Nahi accha

toofan ko dil mein panah dena nahi accha
apne hi aap se yun jhoot bolna nahi accha
ek hi hai zindagi jee le apne hisaab se
yun baar baar muqaddar ko kasoor dena nahi accha

waqt ke saath aksar hum bhool jaate hai
apno parayon ke beech fasle mitaate hai
apne toh apne hote hai lekin
gairon ke ehsaan bhulana nahi accha

dil ki baat sunkar jee lo tum
taqdeer ki parwah kabhi mat karo tum
apni rah khud hi talash lena musafir
kisse rehbar ka intezar karna hai accha

phursat milte hi tum khayalon mein kho jaate ho
jab masroof hote ho tum, phursat kho dhundte ho
yunhi khayalon mein zindagi katt rahii hai tumhari
haqueqat se kabhi aise judaa hona nahi accha

Why?

My dream is at it's best when I am waken up.
Why?

Whenever I step out to enjoy the rains, it's bright and sunny.
Why?

The old man looks at me and smiles while I try to avoid him.
Why?


The time I spend on writing silly thoughts can't be substituted.
Why?

I end up spending more than needed - though I know it may not be prudent.
Why?

When I am so much wanting to be in business, I am still working for someone else.
Why?

I yearn to have tea when there's only coffee available.
Why?

South Indian food tastes better in the gulf.
Why?

Lots of questions, many unanswered.
Why?

So many thoughts, so few words.
Why?

An apple, an orange, a mango, a guava.
Why?

So much confusion, unavoidable.
Why?

Flying High

On the final approach
Visual on the runway strip
Soon to touch-down
But I am flying high!!

Don't wanna miss the runway
Don't wanna come around
Another approach would drain resources
But I'm flying high!!

The weather ain't rough
No traffic at all
Have all clearances to land
But I'm flying high!!

There's only little to do
Drop fuel and lower the gears
Prepare to land, come down hard
But I'm flying high!!

I'm flying high as ever
Wanna ignore the runway
Wanna take her out away
And keep flying high!!

But I gotta land somewhere
And it gotta be safe
Ain't the only one flying
There's many to stake

Have to do what it takes
Have to bring her down with brakes
Meet the schedules, be on-time
And again be flying high!!
