क्या आप मेरे साथ हैं???
From 1947 till 2008 and god knows till when... its even difficult to put down all the dates...Mumbai blasts...Kashmiri pundits massacare...Godhra...yet another attack on Mumbai...and even as I write, some terrorist plot is being executed with perfection and ease. From the time I have taken interest in politics, in news, in current happenings...all I have seen is blame games. Shame on us that these cowardly terrorists are "brave" enough to take up the responsibility of an attack...whereas we are so used to leading a "tension free life" that we keep on shifting the load onto someone else's shoulders everytime something goes wrong. As we drop that choclate wrapper or waste piece of paper on a clean road, we never realize that it is the same "I" who doesnt hesitate to blame the government for not maintaining the road or the hoi polloi for not understanding the meaning of cleanliness. sadly enough, we still havent learnt to point that finger at ourselves....we give bribes to get our work done, but we point our fingers at the person taking bribe....we drive on the wrong lane...but point fingers at someone else driving in the wrong lane. The same ol dialogue,"yahaan ka system...hi hai kharaaab"...कौन है यार ये system?? और कितनों पर ऊँगली उठाएँगे?? कब यह मानेंगे के गलती हमारी है...उनकी नहीं...कब ये कहेंगे के ये देश हमसे है...और हमारा हर एक कदम इस देश को निखार सकता है या इसकी सुन्दरता को बिगाड़ सकता है!!! हाँ मैंने गलती की है....कभी जान बूझ कर, कभी अनजाने में....पर और नही...अब वक्त है उन गलतियों को सुधारने का...क्या आप मेरे साथ हैं,क्या आप देश के साथ हैं??? लिखने को तौ बहुत है, पर आज बस एक ही पंक्ति याद आती है...." कन्धों से मिलते हैं कंधे क़दमों से कदम मिलते हैं, हम चलते है जब ऐसे तौ दिल दुश्मन के हिलते हैं...."
जय हिंद

A few lines to share....
तौ दस जनम भी कुर्बान...
चाँद लव्ज़ इस रिश्ते के नाम....
SUCH A SWEET RELATIONSHIP WE SHARE.
FILLED WITH LOVE,
NURTURED WITH CARE;
TWO LIVES ENTWINED TOGETHER,
TWO HEARTS THAT BEAT FOR EACH OTHER;

TWO SOULS SO CLOSE,
BOUND WITH A BOND AS FRAGRANT AS A ROSE;
BLESSED BY THE GODS
AND BY THOSE WHO CARE,
SUCH A SWEET RELATIONSHIP WE SHARE.
WE HAVE SHARED OUR HAPPINESS,
HAVE SHED TEARS TOGETHER;
WE HAVE MISSED EACH OTHER IS LONELINESS,
HAVE FACED LIFE TOGETHER;
TOGETHER WE HAVE SHARED MOMENTS SO RARE,
SUCH A SWEET RELATIONSHIP WE SHARE.
DESPITE OUR DIFFRENCES,
WE ARE THE BEST OF FRIENDS;
IN FRONT OF OUR LOVE,
EVERY RULE BENDS.
FRIENDSHIP AT ITS BEST AND A LOVE SO RARE,
SUCH A SWEET RELATIONSHIP WE SHARE…

Thts lyfe...
Its not in tranquility that I write these words,
Nor is it the humming bees or d singing birds.
With moist eyes n silent lips, trembling hands and a broken heart,
I am wit my friends, my loved ones from whom I shall soon part.
Like strangers we met, in this journey called life
But now these thoughts Oh! It cuts like a knife.
Through ups and downs with friends n foes
I prayed this road should never end
Some walked away, some swore to b there
Side by side n hand in hand
And walk with me as far as the road goes.
Some smiled and forgot, some forgot to smile
And some a helping hand did lend.
Years back when this journey dawned
Little did I know little did I guess
That through sleepy classes n shady lawns
Through last night studies n partying in the mess
In the end I shall stand where it had all started
And soon it shall be time to look beyond.
I feel so lost, lost in this lonely crowd of men,
I know not why, but time seems to stop
Or did it not and was just another wish again?
Oh why isn’t there a grain to stop
To stop the sand in the hourglass?
And why does no one try to stop
To stop the wheel of time Alas!
I hurt myself again and again
Though I knew the truth so plain so bare
As if I enjoyed this sweet pain
This enmity and hatred, this love and care.
I tried in vain to hold back time
Oh but its like a slippery fish
And that the effort is not worth a dime
I sigh to myself,” It’s just another wish…Its just, another wish…”.
