Tried my hand at some Urdu expression and the English one just happened!
Khumaar
Ek ajeeb si bechaini
Kuch kar guzarne ki chaahat,
Apne wajood ki talaash
Ya dil ki raahat ?
Dil mein hai hulchul
Man mein laakhon khayal,
Inhe khwaab kahoon
Ya uljhe hue saawal ?
Kahin toh leke jayega
Ye khumaar,
Shayaad hai koi jagah
Gul-e-gulzar
***
Haze
A fuzzy restlessness
To do or die – A desire,
A quest for myself
Or my heart’s composure?
The heart is edgy
The mind - a flock of reflections,
Are these dreams
Or bewildered questions?
This whirl will lead me somewhere
Through this haze,
Of a thousand flowers
Maybe there’s some place
***
