it simply is ...

Its not just in low tide … when the waters r deceptive
Or into the higher waves … that guard the ocean’s secrets

Its not only in the meadow … where the grass is so overgrown
Or in the depth of the deserts … that centuries of blizzards haven’t shown

Its not just by the rainfall … when each petal shimmers of dew
Or in the humming of the birds … all hear, yet heard by few

It’s a canopy … a ray … a smile … that reaches across the seas
A hammock … a sea-shell … a drive … that stretches beyond the forests
It’s a chord … a drum … an orchestra … that adheres to no beat
It simply is … the droning … the humming … that says ‘I miss u’


humming aloud

chain kaisa ... jo pehlu mein tu hi nahi
maar daale na ... dard-e-judaai kahin
rut haseen hai to kya ... chandani hai to kya
chandni zulm hai ... aur judai sitam
shaam-e-gham ki kasam ... aaj ghamgiin hain hum
aa bhi ja ... aa bhi ja ... aaj mere sanam
