Black


A wonderfully made, sensible movie that depicts the harsh realities of life, shows us a facet of life...unheard,unseen,unspoken of....and yet, it is full of hope !
Its no big deal to see,
Only illuminance makes it possible
Futile eyes, if one cant see where light doesnt reach.

Its no big deal to hear,
Too much of deafening noise all around
Futile ears, if one cant hear silence of the soul.

Its no big deal to talk,
Careless words hurt like daggers
Futile voice, if one cant sing a soothing song.

Its no big deal to breathe,
and fool ourselves that we are alive
Futile life, if one cant live it for others...

Thank God for the way He has made you... for what He has given you...

JEENE KA ANDAAZ.. WOHI HAI PURANA
JEENE KA ANDAAZ.. WOHI HAI PURANA
(The Ordinary life among Extra-Ordinary circumstances)


Jeene Ka Andaz.., wohi hai purana..,
bheerh bhari duniya mein.. khushion ko dhond lana.,

Kabhi Bus ki khirki se ..,
dobte huye suraj ka nazrana..,
toh kabhi ek bhuzurg ko seat de kar..,
khushiyon ko pana.

Kabhi chalte-chalte raah par..,
kisi purane dost se takrana..,
phir purani batoon ko yaad kar ke.,
dheere se sharmana.,

Internet ka kamal dekho..,
kar di duniya itni choti..,
un bhikre samundar par doston
ki aas poori..,
dekh dost ko online..,
ab khushi nahi adhuri.

Kya kahen soochte the.,
kitne mashroof hai hum..,
es duniya.., es jasbaat se..,
kitne door hai hum.
par dekha toh yakeen aaya..,
na yeh duniya door.., na HUM..,
yeh SAFAR bhi HUM..
aur .. HUMSAFAR..bhi HUM.

Enrique Iglesias
Would you dance
if I asked you to dance?
Would you run
and never look back?
Would you cry
if you saw me cry?
And would you save my soul, tonight?

I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.

So, if you go
You should know
It's hard to just forget the past, so fast
It was good, it was bad but it was real
And that's, all you have, in the end, our love matters

If you feel like leaving
Well I'm not gonna beg you to stay
But soon you'll be finding
You can run, you can hide
But you can't escape my love
You can run, you can hide
But you can't escape my love

I'm waisted away
I made a million mistakes am I to late
Theres a storm in my head,
and a race on my bed when you not near.
Im not afraid of dieing, but im afraid of losing you.

Baby im addicted im out of control,
your the drug that keeps me from dieing
Baby I'm a liar but all I really know,
is that your the only reason I'm trying

I can't sleep and I'm up all night
Through these tears I try to smile
I know the touch of your hand
Can save my life

Don't let me down
Come to me now
I got to be with you some how

And now that you're gone
I just wanna be with you
And I can't go on
I wanna be with you

Crossroads
I am the crossroads,
Don’t know where to go…
Should I carry on..,
Or should I withhold.
The path so vague..,
The journey so dense,
The decision so crucial
That’s making me tense.

One way to glory..,
The other to growth..,
To choose between the two,
Is question unfold.

Time frame from now
Where do I stand
Is the vision that I
..must understand.
The journey just started,
The pastures still new
Later no time for energies
To refresh, or renew.

So, go with the flow
Don’t stop by the rocks..
Ultimately its life & opportunity
That never again knocks.
So check out he time
And go by the tide
Cause crossroads
Will be again…
There, which we will abide.

… choosing crossroads

The terrace
I have never meant
to see this
or the way
it would be

You know
the reason
is you

I know
the reason
is you

But
why won't we
say it

Why don't
we see beyond
what we want
to see

Where are we
going to go
from here
if we don't know
where we are

The great wide open
is waiting
but
we don't think
it is there

Because
we are looking
for it
through
a key hole

And the key
lies in
the truth
that
we shy from

The truth
that is hidden
behind
these words

Where
do we
go
from here

Leave Me Alone....
Leave My Life
Leave Me Alone

U Walked Into My Life
With Unfulfilling Dreams And Hopes
Touched My Heart
And Made Me Yours

There Were Ur Own Reasons
To Leave Me All Alone
Breaking My Heart
And Stealing All The Dreams

I Tried My Best
To Walk Away From U
Im Still Stopping My Heart
Which Beats For U

I Leave All Hopes
And Give Up My Life
You Come Again From Nowhere
And Breath Into Me

I Start Hoping For Best
And Try To Look At U
You Turn Away Ur Eyes
And Say Im Not Yours

U Say U Dont Love Me
And Want To Be Alone
Stop Following Me If Its True
And Let Me Die Alone

Please...Leave My Life
Leave Me Alone

Fun With Maths!!!
Beauty of Maths!

1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111

9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888

Brilliant, isn't it?And finally, take a look at this symmetry:
1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321

Amazing stuff... n coming from a person who used to develop fever before Maths exam in school.....

Kuch to samjho no......
Me lafzon se
kuchh bhi izhaar
nahi karta

iska matlab ye
nahi ki me tujhe
pyar nahi karta

chahta hun me
tujhe aaj bhi par
teri soch me
apna waqt
bekar nahi karta

tamasha na
ban jaye kahi
mohabat meri
isliye apne dardka
aashkar nahi karta

jo kuchh mila he
usi me khush hun me
tere liye khuda se
taqrar nahi karta

par kuchh to bat hai
teri fitrat me zalim
warna tujhe chahne ki khata
baar baar nahin karta..................

What Can I Say About The Supreme


ye aasmaaN, ye zamin, chaaNd aur sooraj
kyaa banaa sakaa hai kabhi koi bhi kudrat
koi to hai jiske aage hai aadmi majboor
koi to hai jiske aage hai aadmi majboor
har taraf, har jagah, har kahin pe hai
haaN.. usi kaa roop

insaan jab koi hai raah se bhaTkaa
isne dikhaa diyaa, usko sahi rastaa
koi to hai jo kartaa hai mushkil hamaari door
koi to hai jo kartaa hai mushkil hamaari door
har taraf, har jagah, har kahin pe hai
haaN.. usi kaa roop
roshni kaa koi dariyaa to haihaaN kahin pe zaroor.

Remember me...........
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you planned:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

Mai Akela Hoon
Zindagi ki khushiyon mein
Jab kabhi dil udas hota hai
Mai akela hoon, is duniya mein
Yeh ehsaas hota hai

Yun toh khushiyan sath raheti hai magar
Mera dard har pal mere paas hota hai
Mai akela hoon, is duniya mein
Yeh ehsaas hota hai

Dhalne lagta haijab din
Sanjh ghir aati hai
Use bhulane ki koshish mein
Dil phir use yaad karta hai
Mai akela hoon, is duniya mein
Yeh ehsaas hota hai

Jab yahi jeena hai to phir Marna kya hai.......Dosto


Shaher ki es daud me daud ke karna kya hai?
Jab yehi jeena hai dosto to phir marna kya hai?
Paheli barish me train late hone ki fikr hai
Bhul gaye bhigte hue tahelna kya hai?
Serials ke kirdaaro ka saara haal hai malum
par maa ka haal puchhne ki fursat kise hai?
Ab ret pe nage pao tahelte kyu nahi?
108 hai chanel phir dil bahelte kyu nahi?
Internet ki duniya ke to touch me hai,
lekin pados me kon raheta hai jaante tak nahi.
Mobile, Landline sab ki bharmaar hai,
Lekin jigri dost tak pahuche aise taar kaha hai?
Kab dubte hue suraj ko dekha tha yaad hai?
Kab jaana tha shaam ka woh banana kya hai?
To Dosto Shaher ki es daud me daud ke karna kya hai
Jab yahi jeena hai to phir Marna kya hai?

What woman want!!!
Some of you might infer my age to be in the late forties, while same might blame it on my blissful ignorance, but fact remains that only recently was I introduced to this thingie called orkut. And Boy! its a bizare world out there. Post a smart pic (need not necessarily be you), put some witty remarks, browse through to a cute gal's page, write a "scrap" and bingo you get to have coffee with her. Ya right! you might think! Was amazing to read some of the "pick-up" lines used by guys.

The fairly naive ones have the standard "Hi, would like to be your friend, I love making friends". I am sure the success rate on this one would be as good as allowing a chimp to randomly punch keys on a key board and expect a line out of Shakespeare’s.

The smarter ones (at least they believe so) graduate to the next level. A friend of mine received this one from a budding Wordsworth who tried his luck with some poetry. How about this for a pick up line:

I wouldn't know you on the street,
and doesn't that seem strange?
You hold a place within my life, unusual and unique;
We share ideals and special dreams,
and still, we do not speak.
I picture what I think you are,
perhaps you picture me.
An intriguing game for both of us
for someone we can't see.
So for this friendship we possess,
we owe this mail a debt,
Perhaps the charm lies in the fact
that we have never met.
wats happenin buddy..............juz happened to see ur profile andthought we wud make gud pals.am navin here from the north and love
making
frnds,music,dance,travel and meet frnds,beaches long drives are a few
hobbies and a part time dj too.
plz feel free to visit my profile and u feel am worth makin frnds do
mail
me at
xxxxxx@yahoo.com or at 0987654321

I am sure gals that read these wonder if these guys are plain stupid or just suffer from an over dose of testosterone. Whatever it is..fact remains that "we" have been trying for ages to get the gal's attention and been failing miserably. We have tried it all...the traditional whistle, a sine wave whistle with a high note and a low note, the innocent smirk, honking when behind the wheels, circles with a cigarette smoke and quite recently graduated to a fancy sky-writer. Nothing has worked! Is there any thing left untested yet effective? I tell you..we have run out of ideas!!!

Man karta hai.............
Deti hein dastak yaaden dil pe
mujhey wapas wahi le jati hein
jahan se shuru hui yeh dastan
yadein safar ki....ek aur safar pe le jati hun

Dekhta hun hansi labon pe
toh chura kar rakhne ka man karta hai
aansuon ka karwan aagae hai...
khud ko sabak dene ko man karta hai

Manzil samjhta tha jisko
samajh ko samjhane ka man karta hai
mil ka pathar bhi nahi nikla
ab samajh ke bhul jane ko man karta hai

Khush tha jis pal mein...
saans rok hansi sunne ko man karta hai
bas pal bhar hi ka woh pal tha
pal do pal aur hansne ko man karta hai

Nikla tha dhundne khud ko ghar se
khud ko pane ka man karta hai
ruk gaya soch kar mujhse behtar humsafar mil gaya
tanha safar aur bhi hai …yaad dilane ko man karta hai.............

Deep in the woods....
hum rahe ya na rahe kal...
listening to this
beautiful number by KK. Its amazing how this song can take you to this picturesque setting. I see myself in deep woods...its dark out here except for this thin streak of light jus managing to pierce through some stubborn greenery, a rivulet dancing to the tunes of this song and some birds chirping in appreciation. With this screen saver in the back ground, here I am feeling all at ease on this couch like rock laid out especially for me; a guitar adding to my otherwise sober attire....Its soothing, its refreshing and its tranquilizing.
Pity! how this setting would transform into rush hour hustle bustle when I have to wade through Pune traffic tomorrow morning. Until then...
Hum rahen ya na rahen yaad aayenge ye pal....
