Kal raat
Ek sheetal komal sparsh
Mahsoos kar
Main jag utha


Dekha
Mere bistar par mujhko
Chhoo kar chandni muskara rahi thi
Kuchh gunguna rahi thi.
Kuchh sharma si rahi thi...
Khuli khidaki ko ishara kar
Bistar par simti chali ja rahi thi..


Maine
Uska ishara samjha
Aur dabe paw.n ja kar
Khidki band kar di


Mud kar dheka to
Chandini ja chuki thi
Kuchh
Issi tarh jaise
Tumhare pyar ki sheetal
Chandini mujhe chhooti hai
Jab tak tumhe baahon me loon
Tum ja chuki hoti ho

Last night
I was woken up
feeling a soft cool touch

saw that
the moon light after touching me
was smiling on my bed
humming something
acting coy
gestured to the open window
kept on shrinking on the bedspread

I caught her hint
and walking softly
and shut the window

As I turned back
the moonlight had gone off
something like
the cool moonlight of your love
touches me
and by the time
I try to take you in my arms
you are gone
