Behind the mountains

I know some ones waiting for me
Behind the mountains n thick dense tree
I need to cross over sooner than ever
To reach there I may not have forever

She's old tired unable to climb down
Else she would have trod to wipe away my frown
All her life she has strived to make me able on this side
But it has kept me away from her with a mountain to hide

The wait is endless for me as well as her
All these years hv made me nothing but eager
What will it be on the other side of the mountain
She will be waiting for me with hope blooming like a fountain

What shall I give her as soon as I see
A trip to the world with no misery
Or jz a hope that I'm here to make it alright
All these years she fought alone with might

Will she be proud of what I hv grown into
Or she will regret all the pain she had to do
I was sent to dwell and survive
There was a fortune she had to revive

Am I bold enough to cross the mountain
and the dense forest
Will this journey end years of wait and earnest
Will she see me the way she wanted
Behind the mountains my mother stands undaunted.

Ek jung meri bhi

Jabhi nikli hain bandooq se goli, lagi hain kisi aurat k seene pe, chahe use maa kaho ya aamijaan.
Azaadi k liye ehtejaj karne wale aur watan k seephai akhir ladh toh rahe hain kisi maa ki kokh suni karne.
Kisi ko hain jannat ki arzoo toh kisi ko hain shahadat ka jazba.
Shayad yeh sabaq bhul gaye ki asli jannat toh hoti hain maa k payron mein.
Jaane kab khatam hogi yeh Jung tabahi ki, kab barsenge guldaste fullon k goliyon ki jagah.
Jab kabhi hosh mein aaoge tab paooge unn kaatilon ko jinhone sarzameen-e-jannat ko jahannum bana diya.
Woh katil dikhenge aaine mein, tab Gaur se dekhna unki aakhon mein, shayad milega tumhe apne jannat ka raasta.
Ya phir sunayi degi woh cheekhen unn massumo ki Jo kho gaye iss jahannum mein.

Meri pehli Urdu Nazm

Meri pehli Urdu Nazm

Ek takhte se zhankkar meri kitaab ne mujhse poocha aakhir raaj kya hain iss berukhi ka?
Kyu bhool gaye unn haseen raaton ko jab tum apni hateliyon mein mujhe rakhkar padha karte the?
Kya hua unn alfhazon ko jo tumhari kalam k syahi se mere har wark ko muqarar karti thi?
Din beetein chale ja rahe, mujhpar jami dhul ko toh kabhi bedagh kiya karo.
Fir se apni hatheliyon mein na sahi lekin apni ruh se toh mujhko juda na karo.
Waqt aisa aa gaya ki mere liye waqt nikalna bad az qiyas ho gaya.
Kabhi yaad aati hain woh nazme jinka meine tumse taroof karvaya tha?
Wohi nazme jinki tehreek se jeena seekh liya.
Na jane kis cheez ka anjaam dene nikle ho ki apne aghaz tak ko peeche chod diya.
Jab bhi araam mile iss jadojehad se, palat k dekhna uss takhte ki aur.
Mein wohi milungi muskurate hue tumhare intezar mein.

All I ask for....

A song asks for rhythm to sound beautiful
A lamp asks for light to glitter
A plant asks for water to grow
An old man asks if someone's willing to know

A sparrow asks for a nest for her eggs
A cow asks a share of milk for her calf
A phoenix asks for wings from ashes to fly
A mother asks her child to never give up before try

A dog asks for a cuddle from his master
A horse asks for speed from his jockey
A fish asks for waves to move
Besides these all I ask for is you

My journey towards her

I ate my stuff still had some room for more
She hadn't even started and gave it all to me afore
I got hit by a blizzard on my way and was about to collapse
She stood strong against all odds and didn't let me relapse
I was passing by and suddenly felt heat under the sun
She became my tree to give me the shadow so that I don't burn
I got bogged down by my own miseries each time
She turned on the tides of time and didn't pay a dime
I grew young and saw the world through my eyes
She stood behind me taking all the pain in disguise
I got heartaches and failures paved their way
She always had strong belief and prayers to say
I panicked at the moment in anxiety and in fears
She would camouflage the whole world and wipe my tears
I felt safe and slept peacefully under her  cushion
She felt a desperate need to ignite my passion
I woke up one fine day and wondered around
She had left me alone uncovered and unbound
I found a book which was supposedly her clue
She wanted me to find her if our bond was true
I put aside my fake woos and gathered all my courage
She was all I had and there began my voyage
I crossed the sea of uncertainty and trod endless mountains
She wanted me to build an attitude that lasts forever and  blossoms
I finally reached the peak point and hardly believed what I saw
There was thousands applauding my effort and few left in awe
I was still looking for her in between this grand treat
She always wanted to make me stand on my own feet
I had found my voice and found a purpose for my life
She didn't realize without her my life was still a strife
I didn't look behind and began my journey towards the shore
She would be waiting for me feeling proud from the core.
