No chains, no cage, can hold us back,There’s no stopping us, once we get on the track,Move out of the way, all you old and raddled,It’s time to go vroom, enough have you paddled,We allowed you to keep this world…
Juvenile Rape
A poem written in the aftermath of Delhi rape case where the juvenile offender escaped gallows on basis of his age. Raped, tormented, she left our world,We burnt candles, prayed for her,The system promised, justice in speed,Our hearts angered, and…
जागो भारत जागो
उठो रे बंधू, आँखें खोलो, ये इतवार नहीं है,उठो रे बहना, निद्रा तोड़ो, ये त्यौहार नहीं है,जागो, बाहर निकलो, पूरी कर लो ज़िम्मेदारी,एक बटन में छुपी हुई है, किस्मत तेरी सारी,जाओ जाके बटन दबाओं, कस के चोट करो,देखभाल के, ठोक…
जग गए है दाग देंगे गोलियां सवाल से! (A nation awakens)
हां पड़े थे सो रहे, न जाने कितने साल से,सिल रहे थे तुम गलीचे, हाँ हमारी खाल से,थे डरे शिथिल शिथिल, ज़िन्दगी को धो रहे,जग गए है दाग देंगे गोलिया सवाल से! बाढ़ हो, अकाल हो, लू चले या हिम…

Why do you worry? Why do you cry?Life is still funny, and smiles never die,Dreams may be watered, wet by the tears,But will be warm again, when the sun will rise,You don’t need to be a king or a queen,You…
A candle is all we light
The candles that were burning, have melted into dust,Who was meant to be protected, stays exposed to rust,She crumbles in a corner, helpless and crying,The hand that rocks the cradle, in misery she is lying.In misery it is dying. She…
The chirping sycophants
So you jump in to defend,So you shout out to support,Lowering yourself to lows,That even you didn’t knew before,And yet you don’t realize,As you murder the shame within,Chest beating, Desperation leaking,You lay the arguments paper thin.You lick the boots of…
This world needs a doctor
Look around, this world is an ailing place,Pathogens of hatred in every space,No smile is permanent, no happiness is pure,Progressing to the chronic stage, this world needs a cure,This world needs a doctor-4 Everyone is a patient in hospital,What’s the…
You complete me
Do you know what you mean to me?You are my life, my destiny,Without you I am just wandering,Like a spaceman longing gravity,Like Beethoven without symphony,Like a speaker needing addressee,Like a poet wanting a paper blank,Like newton minus apple tree. Yes!…
