I saw her on one breezy night
The moon shone in a starry light
The river gushed by in delight
And there I stood still, with her in sight
I felt my senses give away
Urging me to go her way
In search of a gait that made her dress sway
And there I stood still, on my feet of clay
The same moon, a different night
The same river, a different sight
I could hear her heart in pain say
But she wouldn’t see me, not today
The time for my judgement has finally come
A song for my peace is being sung
My numb soul makes one final leap
With her in sight, I go to sleep
Shilpa told me that Blogging etiquette is that you appreciate by leaving a note. Wanted to start where you left it, so here you go. (my style, hindi)
shab toh kati woh kuch syah si,
kyuki band aankhon ke peechay thi ik aah koi
woh aah jo rab mangti hai
per tumhare naam si lagti hai
band aankhon mein nazar aati hai mujhe
woh theri si aakhein
tumhare hoton pe ruki hui baatein
jaise kuch kehna chahti ho mujhse
meech leta hu aankhen main
jab kehti ho tum ki yeh ho nahi sakta
aur ghabrahat mein jag uthta hu
jab kehti ho ki hum phir bhi milte rahengey
