There’s just one life to love…



A little birdie told me
The secret of true love:
The one that’s in front of me
And another up above.


One soul in two bodies,
And two minds in a soul;
The bodies will perish sometime,
Soul plays the eternal role.

The soul is one,
Just one for the world,
But faces strange apart;
No matter how many faces play,
They all play the same part.

The force that binds
The world together,
In a garland of lovely
Red roses forever;
The friendship with you
Is the true calling for me,
And this is the answer
That changes I to we.

Change is the only constant
Experiences the universe.
The tune that binds our hearts
Sing the same verse.

You don’t know someone
Until you‘ve been their friend.
Friendship – not just to show
But to the core and till the end.

Love is nothing special
But friendship from the heart.
That special someone is not me or you
But the divine maker
Who’s the smartest of all.

When you love someone,
It’s not the person you love;
It’s the soul of the world
For which your heart beats,
And beats with a special tune
So special, yet common to all.
Be the one to recognize the vibes,
And listen to the divine call.

So, next time when you feel
Your heart beats for a soul;
Know, it’s your calling from the divine
After all, there’s just one life to love.

क़त्ल हुआ ।

न शोर मचा , न ख़ून किया , पर क़त्ल हुआ भई क़त्ल हुआ।               अन्दर से एक चीख़ उठी ,              न ध्वनि हुई , न मौन सुना,              कुछ चाहने  से पहले  ही ,              गला घोट के मार दिया।                           चोट  लगी थी , घाव हुआ ,                          न लहु बहा , न कष्ट हुआ ,                          एक घूंट इच्छा का पी कर ,                          थूक दिया , बस थूक दिया।                                      मुख़ालिफ़ है परिणाम , ...

Do You Dare to Dream? (Song Composition)

Image
Soaring, flying... There's not a star in heaven that we can't reach, C'mon, try it, Soaring, breaking free. Somewhere by the sea, Where the moon and water meet, Somewhere close to harmony When the world is sound asleep We'll bring a change Journey's we're meant to take. Do you dare to dream? -- X2 CHORUS: Do you dare to dream? -- X4 Don't you be afraid, Everything will change. You and I, And stars above. Jumping off the edge, They say dreamers never die. Do you dare to dream? -- X2 Repeat CHORUS We're rising We're falling We'll make it through Climbing and Soaring Above thousand views. 'Cause we're soaring, flying... There's not a star in heaven that we can't reach, C'mon, try it, Soaring, breaking free. I wrote this song composition originally for a stage performance in OCT-2018. And it makes for a motivating read as well :)

I’m here too

With so much hatred and violence all around these days, how do you think are we nurturing the blooms which are still learning to blossom? Just imagine - 3rd world war. No doubt, it would be a nuclear one. What would happen after that? ‘Total destruction’ - you would say, isn’t it? Never mind, mother nature would still nurture us all, even after the dark and heinous ways that humans choose sometimes. Some form of life will still find ways to exist, in minority though, yelling to be heard, yearning to be seen and having its beauty admired. Could you hear them say, “I’m here too”? No. Then go on to read the poetry that’s heart wrenching and eye-opening. At the end of the world, Protected in a pearl, A new life rises from below, A guiding star light says “Hello”. Making its presence felt,  Miracle it’s a magic spell.       ...
