Chand Chhupa Badal Mein

 

Chand chhupa badal mein
Sharmake meri jaa
Aaja re aaja re
Aaja re aaja re

Chand chhupa badal mein
Sharmake meri jaa
Aaja re aaja re
Aaja re aaja re

Yeh dil uda uda jaaye
Aaj kisi ke milne ko
Pyaar mein jhoomta jaye
Aaj kisi ke milne ko

Chand chhupa badal mein
Sharmake meri jaa
Aaja re aaja re

Main yeh sochu saanjh savere
Kaise maine bitaye re
Tere bin kaise din mere**
Kaise maine bitaye re**

Main toh tumse aankh mila ke
Sab kuch keh jaati re
Chand chhupa badal mein
Sharmake meri jaa
Aaja re aaja re

Yeh nasha kya keh raha hai
Dilruba tu samjha ja
Jo nasha yeh keh raha hai
Dilruba tu samjha ja

Kya bataaun haal dil ka
Tu toh mera humraaz hai
Chand chhupa badal mein
Sharmake meri jaa
Aaja re aaja re

Friend

 

Through twists of time and changing days,
our hearts still find familiar ways.
No distance wide, no silence long,
can dim the bond that keeps us strong.

Pure and true, beyond all ties,
our friendship glows — it never dies.
Unspoken love, without demand,
no rule, no reason — just heart in hand.

We’ve fought, we’ve cried, we’ve walked apart,
yet you still live inside my heart.
And when I see you, all fades away —
a smile breaks free, as bright as day.

No matter the past, no matter the pain,
one glance, and it’s whole again.
For friendship — that gentle, endless art —
is the truest feeling of every heart.

Forever friend - ನಿತ್ಯ ಸ್ನೇಹ

 

Through time and change, we always find a way,
our bond stays pure, come night or day.
Unspoken love, no rule, no end,
the truest gift — a lifelong friend.
No fight, no pain can tear apart,
the smile they bring heals every heart.
When eyes meet, all worries bend,
for nothing’s realer than a friend.

ಕಾಲ ಬದಲಾಗಿದರೂ ದಾರಿ ಸಿಗುತ್ತದೆ,
ಸ್ನೇಹದ ಬಾಂಧವ್ಯ ಎಂದೆಂದಿಗೂ ಉಳಿಯುತ್ತದೆ.
ನಿಯಮವಿಲ್ಲದ, ನಿಸ್ವಾರ್ಥ ಪ್ರೀತಿ,
ಸ್ನೇಹವೇ ಜೀವನದ ನಿಜವಾದ ಗೀತೆ.
ಜಗಳವೂ ಬಂದು ಹಾದುಹೋಗುತ್ತದೆ,
ನಗು ಮುಖದಲ್ಲಿ ಪುನಃ ಅರಳುತ್ತದೆ.
ಕಣ್ಣುಗಳು ಭೇಟಿಯಾದ ಕ್ಷಣದಲ್ಲಿ,
ಹೃದಯ ಹೇಳುತ್ತದೆ — “ನೀನೇ ನನ್ನ ಸ್ನೇಹ!”

Only Once we love - ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಮಾತ್ರ ಪ್ರೀತಿ

It happens once… just once in a soul’s time,
when the heart forgets reason, rhythm, and rhyme.
A glance, a smile — and the world stands still,
the sky learns silence, the winds lose will.

You may meet a thousand faces again,
but never that one heartbeat the same.
For love — true love — doesn’t come twice,
it carves its name once, and stays for life.

Maybe they felt it, maybe they lied,
maybe they stayed, or maybe they died.
But that first fire, that sacred ache —
no truth, no fake, can ever break.

Years may pass, the seasons spin,
yet the echo of that love still lives within.
You fall just once — and though hearts may roam,
that one forever becomes your home.

ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಮಾತ್ರ… ಆತ್ಮ ಸ್ಪರ್ಶಿಸುವ ಕ್ಷಣ,
ಹೃದಯ ಮರೆತುಹೋಗುತ್ತದೆ ಲಯ, ತಾಳ, ಧ್ವನಿಯನ್ನ.
ಒಂದು ನೋಟ, ಒಂದು ನಗು — ಲೋಕ ನಿಲ್ಲುತ್ತದೆ,
ಆಕಾಶವೂ ಮೌನ, ಗಾಳಿ ನಿಂತು ನೋಡುವುದು.

ಸಾವಿರ ಮುಖಗಳು ಮತ್ತೆ ಎದುರಾದರೂ,
ಆ ಸ್ಪಂದನೆ, ಆ ತಡಿತ — ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆ ಬರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.
ಪ್ರೀತಿ ನಿಜವಾದುದು — ಎರಡು ಬಾರಿ ಬರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ,
ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಬಂದು ಹೃದಯದ ಗೋಡೆಗೆ ಶಾಶ್ವತವಾಗಿ ಅಚ್ಚಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.

ಅವರು ಅನುಭವಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೋ, ಮೋಸಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾರೋ,
ಹಿಂದಿರುಗಿದ್ದಾರೋ, ಅಥವಾ ದೂರವಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೋ —
ಆ ಮೊದಲ ಬೆಂಕಿ, ಆ ನಿಶ್ಶಬ್ದ ನೋವು,
ಸತ್ಯವಾಗಲಿ, ಸುಳ್ಳಾಗಲಿ — ಎಂದಿಗೂ ಮಾಯವಾಗದು.

ವರ್ಷಗಳು ಹಾದರೂ, ಋತುಗಳು ಬದಲಾದರೂ,
ಆ ಪ್ರೀತಿಯ ಪ್ರತಿಧ್ವನಿ ಒಳಗೇ ನಿಲ್ಲುತ್ತದೆ.
ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಮಾತ್ರ ಬಿದ್ದರೂ, ಪ್ರೀತಿಯ ಆ ತಾಣ —
ಜೀವನದ ಅಂತ್ಯವರೆಗೂ ಆಗುತ್ತದೆ ನಿನ್ನ ಮನೆ.

ಅಮ್ಮಾ... ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರಾಣದ ಬೆಳಕು

ಅಮ್ಮಾ ಇಲ್ಲದ ಜೀವನವೆಂದರೆ,
ಕನಸಿಲ್ಲದ ನಿದ್ರೆ, ದಾರಿಯಿಲ್ಲದ ಪಯಣ.
ಅವಳ ನಗು ನನ್ನ ಬೆಳಕು,
ಅವಳ ಮಾತು ನನ್ನ ನಡಿಗೆಗೆ ದಿಕ್ಕು.

ಅವಳು ನನ್ನ ಕಣ್ಣೀರನ್ನು ತೊಳೆದು,
ಮಳೆಬಿರುಗಾಳಿಯಲಿ ಛತ್ರಿಯಂತೆ ನಿಂತಳು.
ದಾರಿ ತಪ್ಪಿದಾಗ ಹಿಡಿದಳು ಕೈ,
ಬಿದ್ದು ಹೋದಾಗ ಎಬ್ಬಿಸಿದಳು ಪ್ರೀತಿ.

ಅವಳಿಲ್ಲದೆ ಈ ಜಗವೇ ಖಾಲಿ,
ಪ್ರತಿ ಕ್ಷಣವೂ ಕತ್ತಲೆಯ ವಾಸಿ.
ಅಮ್ಮಾ — ನೀನೆ ನನ್ನ ದೇವತೆ,
ನಿನ್ನಿಲ್ಲದ ಜೀವವು ನಿಶ್ಶಬ್ದವೇ.

ನೀ ತೋರಿಸಿದ ದಾರಿ ನನ್ನ ಬೆಳಕು,
ನೀ ನೀಡಿದ ಪ್ರೀತಿ ನನ್ನ ಶಕ್ತಿ.
ನಿನ್ನ ಸ್ಮರಣೆ ಎಂದೆಂದಿಗೂ ನನ್ನೊಂದಿಗೆ —
ಯಾಕೆಂದರೆ, ನಿನ್ನಿಲ್ಲದ ಜೀವನ,
ಕಲ್ಪನೆಗೂ ಅಸಾಧ್ಯ.

Circle of Existence

 Is death the end, or the birth of a new?
The final breath, or the first of truth?
It seems so easy, this slipping away
yet what lies beyond, none can say.

Is life a circle, or a single line?
Do we fade, or simply realign?
The stars, the seas, the breath, the flame
all whisper softly the same refrain:

Nothing truly ends, nor stays apart,
the universe loops within the heart.
It starts, it ends, it starts again
a circle, unbroken, without pain.

Endless Conversations

There’s more to say, so much to tell
I want to talk with you for long, long hours,
for long, long days,
for long, long years,
for long, long lives beyond this one.

The only joy that fills my soul
is knowing you still listen,
and I can still speak
I never want to stop,
not even for a breath,
not even for a heartbeat.

Yet now my mouth is still,
my voice has turned to silence.
Words no longer pass my lips
only my soul speaks to you,
in endless, gentle whispers
neither the world nor you will never hear.

Whispers of the Soul

 I wake at night, unknown, unheard
some soul keeps me awake.

Do souls truly whisper in this world?
Or is it just the wind that aches?

Is there one who thinks of me,
beyond this veil of breath and bone?
Souls, do they exist, or fade unseen?
Confusion hums, yet I’m not alone.

For somewhere deep, a smile begins,
as if a soul has found its twin.
Each silent moment speaks with you,
each heartbeat hums the same refrain.

I feel you near, though far you seem,
the one I speak to in my dreams.
My endless talks, both soft and true 
my soul forever speaks with you.

Broken

Broken so many times I lost the count.
Shattered, yet still I stood,
watching the world undo me piece by piece.

They broke me
and the one I hoped would bring color,
came only when the night had swallowed all light.

Now silence fills my days,
no words left to speak,
no questions left to ask
just the quiet end
of what once was life.

THE BEAUTY.....

Magic and Music moves along with you,
When you walk, the anklets, bangles,
Pulls the heart to admire the beau,
And hear the sweet music of jingles.

Is it the eyes or the small cute nose,
Which is complimenting for your beauty,
As beautiful as the just blossomed rose,
Without my conscious, I become a flirty.

Charming you, never wish to take my eyes away,
Every second with you, most precious moments of life.

Gratitude for Eternal Love

Thanks for a love beyond touch or sight,

where only hearts could truly see.

We spoke in silence,
yet our voice lives in me.

A bond beyond time,
beyond death, beyond all—
our love still surrounds me,
gentle, eternal, whole.

Miss You, Mom

 

When you were here, Mom,
The world felt gentle

Every breath was light,
Every path, a song of ease.

With you beside me,
Life bloomed in colors I didn’t know could fade.

But then, bit by bit,
You slipped into the quiet 
Like twilight stealing the edge of day.
And soon the clouds gathered,
Wrapping my world in shadow and ache.

Now, I reach for you in every silence,
And all my heart can whisper is
I miss you, I miss you…
There are no other words to say.

The Echo of Losing

I lost, and lost, and lost again—
Each loss a whisper carved in time.
For life, in all its tender grace,
Teaches love through what we leave behind.

I walked the endless road of days,
Holding moments that slipped like sand.
I loved and love dissolved to mist,
I was cared for  yet it drifted from my hand.

Even when the world held me close,
I felt it fade, as shadows do at dawn.
Loss became my quiet companion,
A song I never meant to learn, but sang along.

Now, losing feels like breathing air,
Too known, too deep to part.
And winning  oh, that distant dream 
Still flickers softly in my heart.
