I & Me

I feel like a guest, on my Own Blog!. It has been nearly four years that I created a post here. Not that, I didn't want to write, nor that I didn't have the time. Then what happened? I believe, 'I' happened:).
Who, I..what & why?
Introducing the ' I' :
I, me, myself..& all that:)  soo much happened, is happening. And, while it is & was happening..the 'I' got soo absorbed in the happening, that it forgot a world of emotions other than my Own, does Exist. Then, I looked beyond the "I"..
Yes, I Took my Blog for granted. Just like I sometimes(yaa, ok at more times:p) do take my closest ones for granted. Don't we do that? I do it..
I sleep thinking that I would wake up, that I will get a good morning hug from my kids, that my rose in my garden will bloom, that mom will call in the morning, that I will hear the "love you". That I will get a "good morning" text from my best friend.
Hmm..that I will keep breathing tomorrow! And then, I wake up...thinking that I will call that friend that I haven't for a while, that I Will return the mail, etc etc..
If I don't take tomorrow for granted, would I have waited to write on my blog for four years? Would I be a miser while showering those kisses to kids? Or would I choke them with oodles of more? And, all THOSE who exist in MY "WILL"? Would I not tell them "All" that I loved them to bits? (Including me) I would. I Am - NOW. Trust me, I wasn't procrastinating. "I" was only taking Life for granted..
I hear "ME" and, you??

Status Quo!...



Can I stay HERE?. Or move on?....
Should we, or not...?
What Was, That IS...will it be ?....
Let Me be, Let US be...
In the NOW, Future is but a mystery!
I am, yes - Content...
why fret, then for what will be?
'Status Quo' is good enough....
what will be, will be.....!

ExPeCtAtIonS & MoRe....


All seemed fine and there’s a broad smile on my face. Suddenly, something inside bothering, and why would it?? Why should it?? Trying to decipher... I let it, thought it would subside. I knew I was happy, I knew I had done it....OOuch again! but yet...it nudged me, bugged me, din leave me.

It was my day, a special day...I had worked hard for it...And they knew it, they know me. Just one sms or one call would make it so much more meaningful. I waited, it did not come. I said,“nevermind, maybe it’s not important enough for them, doesn’t mean, anything”.But, then why did it not leave me? Why should I care? God, it still is bothering!! And that is why this post!

Expectations and More....

A simple ‘hi’ when u see me around

If words are too much, a Smile would do...

When, I m lost....ask me why

Don look at ur diary, before we have to meet

Or forget to call, when I want you to wish me luck!

Small gestures, have large meanings...

Am I expecting too much, if I only expect you to read??

'FrIeNdShIp' - Khalil Gibran


" ReFleCtIoNs!":



And a youth said,
- Speak to us of Friendship!
And he answered, saying:
Your friend is your needs answered.
He is your field which you sow with love
and reap with thanksgiving.

And he is your board and your fireside.
For you come to him with your hunger,
and you seek him for peace.

When your friend speaks his mind you fear
not the "nay" in your own mind,
nor do you withhold the "ay".
And when he is silent your heart ceases
not to listen to his heart;
For without words, in friendship, all thoughts,
all desires, all expectations are born and shared,
with joy that is unacclaimed.
When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most
in him may be clearer in his absence,
as the mountain to the climber
is clearer from the plain.

And let there be no purpose in friendship
save the deepening of the spirit.
For love that seeks aught but the disclosure
of its own mystery is not love but a net cast forth:
and only the unprofitable is caught.

And let your best be for your friend
that you should seek him with hours to kill?
Seek him always with hours to live.
For it is his to fill your need,
but not your emptiness.
And in the sweetness of friendship
let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.
For in the dew of little things
the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

-Khalil Gibran.

"AaJ JaAne Ki Zid Na KaRO "- Guitar version

Sunday usually is a soulful day, where MOMENTS (hmmm.. I decide NOT to dramatise them ) touch me in the form of music and songs. And there I was .... I found myself browsing through the lyrics and U tube of the song 'Aaj Jaane Ki Zid Na Karo ' a song sung by Pakistani singer ' Farida Khanum.
I came across an interesting u tube, where a girl tries her hands with this song on a guitar, Pls pardon her sense of the singer as she passes it off to Begum Akhtar :P.
I m also adding the original version here, as it is where MY HEART trully lies :)....Also, an English Lyric translation for my 'Angrez' Cousins and Friends, help them feel the depth of the song!( Pls retain some patience as the video downloads)
Enjoy!!!...

"Aaj jaane ki zid na karo!"

The ORIGINAL version :

Lyrcis : Source http://oldpoetry.com/opoem/63904-Fayyaz-Hashmi-Aaj-Jaane-Ki-Zid-Na-Karo

Aaj jaane ki zid na karo
Yunhi pehloo mein baithe raho
Aaj jaane ki zid na karo
Hai mar jaayenge, hum to lut jaayenge
Aisi baatein kiya na karo
Aaj jaane ki zid na karo

Tum hi socho zara, kyun na roke tumhe
Jaan jaati hai jab uth ke jaate ho tum
Tumko apni qasam jaan-e-jaan
Baat itni meri maan lo
Aaj jaane ki zid na karo
Yunhi pehloo mein baithe raho
Aaj jaane ki zid na karo

Waqt ki qaid mein zindagi hai magar
Chand ghadiyan yehi hain jo aazad hain
Inko khokar mere jaan-e-jaan
Umr bhar na taraste raho
Aaj jaane ki zid na karo

Kitna maasoom rangeen hai yeh sama
Husn aur ishq ki aaj mein raaj hai
Kal ki kisko khabar jaan-e-jaan
Rok lo aaj ki raat ko
Aaj jaane ki zid na karo
Yunhi pehloo mein baithe raho
Aaj jaane ki zid na karo


Translation-

Don't insist on leaving today
Keep sitting beside me.
Don't insist on leaving today
else I shall die, I shall be looted.
Please don't talk like this.
Don't insist on leaving today.

Give it a thought,
why shouldn't stop you?
When you leave,
life goes out of me.
For your own sake, beloved
Just listen to this one plea,
don't insist on leaving today,
keep sitting beside me.
Don't insist on leaving today.

My life is trapped in time's bars,
just a few solitary moments are free.
And if you lose them too, my beloved,
you shall keep craving forever.
Don't insist on leaving today,
keep sitting beside me.
Don't insist on leaving today.

What an innocent hueful meeting this is
of beauty and love, they rule today.
Who knows what lies in tomorrow,
Let's make this night stand still.
Don't insist on leaving today,
keep sitting beside me.
Don't insist on leaving today.
