Pain Expressed In Few Lines....

-

At times, you are asked to tell about someone and when you start talking, some times, smiles come over your face and some times, tears fill up your eyes. There can be millions of reasons for both but most of the time people who listen, don't bother about both. These following lines explain the pain of that guy who is asked to talk about some thing and he starts talking about his beloved, doing which , his eyes gets filled with tears. Just a few who know the reason, understand the reason of those tears and keep quite but rest just applauds and leave. No one comes to you when you are crying, people are ready to share just your smiles , this is a sad but true fact and this applies to even those, whom you always thought would do share it! Have a read of these lines. These are in Punjabi. I shall explain their meaning in English in a while,

Mehfil laggi c yaaran di,
Ohna mainu v maan naal bulaya c!
Na janda tan v tan kiven,
Vasta tera jo paya c!

Jadon keha gaya kujh bolan layi,
Tan tera hi cheta aya c!
Fir jod jod k akhar main,
Is dil dal haal sunaya c!

Hanjhu teri yaad wale,
Na na karde v nikal gaye!
Kujh samajh gaye te khamosh rahe,
Te baaki wah-wah karde nikal gaye!

And here is the meaning of it in English,

It was a gathering of all of my friends,
They invited me as well to come there!
How could I refuse and would not had gone,
When they gave me swear of your name!

When asked to speak about something,
I just could recall you only!
Somehow, after joining some lines,
I tried to speak my heart out!

Tears of your memory, despite of my best efforts,
Did come out from these eyes on their own!
Few who did understand the reason of those tears, kept quite,
Rest left after just clapping!

Tears are the most unfaithful friend of ours. Friend, because they never leave us, neither in good nor in bad times. They are always there with us, making sure that we are never alone. Unfaithful, they never listen and come even when we tell them not to come! Isn't it?

A Poetic MasterPiece By Faraz.....

-
I am a big fan of good poetry. I am not a poet myself  but where ever I do find anything good written, I try to collect and share it. Surely enough, my first preference would always be Punjabi poetry. But there is no such thing that I wont read from any where else. Whatever is good, I try to make sure that I don't miss it! There are some poets which have created history with their writings. Late Ahmed Faraz is among those handful which wrote timeless pieces from his pen. Saying anything about him would like showing torch to the sun. So without wasting any more time, I would like to share a poetic masterpiece from him which I read today only and instantly fell in love with it. This is in Hindi and I shall translate it English in a while. Please note, this does has lots of words from Urdu as well.I shall put the meanings of those words in the end of both Hindi and English versions. First, in Hindi, Dost ban kar bhi nahin saath nibhane wala, Wohi andaaz hai jaalim ka jamane

Feelings Revealed Truly & Musically....

-
In music, out of the most pure forms of it, one is Qawalli . This is that form of music which is sung by the people who are not mere singers but devotees of God. This form of music was not a part of commercial music industry some time ago but due to its magic, its now very common to hear this in almost every where. Despite its used now in the commercial music industry, still the original form of it with minimum music instruments and claps of the singers while singing is the most popular one and remains untouchable. There are many singers who sing this form of music but some have made it a household name due to their singing. Late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan   is among those very few who singers who are known as the masters of this devine music form. Out of millions of Qawalli songs available, there are some which hit straight in the heart. There is one that I am listening from some time and thought to share with you all. This one was specially recommended to me by my friend Sumit who himsel

Hello From Singapore….

-
Yes, I am at Singapore . Its been a while since I have come to this office where I am sitting right now, Suntec Tower 4 . The last time when I came here was in 2006. That was the first time when I came overseas for delivering a training program and this time again, the reason is same. Its so good to be back here and meet few persons whom I had met long time back and who actually taught me the few of the first lessons about the tactics of delivering a sessions. The session which I am handling right now is a VERY tough one and I am trying my best to keep things running smoothly. Hope all remains and goes fine. Its time to go for lunch. Been very long that I have seen food courts here at Suntec . Hope will find something to eat :-) .
