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

Whenever you are with me... by Arabian Oud {R}

Whenever you are with me, No matter how hard life gets, I always have you to make me feel loved, You whisper in my ears, Words of encouragement, Everytime I fall, Your love holds me back, Look at this home, We built with so much love and hard work, Where did you disappear one day? And leave me all alone in a place we called 'home' You left me in an endless darkness, With no hope, with tears, with regrets, Was our love so weak? That it couldn't stand the storm? That it couldn't stand these hard tests? Was our love so fake? That instead of holding each other, We run away from each other, And act as if we no longer care, And act as if we are deaf to each other's voice, Act as if we can live without each other, Whenever you are with me, In my thoughts, my loneliness disappears, You are my other half, that completes me, Come back and complete our story, Make this house a home again, Fill it with life and happiness, The love our souls dream for, The love we prayed for..

Unbeliever in love - June 2006 poem

I was once a believer in love, but now I am an unbeliever in love, I was so deeply smitten by his smile, but now I wonder what drove me to him? I thought love meant eternal BLISS, but then I realised it was plain HELL, Prancing around the trees like a child, I seemed to lose my innocence in love, Love, you followed my shadow everywhere, And then you entered my blood and then my soul, You crept into my alley in the dark night, Then stole my sleep and hypnotised me, I thought it was so special, 'true love' But it was nothing but a gud 'Time pass' for you, Driving me to insanity and sleepless nights, Then stealing away my dreams and peace, You vanish in the midst of the night, I thought you understood me, you was special, But it was all a charade you put up, You behave all sweet and innocent infront of me, But inside thee are full of betrayal and evil, Now I am an unbeliever in love, Thankyou for waking me up, Coz I can see I was lucky to walk away lonely, I am deaf to the...
