Final Testament

Can there be joy without happiness?
Can there be sadness without sorrow?
Can there be ethics without morals?
Can I have a life without you?

To most, these questions may sound askew
But then again, I'm one of the few
Who don't consider patience as a virtue
And every moment, I live my whole life through...

And so i embarked towards my destination
Asking myself for hope without aspiration
How my life had become subjective
Even though it lacked any objective

And so, today I have finally concluded
Whatever may be our lives rudiments
And our views about life may be different
But all our lives still consist of the same elements...

Belief provides our lives a balanced agreement
And yes, this is my final testament

Secrets

Secrets are a part of life
That define our strive with our strife.
There's a rumour that's rife
That secrets are the difference between death and life.

To keep secrets is a part of humanity
The one thing that keeps us from insanity
For secrets provide pleasures that we preserve as treasures.
To earn them we take measures, breaking away all the pressures.

But alas, secrets can sometimes make one devious
Sometimes knowingly, sometimes oblivious
But nonetheless, people behold them as if they are prestigious
And so such secrets must be withheld while the time is auspicious

Secrets are shady, just thought that you should know.
At times I wonder why, so many people let them grow.
Cancerous to everyone, let's bring them all to light.
Sometime soon, the time is near, all revealed alright.

I wrote this for a friend...the last verse is his work, not mine :)

Without You

Destinies apart, now i've lost all hope
Life without you now, is simply impossible to cope
But I'm still living on that one thread of life
That one day you will come and kill me of this fear

Dismantling illusions, sporadic imaginations,
Is my life without you...a life without destinations
Distraughted minds, disoriented thoughts,
Without you, my mind is at war with my heart that is wrought.

I have always found life plain, vivid and simple
One to be of joy, with the sun shining upon your dimple.
But now seasons have changed, and have left me with a rimple
For I'm no more nimble, as life's made me impel.

But even then, a human without a purpose, has no reason to live
For there's no hope for him, and nothing for him to give
And so today, I want to make myself clear to you...
That if I can't be with you, then I don't even wanna be without you

If I Die Today

If I die today, will you still remember me?
We are meant to be together forever, aren't we?
For all that matters to me, is you and my family...
And I know that what currently matters to them is my destiny.

And so, I croon your name...please come back to me!
For all I know is that you are my destiny
My only hope, holding off insanity...
My only reason to fight this social mutiny

Without you, my efforts are futile and in vain
Because then my life would only consist of pain
I will be ambushed by fear and insecurity, i will go insane
And then I will only see calamities and blood shed like rain

Will you be with me confronting human morality?
For death can't apart two hopeful souls without anxiety
Heavens shall cry, and we shall defy hell's mortality
And so I ask you, oh if I die today, will you still love me?

Aas

Dil se nikalti hai bas ek hi dua
Is zindagi se gham ho jaayein sab dhuan
Tere pyar mein main phir chahe ho jaoon tabah
Par apna vishwaas na tootne doonga, ki ik din aayegi subah

Tanhayion main gujarti hai yeh meri zindagi
Saari sarhadien par kar jaaye meri yeh diwangi
Us khuda se bhi lad padoon, hai aisi aawargi
Aisa junoon hai mujh par, kuch aisi hai teri bandagi.

Toofanon se jyada tez hai is pyar ki raftar
Samundar ke paani se jyada hai tumhare liye mera pyar
Tumhari khushiyon main ab bas gaya hai mera sansaar
Haan ab to meri zindagi ka tum ban gaye ho adhaar

Dard aur ghamon main meri hamesha dhali hai duniya
Lekin is zindagi main tumne bhar di kai khushiyan
Ab bin tumhare ek pal bhi main na jee sakoonga
Tumhari yaad main rota hoon aur bhi kai sadiyon tadpoonga

Tumhari nazron se hue hai kayi qatl-e-aam
Kitno ke sar kalam, kitno ka kaam tamaam
Ab chahe mera bhi ho aisa hi anjaam
Par aas lagaye bethoonga tumhari, main to har subah-shaam

Lovers

Lately I have realized
That i've set-up my own demise
That life without you won't suffice
So please come back in my life
B'coz I can't live without you otherwise...

I apologize if I ever said anything wrong to you
But did you not realize that I was only hurting myself?
B'coz me without you is like a human without a soul
As if a human being's living without any goal...

Without your love I will sink within a shoal
With burden on my chest that I can't even fill within a hole
Dusty fires, heated arguments...while all we see are crusades...
While in reality...for your love...I never set-up any barricades

Have you ever seen a person die due to a lack of respiration?
Well then you can imagine my future if I don't reach my destination
And my destination is you...this I proudly claim
And so if there's a problem with that...then I'm the one to blame

Do you still not realize that I can't live without you?
If I can't be with you, then my life will be askew?
For your love I've spilled, blood-shedded tears as dew
Trust me, such lovers in this world, are far-fetched and few

Faith

Love, lust, feelings...these r emotions that we all sense...
However, the pain, the anguish... that goes with them is immense
A lover's nightmare is when their special one gets upended
Because upon their happiness is where our lives are depended

Love is a feeling that words cannot describe
For eternity we shall be together, this we have subscribe
Tear apart my heart, that's where its scribed
For your soul is where, my life is ascribed

Our love is one...that will last for centuries...
Our hearts are the place where we'll find the sanctuaries
In our bond of love, i'll find my fortitude
Which will hence, help me, cut apart this solitude.

I realize and I know...that our destinations may not be the same
But without your love around me, this isloation will make me tamed
And so I hope, we could overcome this and get our love famed
B'coz in ur eyes I see us and our reality named

Life is a difficult journey, this we all know...
But the experiences are those that we all need to sow
These help built us...so as a person, we can grow
So keep your faith in love...and that's what life shall show :)

Chahat

Yaadon main, sapnon main...mujhe har jagah hoti hai teri aahat
Na dekhoon tujhko to...hoti hai dil main ek ghabrahat
Teri dhadkanon main basi hai ab mere dil ki raahat...
Haan kuch aisi si hi hai, meri tere liye yeh chahat.

Pyar ka na koi khuda hai, na hi koi bhagvaan
Yeh to bas hai milan ek rooh ka...aur do insaan
Is chahat se hi to yeh duniya nahi hui hai sunsaan
Warna zindagi main hai kaunsi khushiyan, jinka karein hum gumaan?

Teri chahat main tabah hone ka mujhe darr nahi,
Akhir tere bina yeh zindagi waise bhi nahi hai sahi
Kisi din meri zindagi main chali aana kahin
Warna tere ghar par meri maut ka janaaza hoga tabhi

Teri chahaton ke samundar main mujhe doob jaana hai
Tere pyar se apni zindagi ko sajaana hai
Teri rooh ko khud mein kuch aise samaana hai
Ki apne pyar ke kisse is duniya ko sunana hai

Teri chahat mile to...kya roke humein phir yeh zamana hai?

Bas teri chahat mile to...mujhe khud ko bhool jaana hai...
Bas teri chahat mile to...mujhe khud ko bhool jaana hai...

Unrequited Love

This agonizing agony, this tantalizing allure
Has left me enticed...looking for a cure.
These unhealable wounds only crave your charm
But alas, u've left me engrossed crying over the harm.

Your magnificence has left me disarmed
Your affection has left me all warmed
Beneath this shell of anguish that i've held
Your beauty has become my life's herald.

Unsailable seas, unbreathable air...
Life has always beaten me all fair and square
But in your eyes I've found a sense of belonging
One that gave me hope...the one that I was longing.

And thus, began my journey of no end
One that has only one purpose to send...
That its easy to live a life for your own being
While unrequited love is what this world should really be seeing...
