प्रेम तुझं माझं..


प्रेम तुझं माझं

मनाचं गुपित एक लहानसं, स्वतःपासूनच लपवलेलं

थोड व्यक्त केलेलं, बरचसं नजरेनेच दटवलेलं


प्रेम तुझं माझं..

गुलाबाचं फुलं ए ,वहीसकट जपलेलं

चॉकलेटच्या चांदीसारखं, संपल्यावरही न फेकलेलं


प्रेम तुझं माझं..

गणिताच्या उत्तरासारखं, एका पायरीत कधीच न सुट्लेलं

जे काही सुचलं ते पान फाटेस्तोवर खरडलेलं


प्रेम तुझं माझं..

शब्दांसंगे नाचलेलं, कधी उगाच ट ला ट लावुन जुळवलेलं

कवितेला स्फुरलेलं, आता कवितेपुरतंच उरलेलं


प्रेम तुझं माझं..

पहाटेच दव जणू पानांवर मोती होऊन पडलेलं

हाती धरु जाता चिमूटभर पाणी झालेलं


प्रेम तुझं माझं..

नातं जन्मांतरीचं गुंफलेलं

नियतीलाही तोडता येईना इतकं अवघड गुरफटलेलं





Affirmation

I was no schemer
Never listened to any melodies of hearts
Rhymes and rhythms, scents and colours 
Wondered what made' em different from numbers


But then you smiled and

The wind caressed your hair
In your eyes I felt blue moon rise
And stars shimmered with flair

I was no dreamer
Never cared what those images meant
Nights were all the same
And days just had different names


But then you stepped in
Took my hand and took me away
My heart swayed like never before 

And your love did the rest

I was no loner
Still preferred to walk my separate ways
Life then was like a long cold night
Home was just a place to stay


And then you came with angel's wings
With flowers, candles and frames
You built our little world there
Without using wands and spells

Now you’re away and I've found
You were the one...and the all I had
Know it's too late for me to confess
That I'm a lover, your lover if I may…
