Ek Galat Fehmi

Vo humein samajhte hain, ye galat fehmi thi humein

apni hi khushgawar duniya mein ji rahe the hum.

Apno ke liye to bahut ladte rahe vo humse

aaj gairon ko bhi humse zyada samajhte hain wo.

Kehte hain ki samajhte hain humein,

bus hum hi nahin bayan karte apne dil ka  haal.

Aur jab spasht lafzon se dil ka haal zahir kiya humne,

kehte kuch nahin kehne ko hai unke paas.

Ab isko unka guroor samjhe hum,

ya samjhe isko gairon ke liye unke dil ka dard.

Par kaise samjhein isko hum

ki vo samjhte hain humare dil ka haal?

Vo humein samjhenge kabhi na kabhi,

shayad humare chale jaane ke baad.

Issi galat fehmi ke saath aaj bhi ji rahe hain hum, 

ek ummeed ek bekarari ke saath.

Chaand

Raat bhar chaand se batein ki humnein.

Kuch uski suni kuch apni bayaan ki humnein

Hazaaron taron ke beech tanha tha chaand.

Zindagi ki raah par,

kuch humari hi tarah, akela tha chaand.

Sardi ki raat mein apne dilon ka haal bataya,

humari halat dekh, bahut roya tha chaand.

Chaand ne kaha saath dega humara, 

din bhar na sahi,

raat ko gale lagakar, dard humara kum karega chaand.

Iraade to nek the chaand ke, apne dil ka raazgar banana 

chahta tha chaand.

Par kismat kahan thi humari ki uska saath milta,

Kabhi poonam sa poora, kabhi aadha adhoora,

Grehan lag gaya, chhipp gaya tha chaand.

Hum baithe rahe sardi ki ek aur raat mein, 

dhoondne khoye un lamhon ko phir ek baar.

Hum bhi chhipp jayenge yun hi,

Baithega humari umeed liye phir chaand.

A Reason To Pray

My tiny hands were folded thus

My head bowed down at His feet

My little heart was thanking Him

For my family, friends and the new doll

My father had just gifted me

A few years past and He was still there

From my idol he had become a friend

I would talk to Him and fight with Him

Question Him on a lot of things

Yet every night before I slept

My heart was in prayer still

From daily chants to festive delights

He was there with me through all the tough nights

From exam blues and relationship stress

He guided me as he held my hand.

My hands were folded thus

My head bowed down at His feet

My heart now tough was thanking Him

For the strength to carry on

Everyday I have a reason to pray

To thank him for being with me

Everyday I celebrate

His presence, His love for me

He is my Lord, my angel

My guiding light and my only friend

He is my reason to pray!

Let your prayer be pure, you don't need big reasons to pray, just pray for His presence and His guidance. This Diwali you can perform the Lakshmi Pooja on your own with your family using the Sampoorna Lakshmi Pooja Pack which contains all the essentials you need along with a CD to guide you through the Pooja. I will be using the Lakshmi Pooja pack this Diwali so that I don't have to run from shop to shop to find out all the essentials I need - in fact all basic materials required for the pooja match the requirements as mentioned in the Skanda Purana. There is a booklet (with script written in 6 languages) and audio CD containing the necessary shlokas and Shree Vinayak Ashtottarashata Naamaavali for performing the pooja.
