Jo usne kabhi kaha nahin Woh sunne ki aadat lag gayi Jaanleva kehte hain jisse Humko woh rog mohabbat lag gayi... Medhavi Jism yeh Tera ghulaam ho gaya Dhadkan ki dastak bhi Teri pehchaan ho gaya Phir mohabbat mein katl e aam ho gaya Aur kehte hain log ki phir naam mera badnaam ho gaya Medhavi

Gustaakh dil ka bas itna sa kasoor thha Mohabbat mein aapki zarra zarra iska masroof thha Kabhi socha kahein aapko yeh daastaan e ishq Phir samjha ki bayaan karna bhi fizool thha... Jab rag rag mein shaamil junoon ho Uss jism ko kahan ek pal ka sukoon ho Jab dhadkan bhi dhadakne lage fariyaad mein Aur saansein bhi chalne lagein ussi ke saath mein... Toh samajh jaana ae bekasoor mulaazim dil ke Mohabbat mein Tera naam bhi shaamil ho gaya hai... Medhavi

Hai kitna kasoorwaar tu Mujhe deewana banaane mein... Hai kitna kasoorwaar tu Mujhe deewana banaane mein... Yeh sochte sochte tujhpar ghazal likh rahi hun main... Teri bekhabari ko junoon bana kar... Teri bekhabari ko junoon bana kar... Aaj Phir khud par hans rahi hun main... Tujhmein hai baat woh kya Yeh ab bhi jaanti nahin hun main.. Tujhmein hai baat woh kya Yeh ab bhi jaanti nahin hun main.. Bas phir tujhko dekh kar tujhse aur mohabbat kar rahi hun main... Ibaadat Ibaadat ka naam dun agar... Ibaadat Ibaadat ka naam dun agar... Toh khuda se mukar rahi hun main... Ibaadat Ibaadat ka naam dun agar... Ibaadat Ibaadat ka naam dun agar... Toh khuda se mukar rahi hun main... Phir bhi tere naam ka kalma phir se dohraa rahi hun main Zindagi tere bin guzarni hai Yeh bhi jaanti hun main... Zindagi tere bin guzarni hai Yeh bhi jaanti hun main... Phir bhi apne aaj se kal ko tabaah kar rahi hun main..

Rona zaroori bhi hai Duniyaa saaf nazar aati hai Dard faraar ho jaata hai Aur neend ghar aa jaati hai Medhavi

Kayi baar apne dard ki goonj se Apnon ko bachaana paddta hai Kyunki dard hota hai hamara apna Par dil unka bhi dukhaata hai... -Medhavi 29.11.15

Aadhi raat ko pyaar jataate hain Aur phir kahin aap gum ho jaate hain Kya daastaan sunaayenge aap humko Hum aapko aap hi ka afsaana sunaate hain Jab hote hain aap tanha Toh yaad hamari aati hai Warna maujoodgi bhi hamari Aapko choo kar guzar jaati hai Saath reh kar paas aa na sake aapke Kisi bhi Baat se dil chura na sake aapka Hum bhi haar gaye Hamara pyaar bhi haar gaya Aapke aage aitbaar bhi haar gaya Ab ummeed na karein Toh bhi takleef ho Ummeed baandh lein Toh dil ke nazdeek ho Phir dil dukhaaoge Ya humko aazmaaoge Hum toh yahin khadde rahenge Intezaar mein Kabhi pyaar ho jaaye tumhe bhi Toh bata dena Iss zindagi ka koi matlab Shaayad uss din humko bhi mil jaayega Medhavi 24.11.15

Neend ka pata uss waqt kho gaya Jab aankhein khul gayi aur Haqeeqat saamne aa gayi... Diya bujh gaya Andhera ho gaya Kehne ko thhi mohabbat ki parchaayi Ek jhonka sa sang laayi Zara si hawa chali Aur ek pal mein sab lutt gaya... Medhavi 24.11.15

Ho tum aadat ya mera junoon ho Dard ki wajah ya mera sukoon ho... Faasla chahti hun par judaayi se darti hun Khaamoshi chahti hun par tanhaayi se darti hun... Jaa rahe ho tum dooor mujhse Kuch yeh dil ghabraata bhi hai Aana hai laut kar paas mere hi Yeh khud ko dil samjhaata bhi hai... Kab bandh gayi dor yeh saanson ki tumse pata na chala Iss khayaal mein yeh dil waqt guzaarta bhi hai Tumhari kami khalegi yeh jaanta bhi hai Tumhari mohabbat saath rahegi yeh maanta bhi hai... Phir bhi dil karta hai tumhara haath pakad kar rok lun Tum ja na sako, koi bahaana bana ke rok dun Par kahin na kahin yeh bhi haqeeqat ke aayeene mein dikhta hai Ki dooori se jo beasar ho kuch aisa hamara rishta hai... Toh jaao mujhse dooor tumhe de di maine arzi Yaad karna mujhe ya bhool jaana tumhari marzi Bas itna rakhna khayaal ki koi hai tumhare intezaar mein kahin bahut dooor Jo har raat tumhara khwaab liye sota hai Jo tumhe yaad kar kar har dusre lamhe rota hai Aur koi jo tum...

Hai bhi aur nahin bhi.. Woh hawa hai jo choomti hai Aur woh bhi hawa hai jo aandhi ban khanronchti hai... Woh adaa hai jo dil churaati hai Aur woh bhi adaa hai jo dil dukhaati hai... Woh dard hai jo aankhein bhar deta hai Aur woh bhi dard hai jo jism chheelta hai... Woh pyaar hai jo har khwaab sach kar deta hai Aur woh bhi pyaar hai jo har khwaab toddta hai... Woh izhaar hai jo choo jaata hai ek hi nazar mein Aur woh bhi izhaar hai jo bayaan ho kar bhi ankaha hai... Woh khushi hai jo aankhein nam kar deti hai Aur woh bhi khushi hai jo jaan le jaati hai... Haar woh bhi hai jo jeet se hai badhkar Aur haar woh bhi hai jo khatm kar deti hai ummeed ki seher... Woh yakeen hai jo ummeed deta hai Aur woh bhi yakeen hai jo baar baar toot ta hai... Hai kitna kuch ek sa Phir bhi wajood hain alag kyun Zindagi hai aazaad yeh Phir har modd par sarhad kyun... Jawaab agar hai har sawaal ka Toh phir talaash hai kis ki Khud par hai yakeen agar ...

Na jaane kahan daba sa thha, yeh zalzala, Hum mein kahan thhi himmat-e-waffa, Bas tere tasavvur mein duba kar palkein do pal, Meri nazar se sharm-o-haya ne vidaa le li... Saare khauff kahin ashqon mein, ghul se gaye, Saare haqeeqaton ke kaafile, dhul se gaye, Ki thaama khud ka haath tera maan kar, Kahe huye lafzon ko tere, Phir se kaanon mein pehne hadh se aage badh gaye... Ab aar ho ya paar ho, jo bhi anjaam ho, Ya chaahe waffa kar bhi hum badnaam hon, Todd di humne janzeerein, beddiyaan hijr ki, Ab tum saath dedoge, toh mar hi jaayenge... Medhavi 03.11.15

I know what you are saying is right. Good for you and me... but I know what is the best for us.. I know that the best maybe can never happen.. but I just know that I can spend my life with this bitter reality.. alone.. but not with anyone else. I don't know how I'd be able to do that.. how I'll get the strength to take that stand... but I know that wen I'll just close my eyes and think of you.. have all the strength.. I just know that you are worth the effort.. I just know that you are worth every sacrifice... Though its just a few months.. just a matter of a bunch of weeks.. but I won't say that we hardly know each other...because I have never known somebody so close.. i never shared this emotional intimacy with anyone.. I feel i know each bit of you.. each expression of you.. each mood of yours. You are not just an entity but an entire universe for me. I know, I'm saying big things.. and talking about things that just happen in story books and imagi...

At times I think and think too deep, has god sent you to my life for a reason, or you were just a naughty soul which rolled towards mine due to gravity? At times I think and think too vague, we are so different, like poles apart, have we met to accomplish something together, like life on another planet or to learn the language of dolphins? At times I think and think too weird, you and I just met and clicked like a picture, but the negatives developed into something called love, but the pictures are still not in our hands...  we met, we laughed, we loved too much, are we destined? Are we one single soul? Are we meant to be? Things happened.. which were beautiful, things happened.. which were lame... love happened without a trace of knowledge n now we cant go back again... Medhavi 27.10.15

Waqt woh kitna haseen thha, Jab waffa ka yakeen thha, Un aankhon mein sirf mera suroor thha, Tumko paa kar har zarra maghroor thha, Na jaane woh hawa ka jhonkaa kab aaya, Kahin kho gaya woh zariya ibaadat ka, Benaam ho gayi saari kasmein, Beghar ho gaye saikaron lamhe, Shamaa jalti rahi, waqt pighalta raha, Ummeedon ka daayara, ghat-ta gaya, Ab bas kuch aadhi adhuri beeti baatein hain, Jo rooh ke darmiyaan kahin mehfooz hain, Aur aaj bhi har sheh par tera shukriya karne, Aur mohabbat tujhse karne mein, har zarra masroof hai... Medhavi 18.10.15

Sharaab se ab nasha nahin hota mujhko Tu tasavvur mein kuch is kadar rehta hai Ki kadam saath nahin dete kabhi kabhi Par tera khayaal har saans se yeh kehta hai Bhula do mujhe agar bhula sako Mitta do woh lamhe agar mitta sako Par hum rahenge yahin ghar basaa kar Khayaal khayaal par kabzaa kar Tadpaayenge bhi, sataayenge bhi Aur phir muskuraake naam tumhara pukaarenge Ki kya karein shikaayat unki khuda se Unki barbaad karne ki bhi adaa itni kaatilaana hai... Medhavi 18.10.15

Barbaad ho gaye unki mohabbat mein hum haste haste, unke bina mann lagna hi bhool gaya shaayad, jab haath mein unka haath nahin, raahon mein unka saath nahin, toh zindagi bhi kahan zindagi rahi, bandagi mein waffa kahan bandh saki, unko gale na laga sake toh sharaab gale se utaar li, barbaadiyon se dil ki zameen sawaar li, aur phir unke naam ek shaam haar di... Medhavi 18.10.15

I can't recall the moment I fell in love with you, I can't recollect the thoughts that ran within my mind in that moment. I can just smile and look above the sky and thank my stars, that just a moment came and blurred all scars.  The heartbreaks that broke my spirit don't mean a thing anymore, as with you I found myself and I became more sure. Sure of my dreams, desires and myself, you made my life like a dream come true and now every time I pray, your name echoes. I sleep and wake up with a smile, I talk in my dreams and dream all day long, You have made my life beautiful beyond imagination and your love has colored my soul beyond re-creation. Medhavi 16.10.15

And there were some dreams I could never forget.. and eventually they became a part of me... I close my eyes and feel their being, standing before me as real as reality... No they aren't all good dreams, few are ugly too.. Some are broken and some are beautiful too.. They have their own way of completing me by leaving the stories untold, And keeping my heart bound and chaining my soul... Medhavi 01.09.15

Date: Wednesday, 3 August, 2011, 4:35 PM A poem that I wrote for Malhan's birthday :-)         Aaj subah phir jaldi uthna hai, lagta hai aaj phir ek yaadgaar din banna hai, Phir aaj nau baje ki class hai, cab mein phir honi koi bakwaas hai...     Cab mein shayad aaj bhi HITASHA late aayegi, lagta hai aaj woh tiffin mein fir paav bhaaji laayegi, SAKSHI  ko uske gate se pick karna padega, uss se chaadar aur paani ki bottle ka order dena padega, SHRUTI  ne phir shayad koi nayi shopping ki hogi, woh apna naya top pehen ke aati hogi...     MEDHAVI ki kahaaniyaan play karne ka time aa gaya hai, lagta hai aaj koi naya plan banne wala hai, BHARTI shayad aaj phir karegi kissiki acting, aur hum karenge SAKSHI  se fir kissiki setting, MALHAN ko koi competition mein aaj jaana hoga, cab ko ghumaane ka HITASHA ka naya bahaana hoga...     Aaj shayad fir baarish hogi, hamari cab fir traffic jam mein fans ja...

Kuch adhoori baat hai Udhar bhi Idhar bhi Pighal rahi hai raat Udhar bhi Idhar bhi Kuch dabe alfaaz Udhar bhi Idhar bhi Goonja hua sa saaz Udhar bhi Idhar bhi Faasalon ki shamaa Jal rahi udhar bhi idhar bhi Naamumkinon ki adaa Behki udhar bhi idhar bhi

Ek raat thhi Zaraa aadhi Zaraa poori si Andhera tha kuch Aur kuch roshni sindoori si Kuch lafz idhar ke thhe Kuch udhar ke toote huye se Kuch lamhe ateet ke Kuch aane wale kal ke adhoore se Kuch naghme Kuch nazmein thhi Kuch saamne Kuch parde ke peeche thhi Dabi si kuch muskuraahatein Ubhri huyi si aahatein Hawa ki bhi aawaaz sunaayi dene lagi Ki aaj tanhaayi aawaaz dene lagi Medhavi 04.06.15
