A PAINTER

Is there a painter I wonder
To paint a face better than yours
To play with colors like it's in his soul
To paint me a wonder
Even Gods behold

Could he paint eyes
With so much love
To make a sword refuse to kill
And fill them with water
To wash away the slaughter
Time has in my heart drilled

Could he paint the lips
Cherrier than red
So I feel your kisses in my viens
Could he make them smile
Convincing my heart
Of a moment devoid of pain

If he does exist
A painter so good
Who hypnotizes using colors
Let him stay home in heaven please
Let him not envy the admirer of his work
As my words fill life and enchant his masterpiece

A NEW DRUG



          We live in The Republic of Cricketland (read as India), and yet all the cricket related strategies we can make are when Sehwag gets out playing an utterly non-sense eyes-shut shot or when Dhoni decides to give the last over of the world cup final to an underdog. And surprisingly, we are quite good at it, or at least like to believe so. Thus giving rise to a soft-spot in the market here for professional game developers as well as players. It's been tapped well in popular games like football but cricket has yet to see its day in the sun here. But dawn is coming with advent of  Hitwicket, and believe you me, the cunning dudes behind this are to watch out for.

          Anybody familiar with the game of Cricket would understand that it's not really a game of gentlemen, no matter how much the stone-age Englishmen would like us to believe that.  It's a game of skill, patience, quick-thinking and the most important - the ability to develop a tactical long term plan, known as strategising. It's a game involving not a lazy Sunday (or any other day for that matter) but passion (as The God himself says) and perseverance 365(6) days a year. There are Sachins and Warnes in all of us and so are Kirstens and Buchanans. Well, Hitwicket is for all you amazing managers and coaches. Just like in real, you can do everything for your team here, but actually get on the field to play. You recruit, fire, sell and buy players, train them, set strategic line-ups for your matches, sell tickets for the same and earn revenue, thus there being a need to manage finances as well. And these are just the easy cherries, the real cream and crust lie within.

          The game makers have been smart enough to make the game really simple for the new users and introduce new features as you gain experience points as a result of your activities and time spent in the game. And the more features you unlock, the more hooked you get. So, if you thought AOE, Dota, CS or GTA was addictive, my friend, you have some thinking to do. The finer details of the game have got all users abandoning their primary reasons to live life and have developed some zombie like symptoms towards the game. Beware, do not get bit, or else, you shall find yourself forbidding anything that overlaps your passion for the game. Yes, passion, it doesn't matter if you have it for Cricket or not you will get passionate towards this game. And it's not just me who's saying this, here's a quote from one of the users, 
Wow!! What a game!!! Amazing!! Have been so much in love with this!! My GF left me, might get fired, but don't care, love this game too much to care about other silly things in life ....
           All in all, a great stupendously great strategy game for users of all ages and mindsets. Get a T20 franchisee of your own and beat the other 16000 to be the best cricket team manager, before it becomes a new deadly drug and gets banned.

p.s. yes i am a user of this game and there are many more like me who have something to say about in testimonials.

KAASH

Kaash
Suraj ko kabhi dhalna na hota
Hawao ko badalna na hota
Is waqt ko guzarna na hota
Kaash
Koi dil kabhi tuta na hota

Kaash
Lehro se takrata nahi
Bas kisiki muskaan ke liye
Kaash
Khudko jalata nahi
Tanha dil ki thand se bachaane ke liye

Kaash
Pochhe hote aansu kabhi
Apne bhi naino se nikalte hue
Kya peeli do boondein ashkon ki
Kaash
Ye zeher piya na hota

Kaash
Khuda ka ghar itna door na hota
Pyar mein dard, itna na hota
Dil pe kabhi kabu bhi hota
Kaash
Ye kaash na hota

SLAY MY HEART

Some real, some fake
Some true, some made
Are words hounding your ears
Some evil, some not
But don't know what's what
Believe, don't trust, until it's clear

Some by you, some by me
Some by the great almighty
Are bonds made to forever last
Let not your fate
Be bewitched by hate
Let not be our distance so vast

Look closely my dear
My heart's all clear
Not a drop of slyness I bear
But the witch you believe
Has been known to conceive
Words to poison bonds of care

I was the one
To whom you could run
Someone with whom you could cry
Promised to be there forever
Loved you, knowing you would never
And you choose to have my heart die

BEHKA

Mere hottho tale shabd hain kuchh
Kabhi hottho pe apne sajao na
Baatein uthti jo dil mein hain
Kabhi tum unhe kar jao na

Kyun sharm ki chaadar odhhe tum
Pyar ki thandak se bachti ho
Kehte hain pyar mein hota hai khuda
Kabhi namaaz mujhey bhi sikhao na

Jo rakhna hai dil apne paas hi
To muskaano se yun chhaliyao na
Na rahi nashili sharab koi
Mera naam leke mujhey behkao na

ZINDAGI

Kabhi ghulam hai zindagi
Kabhi badnaam hai zindagi
Katputli hai tere man ki ye toh
Badi nadaan hai zindagi

Kabhi ojhal hai aansuon ke tale
Kabhi kuchh sapne ye bunte chale
Kabhi registaan to kabhi hai nadi
Dil ka aina hai zindagi

Isse tujhey pyar hai kabhi
Kabhi tu hai kaatil iska
Hokar teri kabhi, sirf teri nahi
Sune ye dil ki, aur dil kisi aur ka

Kabhi bekaar hai zindagi
Kabhi lachaar zindagi
Kabhi hai ek ugta suraj
Kabhi ek laash hai zindagi

Hai ek paheli ye toh
Jiski suljhan me bas uljhan hai
Jis pal ho man me bas pyar ki ladi
Wo chhota sa pal hai zindagi

TERI MUSKAAN

Teri chuppi se baatein karna acha lagta hai
Tere dard ko peena acha lagta hai
Teri palko pe padti har boond ke liye
Thoda sa marna acha lagta hai

Wo baatein milkar ho nahi paati
Jo duriyan dil se karvati hain
Bichhadne ka dar to hame bhi hai
Par us dar me jeena acha lagta hai

Sab kuch kho kar ek junoon hai man me
Ke kho dun khud ko teri khushiyo ke liye
Tu meri ho ya kisi aur ki
Teri muskaan ki wajah hona acha lagta hai

KARMA

In a dark room of thoughts
My heart sits to rot
Some moments some memories burn me alive
There's pain in the air
Thorns prick me everywhere
I am smiling, with no tears left in my eyes

There's a mystical urge to love you
To make you feel like I do
But there's a wall you've drawn that keeps me far
You call me a friend
But you just pretend
You don't know how you've scarred my heart

I got lost in the haze
Thinking we'll be the same always
But a cloak of lies now you wear
You toyed with my heart
Tore it apart
You're not but karma is fair

KHWAISHEIN

Tere khayalo ke kohre me kho jaun
Tere ishq me haste haste ro jaun
Bohot jee liye khudayi zindagi
Tu mil jaye to khud khuda ho jaun

Teri baaton ki dhun gungunaoon
Koi kahe pagal to mai sharmaoon
Bohot bana liye bahane ab
Banke tera mashooq ab tujhsey milne aoon

Teri muskaan asmaan pe bichhaoon
Khuda se na hua wo kar jaun
Jo na doon khushi ek pal ko tujhey
To jeena bekaar, mai mar jaoon

A DEMON'S ROLE

Your hollowed heart is a grave
Destroying the beautiful cemetery my world is in
The fortress of lies and betrayals you crave
Shall tumble as the demon of love will rise within

Your ruthless wizardry of charm
That has slayed a dozen angels
Will end, you will be unarmed
To burn alone in the fire fuelled by your tears

Your mask of beauty and smiles
Halloweening the evil inside
But time will end your guile
Exposing the scavenger you hide

The graveless deads that you created
Will fill their hearts with blood from your soul
You'll get no pyre nor cremated
Love is a godly creation, you're in a demon's role

LEGENDS OF YOU


"Not everything is possible. Of course I am not always right.." -- Sachin 'The Little Master' Tendulkar
Happy Birthday to Sachin Tendulkar. This is all I am worthy of saying to this legend. This is not another tribute to Sachin but something that may help you get such tributes for the rest of your life and even after that. And I am right.

Possible is something that you think can happen, impossible is something that you think, can't. So, it's a matter of what you think. Nobody thought in Cricket, a 16 year old lad could hammer the shit out of the best pacemen of their times. Nobody thought humans could fly. Nobody thought a feeble old man with a piece of cloth around his body, a wooden stick in hand and harry potter glasses (of course HP didn't exist then) could end a 200 years old empire and become the father of a nation. It was all IMPOSSIBLE. But it did happen, didn't it? I would say we're somewhere wrong with our definition of impossible. Of course impossible exists but just like light and darkness do. Unless you light something up, it's dark. So, it's impossible that not everything is possible.

We all have watched movies which have made us cry, laugh, angry, sad, etc. But in our hindsight we all know that it's just a movie. SRK didn't really die in Kal Ho Na Ho nor did Sanjay Dutt get into a medical school (oh, he's getting into a very, very different place in real :D).They were all just movies which we enjoyed and moved on with our lives with no attachments to them. Likewise, the whole world is a movie which runs in your mind. You're constantly writing the script in your mind and your brain, the director, is doing its job and projecting the movie to you using your senses. What you see, what you hear, smell, feel or taste is just a projection which may or may not be true. We've all had incidences when we've missed seeing, hearing or feeling something even though it was right there. We have all daydreamed about things that don't exist and we've realised their non-existence only when we've come back to our senses. Thus, your mind controls your and your environment's existence. You believe something to be true when your mind says it is, you believe it to be POSSIBLE when your mind says it is.

Now, this is not what usually happens with all people. Or as we like to call them, extraordinary people. So, what do extraordinary people have that we don't? It's a belief that one can achieve what they want no matter how impossible it seems. A belief that no goal is higher than the will to achieve it. A belief that if one person can do something then even we can because after all we're made out of the same elements of the universe. And if you aim to achieve something that nobody else has, then you have a rare opportunity to inspire a whole new generation by doing what nobody else has done before. This is what legends believe, this is what legends are made of. This is what YOU are made of. Is there any instance where you have pursued something with all your heart and sweat and with no fear or doubts about failure, and have not achieved your goal? There won't be. But if you haven't pursued something in this way it's time you do. I know many of us believe it's easier said than done but believe me, it's much easier done than said. So, how do we do it?

I am not going to tell you something that you don't already know. It's something that you've known since a long time but hardly followed.

So here it goes: start believing that you have what you want, or you can reach where you want to reach. Believe it like a fanatic. Believe it so much that just a thought of your goal inspires you to new degrees and you get an adrenaline rush. And here is how you can strengthen your belief. Once something gets in your subconscious mind, your subconscious starts to give you signals in form of hunches, dreams, sixth-sense as we call it. You need to trust those signals and follow them. Your subconscious has all the knowledge of the universe since the time you are conceived by your parents. We need to access the subconscious and tell it what we want and trust me, it'll get it to you. To reach your subconscious, you need to be relaxed or in technical terms, your mind needs to be in alpha state in which the frequency of your brain waves is 8-12 Hz. Normally, the frequency when we're actively awake, i.e. in the beta state, is 14-30 Hz. There are various relaxation techniques you can find on Internet or you can buy books too.

Once your goal has reached your subconscious, you will just have to follow your instincts and achieve your goal. To know in more detail about your subconscious mind, you can get a book, "Spring of Inspiration" by Dr. Jitendra Adhia.

Maybe, after reading this technique, you will first laugh at it, then think about believing it, then one day if and when you have everything going against you and you don't know why, you will believe it. Once you start believing and following it, you will live it. And once you start living it, you will start living. So, don't leave it for the worst moments, follow it from your best moments so that the worsts don't arrive at all.

So, to sum up, there's nothing you can't get that you want. There's a legend inside us. We too can be a Sachin, or a Mahatma or even Christ. Or maybe we already are?

Prahlaad Tumhara

Kabhi sochte hain hum
Ke tum jo zindagi me aye
To kya tadap di hai saathi
Ke jaate jaate bhi jaan na jaye
Aur bin tadpe mazaa na jaye

Ye husn ki tijori
Chahe band rakho hijaab ke taale se
Hai dil jo iski chhabhi
Khazaana to lut hi jayega

Hai jo fakr itna surat par apni
Gumaan hai khubsurti ke vardaan par
Ayega Narasimh tumhara bhi
Jo mai hu Prahlaad tumhara

JEEVAN KI ROSHNI


Soch raha hu kya lafz likhu
Jinme tu utar paye
Bayaan karu teri khubsurti kaise
Ye zubaan mere dil ko samajh na paaye

Kya jaadu hai muskaan me teri
Jo murde bhi harshayein
Chamak hai aisi chehre me tere
Bin ankho wale rango me nahayein

Kya karu shukriya khuda ka mai
Awaaz jo teri kaano tak aaye
Ehsaas kuch aisa hota hai
Koyaliya koi geet sunaye

Tere bas hone se hi
Jee karta hai jine ka
Hai mere jeevan ki roshni tu
Hai tujhmey khuda,
Tere aage wo bhi sar jhukaye

A DYING STAR


I saw a star pass by
Moving slowly like a tear,
When babies cry
Moving down without a hope
Without a wish, without a grope

Away from home by a billion light years
Still lit not the world, but the universe
Burning inside hotter than the sun
A mask of silver, making Christmas fun

Wonder the kids as up above the world
This diamond twinkles and twirls
Nothing hides from its light
Knows the way to new born Christ

It dies as an unsolved mystery
An enchanting tale of fascinating history
As it dies all old and worn
It grows beautiful with the tail it adorns

A dying star is a sight to behold
Watch it close, as a lesson unfolds
Lights the universe though burning inside
Making millions watch as it dies

ULJHAN


Uljhan me hai zubaan
Kahe to kya kahe aisa
Jo kisi aur ne kaha na ho
Kya mai kahu
Ke khafa hu mai us har lamhe se
Jisme tu muskuraya na ho

Ya fir kahun hone se tere
Achha lagta hai jeena
Naa jaane kya nasha hai tujhmey
Ke mai bhul gaya peena

Uljhan me hai zubaan
Par is uljhan me wo suljhan hai
Jo milti hai na mandir na masjid me
Kehte honge log khel isse dil ka
Mere liye to swayam khuda se milan hai

KUCHH BAATEIN AISI

Jo hotth kabhi naa keh payen
Kuchh baatein aisi karni hain
Jo samajhaye tu na samajh paye
Kuchh baatein aisi karni hain

Jo kehte hain hans ek duje se
Jo baatein hain panchhi aur pawan ki
Jo baatein hoti hain bin bhasha ke
Kuchh baatein aisi karni hain

Jo sochke tumhara dil ghabraye
Par sochna bhi pyara lage
Jin baaton se hamare dil sharmayen
Kuchh baatein aisi karni hain

Kehna chahta hai jo khuda jag se
Jo bacha hai bas kitabon me
Likhi jayen kahaniyan fir se
Mujhey baatein aisi karni hain
