Tonight is the night of shayeri...deep, somber and melancholy. It is one of those nights of the year when the wind is chilling, and the smell is right. With a mist of flattering words hanging around me , I can hardly be blamed for sharing my feeble attempt at shayeri. This night words transform into magical tools of imagination, making it easier to express heart's desires. This night the smoky remains of the past days envelop all around me, making me smile and weep at the same time. This night Love meets Pain and Joy meets Sorrow. This night is a Shayer's dream; an artist's enigma and a writer's challenge.
The shayeri is old; but the feelings are just as new. The pain is real and the sorrow is lingering.
These words of the shayeri expresses happiness and sadness at the same time: the joy of having let go and the pride of inner strangth that allowed one to let go, and the suffering of loneliness.

Tum chaley gaye phirbhi yaad aaogey
Tumne dard de gaye phirbhi yaad aaogey.
Tum jitne duur bhi jaougey yaad rahogey
Tum hum e bhul bhi to bhi yaad rahogey.

Tumhe jo jana hi tha mujhe chchorke
Phir dil ke kareeb hi kyu aaye?
Dil ke kareeb jab aahhi gaye
Phir dil kyu dukhaye?
Tumhe jo jana hi tha mujhe chhorke
Jao...meri har khushi aapne saathe le jao
Lekin yaadein meri rahe jayegi.

Hello, THanks for visiting my blog. You asked about the Amazon list on my site. I think this is a part of Typepad. It is a part of my service. I don't know how I do it as I only type the ISBN into a link and it does the book for me. Sorry to not be of more help. COme back and visit again, I like your blog.
Peace.
