Safar-e-zindagi...

Ek aap jaise kuch kadradanon ki wajah se he to hum hai...
warna apni hasti bhi mitti mein gum hai....
jahan se aaye the, wahin to ek din jaana hai.....
phir is sach se kyon sharmana hai..
na hasti rahegi ek din na naam...
bas kuch nagme, aur thodi jaam...
koi nahin jaanta apna anjaam....
arey ye dunya karti hai har ek ko badnam....
main to yaha ka musafir hoon....
nahin mera koi thikana hai....
aaj ko jeta hoon,kal kisne jana hai...
jo aaya tha usko to ek din usi mitti mein mil jana hai...
kuch meri chahat hai,aur baaki beimaan zamana hai
bas is hasti ko jab tak bachana hai....
jab tak khak se nahin hua dostana hai....
uske baad to wahi mera ghar hai,wahi gharana hai....
mitti se aaya tha... mitti mein he mil jana hai....
mitti mein mil jana hai, mitti mein mil jana hai....

Random Thoughts...

"Wanting to write something,which is hidden,
I write that something, not meant to be written."

Well, for a past few days, I am feeling restless.Nothing to do, nowhere to go and thoroughly confused about what to do.So that is a brief overview of my mind's state.Last few days have really been a hard time for me. Its that time when you know that you have to do many things but still you are doing nothing, because you don't feel like doing anything and why you feel like not doing anything is still a mystery. You then think its better to let the things as they are and not to worry about them. But the more you try to avoid these things the more you are into it. You don't want to unfurl that mystery but still you are curious, thats human nature. Your mind is always in a conflict and running through contradictions, well thats my mind am talking about. I have lots to think about and lots to do. But I am taking this time as to relax and more than relaxing, I am getting impatient. I know that I have to prepare for my job, to do some work entrusted upon me by my parents ( well I had voluntarily asked them, that I would do that work ), to clean my room ( hahaha... I usually do that when I have got no place to sit ;) ) and the most important of all study for CAT. But as the gods are in my favour, I have become lazy to that extent that now even eating food has become a trying job for me. God knows what I am trying to do and where am I trying to lead myself and my life. Today the things were so unbearable for me that I just wanted to went out my anger or frustrations as many would say somewhere so I thought that this would be the place.
People usually change from good to better but yours truly is changing from bad to worse. Its that state of life that I detest the most. Why?? Because here I am having no pressure to do anything. My parents are satisfied about their ward, my friends are not in the town ( only a few are, but they are also busy ), my company is not calling me before Oct and whenever I sit for studtying I feel hungry or have a headache ;) . I am not enjoying the things that I used to enjoy , that is reading and music. Am fed up with computers and net. And above all, when I tell people what my life is going through, I am advised very sincerely that I should take a break and go for a holiday. So, now am totally confused what to do and what not to do. Therefore, I decided today that I would pour out my mind in this space. And frankly, speaking am feeling a lillte better, who knows by tomorrow I would be alright or might go more deep into the misery. Still, I hope for the best and am planning to do some better things now. And try to reorganise my life.
So, I just say God Bless Me :D and also God Bless you All ( as I know you all would be thinking I have gone mad and by making you all read these thoughts making you mad )
hahaahaha....

Have a great time fellas,
C ya soon,

Manish :)

Jeewan aur Main...

Sukon na dil ko mila, na mann to chain aaya,
Aaj jab akele baith kar socha, ki jeewan mein kya paaya,
Kya is anndhi duniya ne,nacheez ko anndha banaya,
Ya is manzar ke nashe mein, khud ko he luta aaya,
Teemir ke samrajya mein, zameer bech khaaya,
Aaj ji kar bhi zinda nahin hoon, kyon aisa samaa hai,
Jeewan ke is soone safar mein, zindagi ko na gaale lagaya,
Maya ke bhanwar mein, apna vivek gavaya,
Aaj jeewan ki antim shaam mein,saath nahin hai apna saaya,
Woh bhi prakash ka saathi hai, aandhkar usse na bhaaya,
Kuch sochta hoon main, kuch jaannana hai mujhko,
Main kaun hoon? Main kahan se aaya?
Sirf khoya he to hai maine, kabhi na kuch paaya,
Aaj jab aanth aaya, to jeewan ka saar samajh paaya,
Yahan kaun hai apna. Yahan kaun hai apna...
Yahan har koi hai paraaya......

Rains.. Rains.. and More Rains.....

"Rain, rain, go away
Come again some other day
We want to go outside and play
Come again some other day"

These lines are from the nursery rhyme that we all used to sing when we were kids. At that age rains used to fascinate us.It was an enchantress that used to keep us kids spellbounded.The fun and the frolic, the singing and dancing all was just great at times but over the years of growing up the spell seems to be falling apart.The childhood memories were of greenry and happiness aal around, we never knew that rains could be that devastating or leave apart rains our so pure heart could never take anything to be devastating and bad. The years since have passed by and over these years we have encountered a variety of seasons, but if you look in fact its the rainy season that always capture the imagination of the mortals.Its the rains that make the poet write, it forms a perfect backdrop for lovers, a mood setter for singers and composers, an exciting match for players and what not. It has all the things that are need to capture ones imagination and it does that with ease.

The romance with rain drops is impossible to be described in words its just eternal. But the romance seems to be passing over these recent years. With the changing weather cycle, due to various reasons, the rain god has started playing havoc.With the parts of counrty receiving unprecedented rainfall, people have started fearing rains.The desert has been flooded with water.The plains inundated, while the rainshadow areas submerged.And add to the woes of people, this havoc is not stopping.

All this has struck to me due to the fact that, that my own city has witnessed such fury of the rain god.Infact all it happened was just a short spell and a heavy downpour, taking with all the things and the belongings of the people, while they watched helplessly. It was a sad scene, when we watch our creations ( I say our creations as it was the result of our efforts) washing away, the memories of our past being gobbled by the flowing waters, who have got no sense of direction or path, it just knows how to flow and that too with fury. The elixir has turned into poison.

I just say, Oh! lord. Show us mercy.

P.s. I just wished that something could be done about this. We all should try to find some solution to avoid these flood. And all the departed souls R.I.P.

Happy Independence Day!!!

Wishing All Indians Happy Independence Day!!!

Lets pledge and keep our tricolour flying proud and high.

Here I bring you some of our tricolour's shades I liked...

Happy Friendship Day!!!

The fresh air was caressing my face,
Making my heart beat at a faster pace,
It marked a beginning of a new phase,
Where we all run the life's race.

As I put my feet on the ground,
The world started spinning around,
I felt it all shaky beneath,
And I stood there holding my breath.

The first step into the room,
Flooded with faces of new bloom,
I realised I was one of them,
Searching for a helping hand.

I spotted u sitting quitely,
Looking towards me intently,
The eyes which said it all,
Though they were round and small.

I took my place right beside you,
You made me feel secure and true,
That marked the beginning of a journey,
Called as friendship by many.

We sat through thick n thin,
Sometimes crying, sometimes grinnin,
The jokes and fights apart,
We always rode in the friendship's cart.

Whenever my life opened a new chapter,
where the things and the surroundings alter,
And a feeling of being lost came in,
I saw u towards me looking.

Smile on your face was like an angel,
Friend you are a gift so beautiful,
Few are gifted to have a true friend,
I will retain this relationship till the end.

Even when my life takes me far,
Between us there would be no bar,
And I know even then, when I need you,
I'll find you helping me thru.

I take this day to say just a thing,
Our friendship is unending,
Even if we are far apart,
We know, we live in each others Heart.

Dear friend I always pray for you,
You achieve what you want to,
And as I wish you, I say,
Happy Friendships Day!!!

PS. This lil' poem is dedicated to all my friends near or far.... Thanx for being my friend... :)

Blocking of Blogger domains...

Its really disheartning to see that the Indian Govt has brought down its axe on the blogs. Just bcoz few of those were not giving out the correct content or the content which the government thought was not in the interest of the country. The govt. may b right about the content but does it mean curbing the right to speech of a commoner. Its basically autocratic means of functioning, where the ruler decides whats right n whats wrong and in this way, the system functions.
For the govt. the list they gave to the ISPs it could have been more specific but no, without any reason, the whole domains were blocked. This basicaly means that somewhere deep down there is a serious fault in the functioning of the system. For a selected few the whole lot is being punished, thats unfair.Basically after the Mumbai serial blasts the govt. has got into action but the way the things are going on its sad. For some reason they are curbing the freedom to speech and dont knw what they hold for us in the future. But the basic fact remains that the intelligence has failed and now no use crying over spilt milk, try to address the basic cause of the problem, the leaks and not the commoner.
I think that the govt. will realize that, by curbing the freedom of speech they are doing nothing much but only hurting the sentiments of ppl more n more. Lets hope for a better tomorrow.God bless all the souls.

No title for this one.... Readers' are welcome to suggest one :)

Counting the seconds I was there,
Making it into hours of time,
Stretching those into days,
Finally ending into decades.
Life was stretching into years,
but I was still rooted to a place,
Things were moving n gaining,
But I was still searching for a name.
Somethings made sense during the trip,
While I was tripping over the rest,
Mutable thoughts never ending,
WOrries n troubles round the clock.
Mooching in the feelings forest,
Wanting to know the real thing,
Nearer as I came to it,
Farther it wades into space.
Seeing things come n go,
I age through the process,
Wisdom is hard to attract,
Failing in which I cannot.
Greying the body is there,
But the grey matter is not grey,
I realise viewing in different light,
Hard questions' answers I find.

Happiness...

I took the pen to scribble,
The few memories I had,
Little of them here,
And little of them there.

Beautiful in a way I say,
The time spent with my friends,
Feelin of those days,
I just lay happy awake.

Sweet things were they,
Heavenly in their own way,
Oh.. oh.. what a life it is,
Few things here and a few there.

I write here abound,
Feelings flowin profound,
singing in its own way,
My hearts merry and gay.

I lie with open eyes,
Flowing in the memories clouds,
A lil' dark and a lil' light,
Oh my what a beautiful sight.

Happiness is there to stay,
Beautiful and merrier than ever,
THe way things come and go,
My days are more livelier...

Am happy am happy am happy
more than i cud say....
making more of the time I have
and more of my earths stay....
am happy am happy am happy....
what a day i say......
am happy am happy am happy....
