तेरे खुशबू मैं बसे ख़त..

 तेरे खुशबू में बसे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

प्यार में डूबे हुए ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

तेरे हाथों के लिखे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

जिनको दुनिया की निगाहों से छुपाये रक्खा..

जिनको एक उम्र कलेजे से लगाए रक्खा..

दीं जिनको जिन्हें ईमान बनाए रक्खा..

तेरे खुशबू मैं बसे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

जिनका हर लफ्ज़ मुझे याद पानी की तरह..

याद थे मुझको जो पैगाम-ए-जुबानी की तरह..

मुझको प्यारे थे जो अनमोल निशानी की तरह..

तेरे खुशबू मैं बसे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

दूर दुनिया की निगाहों से जो बचाकर लिक्खे..

साल हां साल मेरे नाम बराबर लिक्खे..

कभी दिन मैं कभी रात मैं उठ कर लिक्खे..

तेरे खुशबू मैं बसे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

तेरे खुशबू से भरे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

प्यार में डूबे हुए ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

तेरे हाथों के लिखे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे..

तेरे ख़त आज मैं गंगा में बहा आया हूँ..

तेरे ख़त आज मैं गंगा में बहा आया हूँ..

आग बहते हुए पानी में लगा आया हूँ..

Nostalgia..

Ahh what days those were!! Trip to buy a pair of earrings for each of us(junk jwellery :P), evening snack at Juice Junction which was primarily a hot grilled Brown Bread Sandwich followed by a 1/2 juice at times..or mouth watering Paani Poori(this mention is especially for one of my dudette friends Preeti, am sure you are getting tempted even at the mention of this Preeti ;) also the brown bread mention was a tribute to our evening time together :) )..or a cup of hot chai and steaming plain dosa at Krishna Udupi..Lunch at Graamin..or Dessert at Corner House(This one's for Priya, one of my very sweet friends :D, yeah Priya I know you feel like a Death By Chocolate now :D)or Window shopping at Forum & to have something at Transit, look at the Soch sari outlet(remember Sanghamitra? :) ) Am musing if I have forgotten something..Oh yes...and the chat trips to Anand Sweets :P Amazing days!! Just so incredible that I won't ever forget them..And how did I not mention the post lunch chai sessions :D the post lunch walks..

I mean what more do you need to enjoy life..A good group of friends..who have common interests( Junk Jwellery and Gossip for us.. :D hee hee & oh oh I forgot!! commenting on ridiculous dressing sense of others, now don't mind this since it was for pure fun :D)

Feel so fortunate to have had such a good time with people I enjoy being so much with..Sanghamitra with her one liners :D Priya almost always busy in her work (But not these days ;) ) and Preeti always ready with tips on trendy dressing and health food :D Sigh! I miss you guys so much..so much that I had to write this post today..Just today I realised how much these little joyful moments meant to me..Those days will never come back again..but memories do remain..I hope you remember me too..maybe by looking at the junk jwellery I got for each one of you...or the capsicum curry that I prepared(the besan one yes :) ) or for the food court instance, when me and Sanghamitra ended up having bhel poori after a bland plate of Salad(which we started eating very enthusiastically but ended up making faces :D) or for the chikki Priya?? :)

I can't even express in words..how much I have begun to feel that no one can fill the places that each one of you held in my life and still hold..No matter what gals..I will always cherish your friendship..All of you rock!!! This post is especially for the three of you..my buddies..Preeti, Priya and Sanghamitra....Huggs
