Poonchon is chaandni se
Ki hamne usse kya kya kaha hai…
Ya
Kya kya nahin kaha hai
Poonchon usse ki hamari bahas
Kyun aur kab
Shuroo hui aur kyun aur kab khatm hui
Poonchon usse ki hamne use rokne ki
Koshish kyun ki……


Shayad
Chaandni tumko jawab na de paaye
In sawalon ke


Shayad 
voh tumhe yeh na bata sake
ki ham tumhe deewanawar pyar karte hain
shayad
voh tumhe yeh bhi na bata sake
Ki ham saari raat usse baatein karte rahe
Shayad
Yeh bhi bataane mein sharm aaye
Ki ham saare jahan ki chaandni apni
Baahon mein bhar kar batana chahte the
Ki
Ham tumhe itna
Bas itna sa pyar karte hain………


Aur shayad
Chaandni ko yeh bhi bataana na gawaara ho
Ki ham usko rok kar usse
Tumhaara haal poonchte rahe
Ki usko apne aagosh mein lekar
Uski massomiyat mein
Tumhaare massom chehre ki jhalak
Paate rahe….


Aur shayad uski samajh
Mein yeh bhi na aaye
Ki ham deewanon ki tarah
Tanhaiyon mein bhi tumhe yaad karke
Kyun muskuraate hain….
Behtar hoga tum chaandni se
Kutchh bhi na poonchon………

Ask this moonlight
what all I told her
Or
What all I did not
Ask her
That where and how our argument
Started
And where and how
It got over……..
Ask her why did
I try to hold her back………………..

Maybe
The moonlight may be unable to
Answer these queries………

Maybe
She may not be able to tell you
That I love you as crazy
Maybe she may not tell you
That whole night I kept on
Talking to her
Maybe
She might blush telling you
That I feel like holding all of her
Scattered over whole universe
In my arms
And tell you
That I love you just this little bit
This little teeny-weeny bit………….

And maybe
She may not tell you
That I stop her and keep asking
About you
Or that holding her close to me
Try to see innocence of your face
In its innocent light….

And maybe
She may not understand
That even in my loneliness
I keep on reminiscing of you
And keep smiling crazily,,,
Perhaps
It would be better
If you don’t ask her anything…
