Faithless by Arabian Oud {R}









It took me a long while before I resumed to normality, coming out of that blurry world, surrounding me with my desires, ever wanting wishes. A world, which could only exist in the Here after, as I looked forward to my death, nothing more pleased me then the reunion with my beloved.. the Supreme being.. this world soon became a prison and my body a cage... for everytime I have been so sincere, I have been hurt so immensely, for every time I tried to be a hard crusted arrogant individual, I found myself very alienated..


There were times when the pen would stop favouring me and all those words remained in my mind... deep thinking.. then finding faults in myself.. then those moments of shedding tears, then wiping away those tears and replacing by that innocent smile... behaving like a child, escaping the clutches of adulthood and finding more solace in the purity and honesty of childhood..


Trust is something so pivotal to every relationship, building up trust takes forever but it simply takes a second to crush it into pieces and then fade away into insecurity.....


Suddenly, everything around me seems like a lie, the dream is over and I am back to reality, it hurts, for I can not handle it, I am trying, my eyes are searching for that one face that could help me but where is this one face?


Dayarr-e-ghair main tujhey saadaa bhee deyein to kahan, tu mill bhee jata to tujh sey kya kehtey,


Translating


Where should I search for thee in this unknown land, where should I call out your name, when your whereabouts are vague, even if I were to find out, what would I possibly say? Would you understand my pain.. and comfort me by giving your shoulder?


My condition resembles the Sufi, who is so intoxicated in remembering His Lord, nothing around him pleases anymore.. for human relationships have given him nothing but pain and everytime he tried to rise higher he feel deeper..


For not all five fingers are the same, similar is the case with human beings but would anyone even try harder to prove to someone already insecure that they aren't the same...


Faithless is my condition, when the pen is betraying me and misquoting my mind...every inch of my soul is overtaken by a sense of melancholy and all I could wish was peace and true love... no childish games, not playing hard to get, no cheating, no lies, everything pure like that white robe on his body, stainless and his skins glows, I can sense his true love for me.. but as I reach out to touch him, he vanishes away... it's been this story for a few days now.., he makes his presence obvious and then plays hide and seek..where should I search for thee, when you are so alive in my feelings and senses..


Could you erase those nightmares from my mind and make me feel safe, tell me it's all going to be fine and he won't come back again to shatter my dreams...


When in moments of pain, it was your face that comforted me and put a smile back on my face.. thoughts of your kindness melted my heart...hoping it would be sincere and no secrets within..


If thee shall return to where thee belong O' beloved, know that I shall be waiting for you with open arms...but for now I shall remain in my solitude and my world...

حامل الهوى تعب. أبو نواس. ( The One Burdened With Passion Is Weary. Abu Nuwas [d. 814 AD]) on Arabian Oud {R}

حامل الهوى تعب ـــ يستخفه الطرب If he cries, it is right for him [to do so] - what he has is no game. إن بكى يحق له ـــ ليس ما به لعب Whenever one cause [of pain] comes to an end - from you, [another] cause returns to me. كلما انقضى سبب ـــ منك عاد لي سبب You laugh obliviously - as the lover weeps. تضحكين لاهية ـــ والمحب ينتحب You marvel at my sickness - my health is the marvel. تعجبين من سقمي ـــ صحتي هي العجب

MISUNDERSTOOD- by Arabian Oud {R}

MISUND ERSTOOD At first they you pretend you care, But in reality you were ignorant, You offered help by lipservice, Nothing practical at all, Everytime I was depressed, You thought it was plain drama, Kept saying 'grow up girl', Changes were noticed slowly, The one day you went away, Here I was seeking love and support, Even my friends abandoned me, Everytime they met,it was about them, I pondered on what I had achieved, But there was no answer at all, They don't understand my problems, They never asked, expecting my life go-lucky, Here I am, Sitting on the bed, surrounded by dark walls, Tears keep flowing down nonstop, Wished there was someone by my side, Wiping them away, hearing my pain out, They call me names and think I am bad, They simply don't know my story, Love they say, is a medicine, But I seest that not, it only gives pain, They all called me immature and left, My heart was broken, the music stopped playing, Violins of my heart cried out so bad, Wished, the...

The heart an empty vessel by Arabian Oud {R}

The heart an empty vessel The heart is now an empty vessel, A single sound of screech laments, My soul is in an endless sorrow, My inspiration and my glimmer of hope, All washed away by the sea shore, All my hopes dashed into tiny pieces, There is darkness within the heart, Memories reside within of him, He was my inspiration and soul mate, But its always the same story, False promises, abandonment and loneliness, He said 'he was different', I believed him, Less did I know, That my fate was cursed till Doomsday, No mantra can undo my blackened luck, Love, you play games with me, Disguised in different faces, You cheat me, I wound I surrender to my defeat and darkness My heart is an empty vessel, A cursed organ..
