Bandeya

Dedicated to- PatelImtiyaz

Situation - When Shravan comes to Tiwari Killa to give her mother's jewellery back to her,

■■■■■■■■

"Oye chaman meri gaadi mili tujhe marne ko?" Suman screamed as the car came to a screeching halt and she looked out of the window to see who this idiot is but she sealed her lips when she saw his face.

He gave her the jewellery when she stood in front of him a minute later and like always they taunted each other. When she bickered, how he just say that he is going back to London but then doesn't go, he showed her his flight ticket.

"Yeh dekho ab khush?"

"Haan"

"Mai ja raha hoon." Placing his phone back in his jeans pocket, he took few steps but turned to look at her when he heard her voice.

"Tumhara yaha se chale jana hi hum dono ke liye better hai." She said looking straight in his eyes.

He surely is hurt  by her words but masked it. Giving her one last glance he went away.

At night he was taking a walk in his lawn and as he pondered over her words, he felt that what she said is not wrong.

chal, chal ve tu bandeya us galiye
jahaan koi kisi ko na jaane
kya rehna wahaan par sun bandeya
jahaan apne hi na pehchaanein...

(come to that street, O man,
where no one knows anyone.
because what's the point of living in a place where your own people don't recognize you.)

Maybe what she said is absolutely right. I shouldn't stay where the person i used to call mine wants me no more. I should go where no  one knows me, where no one will hurt me, where no one will judge me, where i will live without boundations, where i won't avoid roads which leads me to her.

reh gaye hain jo tujh mein
mere lamhe lauTa de
meri aankhon mein aake
mujhe thoRa rula de...

(return me the moments
which have remained in you.
come to my eyes
and make me cry a little.)

Give  me back all my fondest memories i shared with you. Give me back the moments of solitude i spent with you, Give me back my happy days where i was not just showing off being happy. Give me back the sleepless nights i spend doing your homework. And let me cry for a while placing my head in your lap.

chal, chal ve tu bandeya us galiye
jahaan koi kisi ko na jaane...

(come to that street, O man,
where no one knows anyone.)

Maybe she is right. I should go where no one is bothered about me being around. Thank you for teaching me that love is forever not the one who loves. Now i will try to rebuild myself where no one questions what i am trying to do.

khwaab jo huey hain khanDahar
khwaab hi nahi thhe
ik neend thi neem si...
kho diya hai tune jisko
tera hi nahi tha
ik haar thi jeet si...

(the dreams which have become ruins,
were never dreams.
it was a half-sleep...
the one you have lost
was never yours.
it was just a loss, that felt like a victory.)

All my dreams and fantasies are shattered now and i  got to know what i lost was never mine otherwise i wouldn't have lost it at the first place. The happiness that stayed for few years makes me realise that i have left behind so many tears amidst that laughter and a bit of myself too.

kitna rulayega ye to bataa
rabba ve tujhe hai tere rab da waasta

(how much would you make me cry, tell me,
For god's sake, O my God.)

This pain, i can't take it anymore. Tell me how much will i have to bear more because i am about to succumb.

chal, chal ve tu bandeya us galiye
jahaan koi kisi ko na jaane
kya rehna wahaan par sun bandeya
jahaan apne hi na pehchaane

(come to that street, O man,
where no one knows anyone.
because what's the point of living in a place where your own people don't recognize you.)

Its totally my fault when i thought that you once considered me as a friend and you put your heart in front of me. Winning me from those  late night studies, bicycle racing, teasing and what not. But i was wrong. I was wrong because you never considered me  as a friend. At least i deserved to be somewhere be it at the bottom of your priority list but you never even placed me in the list.

And thats why it's better to be with the people who doesn't know me because then there will be no expectations.

While floating over the conflicts he saw her coming toward him and it is like his restlessness found solace again.
