Ae khuda, tu hota kaisa hai?

Sochta hu poochunga khuda se
Tu kaun hai, dikhta kaisa hai
Kya tu bhi kuch kuch
Hum insaanon sa hi hota hai

Sochta hu poochunga khuda se
Kya tu bhi kabhi muskurata hai
Khush hota hai jab tu bohot
Kya tu bhi koi geet gungunata hai

Kya tujhe bhi aas hai kisise milne ki
Par tu bhi zamane se darta hai
Kya tu bhi hum insaanon ki tarah
Chup chupkar kisi pe marta hai

Kya tera bhi koi aafsana hai
Koi chehra jiska tu deewana hai
Khoobsurti ka koi aisa manzaar
Jisse yeh insaan abtak anjaana hai

Dil toota hai kya tera bhi kabhi
Kya tu bhi kabhi roya hai
Na soojha jab koi raasta tujhe
Nam si aakhon se kya tu bhi kabhi soya hai

Kya maut ka khauf nahi hai tujhe
Ya tu bhi marne se darta hai
Kya paap aur punya ke motiyon se
Kya tu bhi apni zindagi sanjota hai

Sochta hu poochunga khuda se
Tu aakhir hota kaisa hai
Kya tu bhi kuch kuch
Hum insaanon sa hi hota hai.

Me and my Bike

When I was young I was fascinated by an amazing bike that would go "dug dug dug dug" and was mostly owned either by policemen or by a selected few in our city. I never knew the name of that bike at that time but the sound made me turn my head everytime. Then I started to grow up and my focus shifted to the bikes with more sporty looks(CBZ). I bought my CBZ when I started going to college but a Royal Enfield (Bullet, as i knew it then) would still make my head turn. When I passed out of my College after completing my PG degree, I thought this would be the right time to get hold of the bike I had desired for long time. So, I got myself a Royal Enfield Thunderbird. It is an amazing feeling to ride a bike that has stood strong for 50 years and is still a fantasy for the young and old alike.

Memories

Yesterday I was
Sitting under the tree
Thinking of the times
That u spent with me

I thought of the times
When sitting under the same tree
I used to admire the nature
Waiting for your entry

I thought of the times
When we went hand in hand
Sitting besides the sea
Making castles on the sand

I thought of the times
When I was in pain
You were the one to say
This isn’t the last stop of life’s train

I thought of the times
When my dark side was near
I dreamt that you’ve left me
And I always had that fear

And then my nightmare came true
And my dreams were shattered
When I met you last
“Goodbye”, were the words you uttered

If you wish to come back
Pardoning all the faults done by me
I would still be waiting for you
Under the same old tree.

The best father and son song.

My dad told me he used to sing this song for me when I was very young but I had never got a chance to listen to this song until I became a dad. And then I realised how amazing this song actually is and how aptly this song fits dad-son relationship. Given below are the lyrics of the song and the youtube link to the song.

Tujhe sooraj kahoon ya chanda
Tujhe deep kahoon ya taara
Mera naam karega roshan
Jag mein mera raaj dulaara

Main kab se taras raha tha
Mere aangan mein koi khele
Nanhi si hansi ke badle
Meri saari duniya le le
Tere sang jhool raha hai
Meri baahon mein jag saara
Mera naam karega roshan
Jag mein mera raaj dulaara

Aaj ungli thaamke teri
Tujhe main chalna sikh laaoon
Kal haath pakadna mera
Jab main buddha ho jaaoon
Tu mila to maine paaya
Jeena ka naya sahaara
Mera naam karega roshan
Jag mein mera raaj dulaara

Meere baad bhi is duniya mein
Zinda mera naam rahega
Jo bhi tujhko dekhega
Tujhe mera laal kahega
Tere roop mein mil jaayega
Mujhko jeevan do baara
Mera naam karega roshan
Jag mein mera raaj dulaara

Tujhe sooraj kahoon ya chanda
Tujhe deep kahoon ya taara
Mera naam karega roshan
Jag mein mera raaj dulaara

My son got his head shaved.

I recently had to have my son's head shaved. Its a strange kind of concept and belief that I never really understood. Anyways, I am posting the "before" and "after" pics. I hope I keep blogging till he is old enough to understand and see my blog. Please feel free to leave comments.
