मेरी शेरो-शायरी

I think its most difficult part of writing. They are small and beautiful. I will like to get your feedback.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

अपनी आँखें कभी न खोलो सनम,
इनमे न कही डूब जाए हम,
पलकों की दीवारें न तोड़ो कभी,
आंखों से आँखें न लड़ जाए सनम.


तुम से मिलने की मुझको तमन्ना बड़ी थी,
इश्क करने का लेकिन इरादा नही था,
इन आंखों ने कह डाला वो सब,
ज़िक्र करने का मेरा इरादा नही था.


तुम जो आए तो ये गुलशन महक उठा,
समझाना जो चाह दिल को तो और बहक गया,
देखा जो मैंने तुझको तो दिल मचल उठा,
तेरी इन मुस्कुराहटों पे हाय मैं फिसल गया.


बहारों से मुझे क्या लेना,
बस इतना कहना हैं की,
ये दुनिया ये महफ़िल
मेरे काम की नही.

Uday: Thanks a lot for visiting my blog and Thanks for the praise. The second one is my favorite too. Recently I read madhushala and I am mesmerized by the beauty of the poem. Here is the link to read the legendary poem:

Thanks for the link, was looking the text :)

Madhushala is awesome, man!!! I have an mp3 of it, sung by Manna Dey! Beautiful poem, and an awesome voice - Perfect combo! :)

Do you want it?

Hobbes said...

Have to admit though, the poem as such didnt make that much sense, quite a few words went over the head. But I love listening to it. So personally I give more points to Manna Dey than to Bacchchan saab! :)

abe ek chhota sa typo hai, writing ki spelling galat hai first line mein[:D]

Maya (Nand) Jha said...

Praveen: Thanks for pointing the typo.Tum to 2004 se hi blogging kar rahe ho, kabhi bataya kyon nahi?

Maya (Nand) Jha said...

Uday: Yeah, I agree that some words are difficult to understand but once u understand what the poet wants to convey u will be amazed. I never listened to the song though, can u please send it by email if its not too large. My id is mayanand@gmail.com

Smriti said...

Good to see the poet in you :).I agree with Uday.Second stanza is the best.

Maya (Nand) Jha said...

Smriti: Thanks for appreciating poet in me:). I will suggest u to read my fav "Jindagi Ko Samajhane Laga hoon Main" too. Its obscure but I like it a lot.

Hobbes said...

Sorry man, been trying to upload that song but unable to. Its nearly 30 megs. Any suggestions on where I can upload it? I tried esnips.com several times, bt nt happening...

Maya (Nand) Jha said...

Uday: Thanks for trying. I thought you can try www.youtube.com as it has 100MB upload limit but it seems that its for video upload only. Anyway thanks.
