Passion

Confused se the kuchh log mujhe baarish mein bheegta dekh kar
Aur main hans raha tha unke jannat ko chhatri se dhak lene par

Yaad aaya mujhe khud ka ek Einsteinspired quote kuchh puraana
Ki 'Passion looks just like madness to the observer'

:D

Vaada

Aaj kaha kisi ne ki hai karz ke jaisa
Har ek vaada jo bhi maine kiya hai

Khud se kiya vaada bhi hai karz hi shaayad, magar
Sochta hoon ki ye karz maine diya hai ya liya hai


PS: Today, on orkut ---"Today's fortune: A promise made is a debt unpaid."
Hence, the lines.

Khel

Tarsaana, aur phir achaanak se sab theek kar dena
Dekh ke ki tera banda thak ke haar jaane laga hai

Aye khuda dhoondh ab koi naya khel tu
Ki tera ye waala khel to ab samajh aane laga hai

The little prince

I read this story just now.... highly recommended. Without spoiling a lot, just quoting a few lines from the story. I have a pdf file so, in case you haven't already read it and are interested in reading drop a comment.

"Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is
tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them."

“You talk just like the grown-ups!” That made me a little ashamed. But he went on, relentlessly:
“You mix everything up together... You confuse everything...”


"When you tell grown-ups that you have made a new friend,
they never ask you any questions about essential matters. They never say to you, “What does his
voice sound like? What games does he love best? Does he collect butterflies?” Instead, they
demand: “How old is he? How many brothers has he? How much does he weigh? How much
money does his father make?”


"To forget a friend
is sad. Not every one has had a friend. And if I forget him, I may become like the grown-ups who
are no longer interested in anything but figures..."


"I did not know what to say to him. I felt awkward and blundering. I did not know how I could reach
him, where I could overtake him and go on hand in hand with him once more.
It is such a secret place, the land of tears."
