Door Reh kar kareeb kitnay thay,
Faslay bhi Ajeeb kitnay thay,
Dard-E-Dil ki Dawa nahi warna,
Is jahan mein Tabeb kitnay thay,
Umer bhar Sath jo raha Tere,
Us k Achay Naseb kitnay thay,
Kyun na Aai me Tere sapno mein,
Mere Shikway Ajeeb kitnay thay..!!

Tere Dar pe, Arz kiya hai ki
tere der pe sanam hazar baar ayengey,
tere der pe sanam hazar baar ayengey,
Ghanti bajayengey aur bhaag jayengey.

Manzil ki taraf badhte raho.

Jo dil kahe usi rah ko chuno,

peeche walon ko age na jaane do

aur jo aage hai unse aage niklo.

Tabhi 1 acche Truck Driver banoge.

Zindagi jaise ek saza si ho gayi hai,
gam ke saagar me is kadar kho gayi hai,
tum kar do ek SMS yeh gujarish hai meri,
tumari SMS ki aadat si ho gayi hai.

We’re Late by W. H. Auden
Clocks cannot tell our time of day
For what event to pray
Because we have no time, because
We have no time until
We know what time we fill,
Why time is other than time was…

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
