#Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi

[hannibalismos-jaaneman]

just realised that hannigram is just a 60's and 70's bollywood film romance

It's as if sparks are pouring down through my veins, from head to toe My consciousness is light and unburdened, but it's as if now nothing is under my control

Sept aa gaya aur pata bhi nahi chala, aaj teachers day hai aur pichla teacher's day mujhe bakhoobi yaad hai. yaar yeh samay bhi na kitni ajeeb cheez hai jitni upma se upma karu kam hai, kahu ki yeh samay inn ghirte- hatte baadlon ki tarah hai aur inn patton ke girne ki tarah hai aur iss toofan ke jaane ki tarah hai. yeh samay woh pighalti ice-cream ki tarah hai, woh signal badalne ki tarah hai, achaanak aane waali modoslaadhar baarish ki tarah hai aur aasmaan mai. ek indradhanush ki tarah hai toh bhi shayad kam hoga. Yeh saal kaise beeta pata hi nahinchala, yoon bhadrapad aa gaya aur keval kuch mahine hi bache hain yeh saal khatam hone main. yeh samay bhi na bohot kamaal hai. Pichle septmeber mujhe laga tha, ki shayad nahi ho paayega. Yeh zindagi, mujhse nahi ho paayegi, kyonki yaar mushkil hota hai, har din hospital jaana aur phir kaam, kaam aur hospital, lekin humne kiya. September guzra, ek ek din gine the humne ungliyon par zaroor, lekin kab december aa gaya pata hi nahi chala. Naye saal ki kuch zyada khushi nahi thi, bas yahi dua thi ki yeh sal khishiyaan laaye. January, fervary ek aisi hawa ka jhonka laaye jisse hum aaj tak waakif hi nahi the. Aur yeh hawa ka jhonka jis dhara se aaya tha humari zulfe udane ke liye, waise hi chala gaya, shayad kuch bikhri zulfe chhod gaya. Yeh saal guzar toh raha tha, lekin aisa lag raha tha ki hum sthir haim kuch badal nahi raha tha. Jitni bhi koshish kar lo yeh patthar hil hi nahi raha, yeh dhakkan khul hi nahi raha. Phir kya, socha aise rote hue raatein guzaarna thik nahi hai, yoon ghar main band rehna thik nahi hai, kuch toh galat hai. Madad li, shayad kuch behtar hua, shayad nahi. lekin inn sab ke beech, maine bohot yaadein banayi. Woh ek baarish, woh ek sunset, aur na jaane kitne saari hassi joh shayad nahi hoti agar maine zindagi ka haath chhod diya hota. Kuch din aise bhi the jinmein mujhe laga ki isse khush toh main nahi jo sakti, kuch raatein iss kadar thi ki mujhe laga ki mujhse dukhi koi nahi ho sakta. Ho sakta ho ki aapka samay itna achha na chal raha ho, lekin phir bhi, samay kaisa bhi ho, yeh chhoti chhoti khudhiyaan zaroor laata hain. September aa gaya aaj aur pata bhi nahi chala. Shayad, woh dhakkan thoda dheela ho gaya.

सितंबर आ गया और पता भी नहीं चला, आज टीचर्स दे है और इससे पिछला शिक्षक दिवस मुझे याद है। यार ये समय भी ना कितनी अजीब चीज़ है, जितनी उपमा से उपमा कम है, कहू की ये समय इन घिरते-हटते बादलों की तरह है और इन पत्तों के गिरने की तरह है और इस तूफ़ान के जाने की तरह है। ये समय वो पिगलती आइसक्रीम की तरह है, वो सिग्नल बदलने की तरह है, अचानक आने वाली मूसलाधार बारिश की तरह है और आसमान में एक इंद्रधनुष की तरह है तो शायद काम होगा। ये साल कैसे बीता पता ही नहीं, यूं भाद्रपद आ गया और केवल कुछ महीने ही बचे हैं ये साल खत्म होने में। ये समय भी ना बहुत कमाल है। पिछले सितंबर मुझे लगा था, शायद नहीं हो पाएगा। ये जिंदगी, मुझसे नहीं हो पाएगी, क्योंकि यार मुश्किल होता है, हर दिन हॉस्पिटल जाना और फिर काम, काम और हॉस्पिटल, लेकिन हमने किया। सितंबर गुजरा, एक एक दिन गिनें थे हमने उंगलियों पर जरूर, लेकिन दिसंबर कब आ गया पता ही नहीं चला। नए साल की कुछ ज्यादा खुशी नहीं थी, बस यहीं दुआ थी कि ये साल खुशियां लाए। जनवरी, फरवरी एक ऐसी हवा का झोंका लाए जिसे हम आज तक वाकिफ ही नहीं थे। और ये हवा का झोंका जिस धारा से आया था हमा��ी जुल्फे उड़ान के लिए, वैसे ही चला गया, शायद कुछ बिखरी जुल्फे छोड़ गया। ये साल गुजर तो रहा था, लेकिन ऐसा लग रहा था कि हम स्थिर हैं, कुछ बदल नहीं रहा था। जितनी भी कोशिश कर लो ये पत्थर हिल ही नहीं रहा, ये धक्कन खुल ही नहीं रहा। फिर क्या, सोचा ऐसे रोते हुए रातें गुज़ारना ठीक नहीं है, यूं घर में बंद रहना ठीक नहीं है, कुछ तो गलत है। मदद ली, शायद कुछ बेहतर हुआ, शायद नहीं। लेकिन इन सब के बीच, मैंने बहुत यादें बनाईं। वो एक बारिश, वो एक सनसैट, और ना जाने कितनी सारी हंसी जो शायद नहीं होती अगर मैंने जिंदगी का हाथ छोड़ दिया होता। कुछ दिन ऐसे भी थे जिनमें मुझे लगा कि मुझसे ज्यादा खुश कोई नहीं है, कुछ रातें इस कदर थी कि मुझे लगा कि मुझसे दुखी कोई नहीं हो सकता। हो सकता है कि आपका समय इतना अच्छा न चल रहा हो, लेकिन फिर भी, समय कैसा भी हो, ये छोटी-छोटी खुशियां जरूर लाता है। सितंबर आ गया आज और पता भी नहीं चला। शायद, वो धक्कन थोड़ा ढीला हो गया।

wrote this at 8:30 am, first thought in the morning. It's because I never thought I could make it to September. I'm glad. Life throws shit at you, but please remember to breathe, and it'll pass on. Sept-Dec patch was very rough for me, but it passed and I'm glad it did. This is your reminder that it'll pass.

jisse zindagi dhund rahi hai, kya yeh vo makaam mera hai

yahan chain se bas ruk jaau, kyu dil yeh mujhe kehta hai

jazbat naye se mile hai, jaane kya asar yeh hua hai

ik aas mili fir mujhko, jo kubul kisine kiya hai

han kissi-shayar-ki-ghazal jo de ruh ko sukoon ke pal, koi mujhko yun mila hai jaise banjaare ko ghar

naye mausam ki seher ya sard mein dopahar, koi mujhko yun mila hai jaise banjaare ko ghar

[hereisnxbiya]

Zindagi ka sab se bara mazaq yeh hai ke insaan wohi karta hai jo usay nahin karna chahiye.

Love English music all you want, but NOTHING, I repeat NOTHING, hits harder than desi music. Like every single singer has their own trademark genre which they can execute PERFECTLY?? 

Can we talk about Arijit’s Mai gehra tamas tu sunehra sawera main tera in Kalank? 

or his Tum sath ho ya na ho kya fark hai, bedard thi zindagi bedard hai in Agar tum sath ho? 

or Tujh sang sukhi roti bhaye in Mast Magan? Ok leave that. 

Lets talk about Atif’s Khayalon me lakho baaten yun toh keh gaya, bola kuch na tere saamne in Tu jaane na?

or Rafta rafta tera hua, tere bin mai hu benishan in Tera hua?

or Tenu lakhan ton chhupa ke rakhaan akkhaan te sajaa ke tu ae meri wafaa, rakh apna bana ke main tere layi aan yaara in Dil Diyan Gallan? Ok leave that

Let's talk about KK's Chaand Teri roshni ka halka sa ek saaya hai in Ajab Si?

Or dil kyun yeh mera shor kare, idhar nahi udhar nahi teri orr chale in Dil Kyu Yeh Mera?

Or lut Gaye hum teri mohabbat me in Tadap Tadap? Ok leave that.

Let's talk about Jubin Nautiyal's tum se jo mil gaye, Mausam khil gaye, khudse ladne Lage hum sawarne lage in sawarne lage?

Or Mausam mohabbaton ke, lamhe ye chahaton ke apne liya bane hai maan le in Gazab ka hai din?

Or tere bina main na rahu mere bina tu in raatan lambiyan? Fine, leave that as well. 

Lets talk about Shreya Ghoshal's kaise huzurji ye lab dikhlaaye, chuppi lagake bhi gazab hai yeh dhaye in saibo.

Or Ye ishq haaye baithe bithaaye jannat dikhaye hain in ye ishq?

Or Dil bharta nahi, aankhen rajjti nahi, chaahe kitna bhi dekhti jaaun, waqt jaaye main rok na paaun in Thodi Der?

And DO NOT get me started on Mohammad Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Lata Ji, Asha ji and Sonu Nigam. Desi songs are peak lyrics, romance, emotion and vocals. You're straight up wrong if you think ANYTHING can beat that. I love Taylor, 1D and all, but Hindi songs? Absolutely unmatched!

Comment/reblog you favourite lyrics below!

[nirmiti]

Yeh jo guzar raha hai,

Waqt nahi, zindagi hai. 🌙

[sadaf-e-mohabbat]

Aanewala pal, jaanewala hai, Ho sake toh isme, zindagi bitadoo Pal jo yeh jaane wala hai...

....

Ek baar waqt se lamha gira kahin, Wahan dastaan mili lamha kahin nahi... Thoda sa hasaake, thoda se rulaake, Pal yeh bhi jaanewala hai ho ho....

This song and its lyrics especially, heals me. ❤️‍🩹

Wish I understood its meaning earlier, but it's never too late ❤️‍🩹.

Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar, and Mohammad Rafi really dominate my playlist.

Kisi aise insan ke sath rehna jis se mohabat na ho mushkil hai ya kisi aise insan ke bager rehna jis se buht zayada mohabat ho mushkil hai ?

Kisi aise insaan ke bager rehna jisse mohabbat ho mushkil toh hain per ab kya kare zindagi hain apni.Aur apni zindagi ke sath daga toh nahi kar sakte na? Aur tumhara wajood bas ek insaan ke liye nahi hota.Bohot saare log hain duniya main jo tumhe chahte hain.Toh tumhe ek khush haal zindagi jeeni chahiye.Chalo tum uske bager nahi reh paa rahe.Kya pata woh bade maze se zindagi jee raha ho?

Agar insaan Acha hain aur tumhe usse Shurawaat main mohabbat na ho toh yeh bhi ho sakta hain tumhe usse mohabbat ho jaye.Akhir kaar insaan Acha ho toh mohabbat ho hi jaati hain.Yahi toh buniyad hain saari kamyaab aur khush haal arranged marriages ki.😊

[zindagi-se-darte-ho]

"Tum mujhse puchte ho ke mujhe tumhari kya baat achhi lagti hai. Mai tumse yeh kaise kahun ki mujhe tumhari kaunsi baat achhi nahi lagti? Apne ird-gird tumhara ghumna, mere wajood se na hatne wali tumhari gehri bolti nazre, tumhari har waqt ki tawajjo, tumhara jaan chhirakne waala haar andaz. Haar bar jab tum mere maa-baap ke liye ehtaraman khadey hote ho toh main tumhare samne jhukne lagti hoon.

Aur kya kuchh nahi jo mujhe tumhare samne moum nahi karta. Ek chhotey se ghar ke iss pankhe waley kamre mein tumhari yeh gehri neend, mineral water bottle ko dhundne ke bajaye nalke ka paani peelena, handwash chhorke ek saste sabun se haath dhona, apni plate ko meri maa ke haath ke pakey khaane se baar baar bharna. Par main yeh sab tumko kabhi nahi bataungi.

Tumhare haar wadey par hasungi, tumhare haar baat ka mazaak udaungi. Tum mujhe sang-e-marmar samajhte ho, toh samajhte raho. Main tumhare samne rait ki dewar nahi ban sakti. Mujhe toot janey se khauf aata hai."

Darakht

//

maut ka ilaaj dhundh raha hai shayad, yeh darakht bhi meri tarah tanha hai shayad.

zindagi mein ab hariyali nahi hogi kabhi, bas lamhe apne gin raha hai shayad.

woh inteqal ki ghadi jo aankh micholi khel rahi, uske peeche peeche daud kar thak gaya hai shayad.

na paati hain saath, na chidiya ka ghonsla, sansaar ne faariq ise abhi se kar diya hai shayad.

hayaat ke haalaat apne bheetar samet ta hua, zindagi ka raaz kahin khoj raha hai shayad.

kya use gale laga loon main bhi? ya chum loon, mere saath use bhi khaai mein sulaa doon main shayad.

[harf-e-kun]

Meri Zindagi To Firaq Hai,

Wo Azal Se Dil Main Makeen Sahi

Wo Nigah e Shouq Sey Dour Hen,

Rag e Jaan Sey Laakh Qareeb Sahi!

Humain Jaan Deni Hai Ek Din,

Wo Kisi Tarhan Wo Kahin Sahi

Humain Aap Khinchiye Daar Par,

Jo Nahin Koi To Hum Hi Sahi

Sar-e-Tour Ho, Sar-e-Hashhar Ho,

Humain Intazaar Qubool Hai!

Wo Kabhi Milain Wo Kahin Milain

Wo Kabhi Sahi, Wo Kahin Sahi

Na Ho Un Pr Jo Mera Bas, To Na Sahi,

Ke Yeh Aashiqi Hai Hawas Nahin!

Main Unhi Ka Thaa, Main Unhi Ka Hoon,

Vo Mere Nahin Tou Nahin Sahi!

Jo Ho Faisla Wo Sunaye, Usey Hashr Pe Na Uthaye

Jo Karen Ge Aap Sitam Wahan, Wo Abhi Sahi Woh Yahin Sahi

Ussy Dekhne Ki Jo Lau Lagi,

Tou ‘Naseer’ Dekh Hi Lenge Hum

Wo Hazaar Aankh Se Door Ho,

Wo Hazaar Parda Nasheen Sahi!

in dino, zindagi thori

ruk si gayi hai,

nahi pata kab chalna

hai aur kab bhagna hai,

shayad issi ko zindagi

kehte hai,

magar kya phir woh ek

khwaab tha jo mere

bachpan ke kirdaar ne

dekha tha?

zamana badal jata hai,

toh iska matlab hume bhi

waqt ke sath badalna ho

yeh baat kahi toh kahi kisne?

har baari umeed haar kar nayi

cheezo se umeede kyu laga

baithte hai hum?

ruki hui zindagi me bhi khud

ke liye do pal nikalne ki fursat

kyu nahi milti hai hume?

khud se khud ke liye jeena

kyu nahi sikhaya kabhi kisine?

khud se hi mooh mod lene

me hume kis baat ki khushi

milti hai?

kabhi is samay ke sath bhagna

na sahi chalna toh seekh hi jaayege na?

nahi pata kal me kya likha hai,

aaj ke aaj me do pal ka jeena

toh seekh jaayege na?

kya pata kabhi zindagi se dosti

hojaye toh shayad in sab sawalo

ke jawab mil jaye, aur nahi bhi

mile toh dheemi raftaar ke iska sath

chalna toh seekh hi jaayege.

[scribblesbyavi]

main ek bikhra hua insaan

tum ek nayaab sapna

main kuch giney chuney shabd

tum puri ki puri kabita

najane kaise hui yeh ek hadsa

tumse main aa mila

par zindagi hai hi ajeeb

jo do log milkar vi na mila

ab main aur mera toota dil

tum ek khwab,

mere muskurane ki bajeh

aur ek nayaab sapna.

kabhi kabhi mere dil main khayal ata hai

kabhi kabhi mere dil main khayal ata hai

zindagi teri zulfon ki naram chahon main guzarne ko ati

tou shadaab ho bhi skti thi

yeh ranj-o-gham ki siyahi jo dil pe chaai hai

teri nazar ki shuwa’on main kho bhi skti thi

magr yeh ho na saka

aur abh yeh alam hai kay

tu nahi, tera gham, teri justuju bhi nahi

guzar rahi hai zindagi kuch istrah kay jaise

issey kisi kay saharay ki arazoo nae

na koi rah, na manzil, na roshani ka suragh

batakh rahi hai andheron main zindagi meri

inhi andheron main hi main reh jauga kahin kho kr

main jaanta hu mere hum nafaz, magr yunhi

kabhi kabhi mere dil main khayaal ata hai
