For past few years
I have been searching
for a person called ‘ME!’

beneath this calm sky
I am amidst today,
the stars and the darkness.

The clouds have enveloped
the person called ‘ME!’
so intensely that,

that person is not
even recognizable.
I see a strange face,

a stranger
disguised in the clothes
of ‘ME’.

May be a rain
could make that stranger
recognizable
and turn him into ‘ME!’

hum bhool gaye hain rakh ke kahin
woh cheez jise dil kahte the
woh cheez jise dil kahte hain

ummeed bhi ajnabi lagti hai
aur dard paraya lagta hai
aaine mein jisko dekha tha
bichhda hua saaya lagta hai

na jaane kahan chhod aaye hain
woh shakhs jise hum jaante the
aahat bhi sunai deti nahin
parchhayeein se hum pahchaante the

hum bhool gaye hain rakh ke kahin
woh cheez jise dil kahte the
woh cheez jise dil kahte hain
