From the letter

Another excerpts from *the letter* I am yet to give :(

"I close my eyes, I see a large pool filled with colored water and I am hanging above it with head towards the pool, I fell into it, get wet and colored, the rope
pull me back out of the pool and then put me again into it, like somebody is
aggressively putting me in pool, I open my eyes, I am sitting in room writing
this, I close my eyes this time the pool is filled with boiling what and again I
fell into it, the to and fro motion, I open my eyes, I am sitting here, again I close
my eyes this time the pool is filled with mud, and again I fell into it, then it
throws me out of it, I fell in sand and I am still smiling. Looks like its just my
imagination. But it may be symbolizing something. The last scene, my smiling
face made me fearless"

इस दस्त में इक शहर था वो क्या हुआ?

I am listening to a very very beautiful ghazal by Ghulam ali, and I want to dedicate this post to this ghazal। The ghazal starts with a 'sher' which goes like, अपनी आवाज़ की लर्जिश पे तो काबू पा लो, प्यार के बोल तो होठों से निकल आते है, अपने तेवर तो सम्भालों की कोई ये न कहे दिल बदलते है तो चेहरे भी बदल जाते है। I don't remember how many times i have listened this ghazal but still each time i listen to this, it gives me a new meaning. This is the beauty of ghazals, you can get a new meaning every time you listen. ये दिल ये पागल दिल मेरा क्यूँ बुझ गया, आवारगी, इस दस्त में इक शहर था वो क्या हुआ, आवारगी! The english translation is impossible, attempting that will be like killing the ghazal। What I could understand from this line is "what had happened to me", इक अजनबी झोंके ने जब पूछा जब मेरे ग़म का शबब सेहरा की भीगी रेत पे मैंने लिखा, आवारगी। Then ghulam ali sahab takes us to some other place by just his voice, amazing. ये दर्द की तन्हाईयाँ, ये दस्त का वीरान सफर, हम ल

आख़िर तमन्ना ही तो है!

तमन्ना का क्या है? आख़िर तमन्ना ही तो है! न ख्वाब है, न हकीकत है! तमन्ना तो बस तमन्ना है। जो सच नही वो ख्वाब है, जो सच है वो हकीकत है। जो ख्वाब हो कर भी हकीकत लगे, वो तमन्ना है शायद। खुली आंखों से जो दिखे, वो हकीकत है, जो बंद आंखों से दिखे वो ख्वाब है, जो दोनों से दिखे वो तमन्ना है शायद। सोच कर ही जिसके बारे में, आह निकले वो है तमन्ना! ख्वाब है न हकीकत है, तमन्ना तो बस तमन्ना है! ख्वाब तो फिर भी पूरे हो जाते है तमन्ना तो बस तमन्ना रहती है! पूरी हो जाए जो तमन्ना वो तमन्ना नहीं ख्वाब था। न ख्वाब है न हकीकत है, तमन्ना तो बस तमन्ना है। हर पल एक नई तमन्ना है, हर पल पुरानी को भूलना है। आख़िर तमन्ना ही तो है!

I am .5CH happy today! and you?

I wonder if we can measure emotions with some unit, like I am 2 kg happy or 1 kg sad,or 1 liter sad! i always use it! and today i am 2 kg happy! It has become our tendency to compare things, like 1 kg is equivalent to the mass of platinum cylinder kept in some place under the observation of a international organization so the thing is that everything is relative, since i am about to set a unit for happiness , i too need to set some standard from which we will compare our happiness, lets take some person as standard, can it be Warren Buffet, after all he is the world's richest person, we can put him as standard, but then there is a problem, he will not be the richest person all the time, so he will not be the happiest person all the time, so can it be Shahrukh khan! he is the king khan, billions of people love him, surely he is the happiest person, but i am sure he will not the happiest person all the time, so he also can't be the standard! so what can be the standard for unit o
