Wo aaye to khwab hi mein magar..
Haqeeqat badal gaye.

Nazar aaye pahle se bahut khoob,
Husn-o-rangat badal gaye!

Mujhe dekh kar, kar gaye nazar-andaaz..
Behad badal gaye.

Duyina-o- dil-e-Vikram ki
Haalat badal gaye.

To help anonymously is good. They think you ain't frustoo and they wonder who you are. Otherwise they think you Are frustoo, and they don't have to wonder about it.

Glad!
Was merely playing with the worlds.. she changes something, something about her gets changed, she herself changes, and things in the writer's life change.. four different scenarios.

I loved this! Totally sums it up and I like the light touch of humour. Er, it IS there, right?

Vik said...

[Drenched]
Yeahhh! That line is my own favorite too!!

Bilkul, bilkul! It IS there!

Just to add another couplet that goes with this .. or well .. don't know .. am new to any kind of poetry!

Badla humein unhone, aur ilzaam diya humein
Ki hum badal gaye

Achchha hai yaar, mast hai!

I love the way a change in mere order of a few words brings a subtle change in meaning in Urdu verses. The day I'd be able to understand it on a totally objective scale, I'd say I am good at poetry. But then the fun of writing it would be dead. So let's keep this "don't-know" alive in us! :)

Thanks! I've started to think there is indeed something good about it, now that You've commented. :)
