

    aa mere dil maiN sama meri nas nas maiN utar
    jo kho gayi thee mere dil ki wo dhadkan ho tum
   [ come into my heart dissolve into my veins ]
   [ you are the heartbeat that I had lost somewhere ]
  
    maiN tera zikr bhi kisi aur se baat nahiN sakta
    ghuroor ye kehte hai mera ke sirf meri ho tum
   [ I can't even share your discussion with anybody ]
   [ my pride says that you are only mine ]

    raah maiN jiska ye palkeN bichaye baitha hooN
    meri wo pehli aur meri aakhiri khwaish ho tum
   [ I am waiting with my eyes open in your path ]
   [ it is you who is my first and my last wish ]

    ke tujhpar to sadiyon se likh raha hooN maiN
    bayaN na ho sakegi jo, wo khoob soorat ho tum
   [ I am writing on you for centuries ]
   [ for you are the beauti-full that cannot be discribed ]

    apne aap ko sabki nazroN se bacha kar rakhna
    na mere paas sahi lekin meri amanat ho tum
   [ protect yourself from the eyes of everyone ]
   [ you may not be with me but you are for me ]

    aa badh ke mujhko gale se laga le tu
    jeena mushkil hai bina jiske wo zaroorat ho tum
   [ come close and embrace me ]
   [ you are my need and I can't live without you ]

    na jaane kab se tujhe gunguna raha hoon kashif
    likhi gayi hai jo mere liyeN wo ghazal ho tum
   [ I don't know how long I have been singing you ]
   [ you are the song that has been written for me ] 

                                      - Kashif
