My first public appearance with the guitar...

With ma lovely EY choir... singing 'O come all ye faithful', 'Go tell it on the mountains' and 'Jingle bell rock'.

I wish I could do just more

Here is a poem composed by me. It talks about a feeling that solitude sparks in us and this poem narrates couple of things which I witness daily...

The morning sun calls the day,
The candid cold bites me to wake,
 I have a place to go,
Unwilling to follow again the daily routine,
But "Worship thy work" shall be my need,
Dozen of hours it lies ahead,
Again I whisper to myself today,
I wish I could do just more.




I walk by the road in mornings,
Few ducks having a splash in the gullies,
They toddle making the place around wet,
Freshness covers their opening wings,
Preparing to live another day,
This sight repose me a feeling,
And I just say to myself,
I wish I could do just more.

I see a small house, home to an old lady,
Assailable it lies beneath a tree,
Shadowed by its huge branches,
Open to the stray dogs and cats,
Always a gentle breeze exists around,
Passing by the place monotonously it pulls be back,
An innocent creature that hides in a shack.

Now the freshness is gone,
Loneliness do abide,
Shadows dim away bidding me goodbye,
Time that has gone by never lets you die,
Memories now ask me,
Dont you wish you could just do something more?

Laakh Duniya Kahe Tum Nahin Ho....

A song that bring tears to my eyes... beautiful yet painful words...

Laakh Duniya Kahe Tum Nahi Ho
(The world may say that you are not there)
Tum Yahin Ho Tum Yahin Ho
(You are here and here only)

Meri Harr Soch Mein
(In my every thought)
Meri Harr Baat Mein
(And in my every talk)
Mere Ehsaas Mein
(In my feelings)
Mere Jazbaat Mein
(And in my emotions)
Tum Hi Tum Ho
(You and only you are there)
Tum Har Kahin Ho
(You are everywhere)

Tumne Choda Hai Kab Saath Mera
(When you left my side)
Thaame Ho Aaj Bhi Haath Mera
(Even now, you are the one holding my hand)
Koi Manzil Koi Rehguzar Ho
(For every aim, every path)
Aaj Bhi Tum Mere Humsafar Ho
(Even to this day, you are my only companion)
Jaaun Chahe Jahaan Tum Vahi Ho
(Wherever I go, I find you)

Khushboo Banke Hawaon Mein Tum Ho
(You're there in the wind as a fragrance)
Rang Banke Fizaon Mein Tum Ho
(You are the colour of season)
Koi Gaaye Koi Saans Goonje
(In any song or any breath)
Sab Sureeli Sadaon Mein Tum Ho
(In every hum you are there)

Tumko Har Roop Mein Dil Hai Pehchanta
(My heart recognise every form you take)
Log Hai Bekhabar Par Hai Dil Jaanta
(People are unaware but my heart knows that)
Tu Mere Paas Ho Dilnasheen Ho
(You are with me, in my heart)

Tum yahin ho, tum yahin ho...
(You and only you are there)

Tune to play when your heart seems to sway

One of my all time favorites is "Dekho kaise phoolon..." by Strings which came out in the stores during the release of Spiderman 2. As we know this movie is not only about Spiderman's fight against evil Octavius but also highlights his emotional attachment with his love Mary Jane. A moment where he feels he is losing his love and this song emphasizes more on this only.
