Zindagi Ki Raahon Mein Aise Mod Bhi Aate Hain
Saawan Ke Saath-Saath Yehan Patjad Bhi Aate Hain
Aasuwon Ke Saagar Mein Moti Bhi Milthe Hain
Jo Unhe Doond lete hain, Wahi Zindagi Jee Lete Hain

Inspirable

When I Asked God for Strength
He Gave Me Difficult Situations to Face

When I Asked God for Brain & Brown
He Gave Me Puzzles in Life to Solve

When I Asked God for Happiness
He Showed Me Some Unhappy People

When I Asked God for Wealth
He Showed Me How to Work Hard

When I Asked God for Favors
He Showed Me Opportunities to Work Hard

When I Asked God for Peace
He Showed Me How to Help Others

God Gave Me Nothing I Wanted
He Gave Me Everything I Needed

Woh College ke din....

Kuch baate bhuli hui,
kuch pal beete hue,

Har galti ka ek naya bahana,
aur fir sabki nazar me aana,

Exam ki puri raat jagna,
fir bhi sawal dekhke sar khujana,

Mauka mile to class bunk marna,
fir doston k sath canteen jana

USKI ek jhalak dekhane roj college jana,
usko dekhte dekhte attendance bhul jana,

Har pal hai naya sapna,
aaj jo tute fir bhi hai apna,

Ye college ke din,
In lamho me jindagi jee bhar ke jeena,

Yaad karke in palon ko,
Fir jindagi bhar muskurana

Exam Tension

मैं कभी बतलाता नहीं... पर semester से डरता हूँ मैं माँ ...|
यूं तो मैं दिखलाता नहीं ... grades की परवाह करता हूँ मैं माँ ..|
तुझे सब है पता ....है न माँ ||

किताबों में ...यूं न छोडो मुझे..
chapters के नाम भी न बतला पाऊँ माँ |
वह भी तो ...इतने सारे हैं....
याद भी अब तो आ न पाएं माँ ...|


क्या इतना गधा हूँ मैं माँ ..
क्या इतना गधा हूँ मैं माँ ..||

जब भी कभी ..invigilator मुझे ..
जो गौर से ..आँखों से घूरता है माँ ...
मेरी नज़र ..ढूंढे qstn paper...सोचूं यही ..
कोई सवाल तो बन जायेगा.....||

उनसे में ...यह कहता नहीं ..बगल वाले से टापता हूँ मैं माँ |
चेहरे पे ...आने देता नहीं...दिल ही दिल में घबराता हूँ माँ ||


तुझे सब है पता .. है न माँ ..|
तुझे सब है पता ..है न माँ ..||

मैं कभी बतलाता नहीं... par semester से डरता हूँ मैं माँ ...|
यूं तो मैं दिखलाता नहीं ... grades की परवाह करता हूँ मैं माँ ..|

My college life absolutely rocked because I learnt what it means to rock...

I learnt the meaning of freedom. Till then, my life was a regimen. Strict. Dicliplined. Enforced with a cane, kind of routine. The kind of military regimen you encounter in a public school. Wake up a 5 AM, Brush teeth-Wash face-Change clothes-And out by 5.15.

Walk in a line to study-rooms-SILENCE-Pray-“GIVE ME THAT BOOK. NO, NOT THAT ONE, WHERE DID YOU GET THIS FROM? OPEN YOUR DESK!

Slick oiled canes bite hard into the skin leaving red welts that singe. Hard wooden rulers meet harder knuckles…at times breaking it in two. The pains of growing up. Well, that’s not really true. The pains of being a brat.

So you can imagine the kind of freedom…an exhilaration when you enter the portals of a college. You feel so grown up. Big. Strong. (Ok. At least till you encounter seniors)

No more canes. Pinches are there still but of a different kind…this one is more pleasurable.

No more crew-cuts! No more uniform! No more “thought control”.

Yep, freedom! Realised why people fight for it! Wage wars for it!

I rushed headlong into it.

The first thing I did was to grow my hair long. I wanted a nice pony tail. Talk about machism.(What women can do, men can try). And I wanted to be blonde. I just loved being a dumb blonde guy with a ponytail. Yeah. That rocked.

Now I needed a fan following. That was when I first felt the craving…the need to be the centre of attraction. (Girls only). So I decided on the flashiest of clothes. Yellow shirts, mauve shirts…red t.shirts…black ones with whacky irreverent messages…un-printable here…and shoes…yeah…it had to be the ones that do it.

This was the place and time when I first tasted sin. All those sinful delights which were just adolescent fantasies became real. The first puff of a cigarette…the first kiss of a girl…the first sip of whisky…a heady mix of firsts.

It was where I learnt to beg. For attendance. For marks. For love. The professors were of the opinion that I would make a great marketer. One who could sell anything.  

It was where I learnt to steal – Notes…on days where I was busy ogling or playing. I learnt to steal hearts through well-written love poems

A sample –

Darling, you make me fall in love

And I rise every time I do

I am crazy about you

You are like the perfume I wear

You intoxicate my senses

When you come near me

They say poetry flows when you are in love. So I guess I must have been out of love.

The years flew by. The College about rocked.

I still experience the tremors and shiver when I think of those days.

Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai."

"Aye shaheed-e-mulk-o-millat main tere oopar nisaar,

Ab teri himmat ka charcha ghair ki mehfil mein hai

Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai."

English Translation
O! Dispenser of India's destiny, thou art the ruler of the minds of all people
Thy name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, the Maratha country,
in the Dravida, Utkala and Bengal;
It echoes in the hills of the Vindhyas and Himalayas,
it mingles in the rhapsodies of the pure waters of Yamuna and Ganga
They chant only thy name.
They seek only thy auspicious blessings.
They sing only the glory of thy victory.
The salvation of all people waits in thy hands,
O! Dispenser of India's destiny, thou art the ruler of the minds of all people
Victory to thee, Victory to thee, Victory to thee,
Victory, Victory, Victory, Victory to thee!

Jai Hind

mera sapno ka bharat

मेरे सपनों का भारत कैसा हो? हां वो ऊँचा हिमालय के जैसा हो
जिसके होने से धरती का सीना तने, मुस्कुरा दे आसमां भी कुछ ऐसा हो
सर-सब्ज हो इसकी पावन जमीं, कुदरत की कोख में ये संवरता रहे, प्रकृति घायल न हो इस प्रांगन में कभी, सुलगती रेत पे भी बादल बरसता रहे
कोई बंधन न हो कोई अड़चन न हो, इसके आँचल की खुशबू हरेक को मिले
जाति- धर्मो के बंधन से बेहद परे, इसके साये में बस प्यार ही प्यार पले
देश की सत्ता जनता के हाथो में हो
गणतंत्र की मिठास फिजा में फ़ैली रहे
मिट जाए जौरो-सितम का नामोनिशा
हर मुसीबत की ऊंची दीवारे ढहे
यहाँ बचपन हो रौशन शिक्षा के दीये में
नौजवां जीवनभर आत्मनिर्भर रहे
बढ़ते कदमों के आगे कोई बंदिश ना हो
हर तरफ़ ज्ञान की पवित्र गंगा बहे
इसके आँगन में रोज फूल खिलते रहे
गांधी-सुभाष यूं ही इससे मिलते रहे
मलाल ना हो यहाँ पे किसी से किसी को
जख्म जो भी मिले, मिलकर सिलते रहे
विज्ञान का भविष्य इसका वर्तमान हो, आविष्कारों के जनक इसके संतान हो, क्षमताओं का क्षेत्र इतना व्यापक बने , ये दुनिया के देशो का भगवान हो
इतना होकर भी ये सबका साथी रहे
मानव-मूल्यों की रक्षा यहाँ लक्ष्य हो
इसकी आभा से रौशन हो सारा जहाँ
आगे बढ़ने का मौका सबके समक्ष हो
