Riding to Sihaura(Sidsar)

It was my first long ride on my Fazer with my father to village Sihaura Distt. Ludhiana . We started the journey in the morning at 15 minutes to Eight . As the road was empty, we went at 55 km/h and reached my Bhua(Father's Sister) village (Ishanpur) in about 1 hour 15 minutes. I had a tasty breakfast over there with plenty of Lassi and Makhan , which are my favorite from the beginning. Then at 15 minutes past Ten we again continued our journey to Sihaura which is about 12 km from there . On our way back home we stopped at Dhak trees to get a sight of Keshu Flowers(Butea Monosperma). It was a good experience for me ..

To Nihal Singh Wala (My Maternal Village)

After finishing my +1 exams i thought of going to Nihal Singh Wala to meet my maternal grandparents. So , I left for the village on the very day on which i had my last exam. I sat in a bus heading toward Bathinda and took the ticket for Sangrur. While there was still time for bus to start a lady with her mother and child came and sat on the seat beside me. She asked me , ''where are you going ?" . I took me a while to think what to say as I was going to Nihal Singh Wala but the bus was not going toward that , hence i came to conclusion and said , "Sangrur". The time till Sangrur passed by playing with that woman's child .

From Sangrur, I sat in a bus for Barnala. After 10-15 minutes , i was about to sleep that suddenly a mob from Mastuana Gurudwara rushed into the bus and within a few seconds bus was completely full with not even a step to move and i gave my seat to an old woman of my grand mother's age as she claimed of having pain in her joints. The way till Dhanaula passed very uncomfortablly but i was proud to help an old woman . Then i reached Barnala and refreshed myself with some Popcorns and Cold Drink and took the bus for Himmatpura Bridges.

As I reached the bridges , there was no three wheeler Tempo over there and it was bound to take another 10-15 minutes to come, so to pass my time , i got under the bridges and saw a herd of Goats and Sheep and got a few pics of them and some of them really looked nice. Then the Tempo came and even if i could have had seat but i preferred to stand at the back 'cause it was more comfortable. I breathe a sigh of relief after reaching the village as i am a patient of Hodophobia ( Fear of Travel ) , not to that extent that i couldn't travel but i feel very uncomfortable .

HOLD ON - Jonas Brothers

Lyrics of my favorite song (Hold ON) :-

We don’t have time left to regret, hold on
And we’ll take more than common sense, hold on
So stop your wondering, take a stand, hold on
'Cause there’s more to life than just to live, hold on

'Cause an empty room can be so loud
There’s too many tears to drown them out
So hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

One single smile, a helping hand, hold on
It’s not that hard to be a friend, hold on
So don’t give up, stand 'til the end, hold on
'Cause there’s more to life than just to live, hold on

'Cause an empty room can be so loud
There’s too many tears to drown them out
So hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

When you love someone and they break your heart
Don’t give up on love, have faith, restart
Just hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

When it falls apart and you're feeling lost
All your hope is gone, don’t forget to hold on
Hold on!

'Cause an empty room can be so loud
There’s too many tears to drown them out
So hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

When you love someone and they break your heart
Don’t give up on love, have faith, restart
Just hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

'Cause an empty room can be so loud
There’s too many tears to drown them out
So hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

When you love someone and they break your heart
Don’t give up on love, have faith, restart
Just hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

Strings - Zinda Hoon

Here's the Lyrics of the Song from the Bollywood Movie - Zinda:-

yeh hai meri kahani
khamosh zindagani
sannata keh raha hai
kyun zulm seh raha hai

ek dastaan purani
tanhayi ki zubani
her zakham khil raha hai
kuch mujh se keh raha hai

chubtay kantay yadoon ke daaman say chunta hoon
girti deewaron ke aanchal mai zinda hoon

bass yeh meri kahani
benishaan nishaani
ek darr beh raha hai
kuch mujh se keh raha hai

chubtay kaanten yadoon ke daaman se chunta hoon
girti deewaron ke aanchal mein zinda hoon

bajay pyaar ki shabnum mere gulistaan mein
baraste rehte hain har simt maut ke saye
siyahiyon se ulajh padti hain meri aankhein
koi nahi .. koi bhi nahi jo batlaye
kitni der ujalon ki raah dekhe
koi nahi hai koi bhi nahi
na pass na durr
yeh pyaar hai
dil ki dharkan
apni chahat ka jo ellan kiye jaati hai
zindagi hai jo jiye jaati hai
khoon k ghoont peay jaati hai
khwaab aankhon se siye jaati hai

ab na koi paas hai
phir bhi ehsaas hai
sihaeeyon mai uljhi padi
jeene ki ek aas hai
yadoon ka jungle yeh dil
kaanton se jal thal yeh dil

chubtay kaanten yadoon ke daaman se chunta hoon
girti deewaron ke aanchal mein zinda hoon

Say , I Am You(Sufi Poem) -Molana Jalaluddin Rumi

The Video gives the exact shape to our ideas, which we visualize while reading the Poem.

Here are the lyrics of the mystic poem:-

I am dust particles in sunlight.
I am the round sun.

To the bits of dust I say, Stay.
To the sun, Keep moving.

I am morning mist,
and the breathing of evening.
I am wind in the top of a grove,
and surf on the cliff.

Mast, rudder, helmsman, and keel,
I am also the coral reef they founder on.

I am a tree with a trained parrot in its branches.
Silence, thought, and voice.

The musical air coming through a flute,
a spark of stone, a flickering in metal.
Both candle and the moth crazy around it.
Rose, and the nightingale lost in the fragrance.

I am all orders of being, the circling galaxy,
the evolutionary intelligence, the lift, and the falling away.

What is, and what isn't.

You who know, Jelaluddin,
You the one in all, say who I am.
Say I am you.

Jaane Woh Kaise Log The Jinke - Sahir Ludhianvi

This is an amazing song from Pyassa movie by Guru Dutt .

I just watched the movie based depicting the life of a poet and capitalist system

Sung by Hemant Kumar

Here's the Lyrics by Sahir Ludhianvi:-

Jaane Woh Kaise Log The Jinke Pyar Ko Pyar Mila
Humne To Jab Kaliyaan Maangi Kaaton Ka Haar Mila

 

Bichhad Gayaa Har Saathi Dekar Pal Do Pal Ka Saath
Kisko Phursat Hai Jo Thaame Deewane Ka Haath
Humko Apna Saaya Tak Aqsar Bezaar Mila
Humne To Jab...

 

Isko Hi Jeena Kehte Hain To Yunhi Ji Lenge
Uf Na Karenge Lab See Lenge Aansoo Pee Lenge
Gham Se Ab Ghabraana Kaisa Gham Sau Baar Mila
Humne To Jab...

 

The Light Has Gone Out !!!!

Nehru's Speech on Gandhi's Death

Friends and Comrades, the light has gone out of our lives and there is darkness everywhere. I do not know what to tell you and how to say it. Our beloved leader, Bapu as we called him, the Father of the Nation, is no more. Perhaps I am wrong to say that. Nevertheless, we will never see him again as we have seen him for these many years. We will not run to him for advice and seek solace from him, and that is a terrible blow, not to me only, but to millions and millions in this country. And it is a little difficult to soften the blow by any other advice that I or anyone else can give you.

The light has gone out, I said, and yet I was wrong. For the light that shone in this country was no ordinary light. The light that has illumined this country for these many years will illumine this country for many more years, and a thousand years later, that light will be seen in this country and the world will see it and it will give solace to innumerable hearts. For that light represented something more than the immediate past, it represented the living, the eternal truths, reminding us of the right path, drawing us from error, taking this ancient country to freedom.

All this has happened when there was so much more for him to do. We could never think that he was unnecessary or that he had done his task. But now, particularly, when we are faced with so many difficulties, his not being with us is a blow most terrible to bear.

A madman has put an end to his life, for I can only call him mad who did it, and yet there has been enough of poison spread in this country during the past years and months, and this poison has had an effect on people’s minds. We must face this poison, we must root out this poison, and we must face all the perils that encompass us, and face them not madly or badly, but rather in the way that our beloved teacher taught us to face them.
