Ye Raat...

Ye raat, abhi bahut kuch kehti hai,
main samajh nahi paa raha bas, yehi adchan hai...
Iski kuch paheliya suljhane mein mast hokar
Maine dekha, isme khudko, ye darpan hai

Aur kya dekha maine, ye mann bhi
mera, in taaron ki tarah, timtimata hai...
Na jaane ye kitni door hai, phir bhi
kitni roshni hai, kya muskurata hai...

Faila aasman mein kaala andhera. Par fir bhi
Ujala hai, ik chaand se, aadha hi sahi
Ye iccha hai, drid nischay hai, aur maine bhi
Pehchaana khoob ise, mann ke andhero mein kahi

Woh door kahi ek lakeer se kheecha hai,
Upar waale ne, waha se din nikalta hai
Ab hoga woh din ka ujala, bas kuch pal aur
Mujhe haske ye raat bhi bitani hai...

A Good Night Lullaby...

May the sweetest dreams come on your way,
May you have a great tomorrow, like you did today..
May you sleep fitfully,happy,with a smile,
And let your mind and body rest,tonight, awhile...

For tomorrow, is another day, hours to go
Who knows about tomorrow, what is there to know?
For today, we did good, we did God proud,
For today, we were happy, I say this out loud

For happiness, is nothing but your dreams coming true,
For joy is being happy, doing what you do,
So dream, my dear, dream, in vivid colors bright,
And sleep, my dear, sleep, as I wish you a good night...
