Yeh Khaalipan

Jab Meri Bechaini Mit Jayegi
Jab Mere Dilko Sukoon Mil Jayega
Yeh Khaalipan Mit Jayega

Do Pal Ki Chandni Ke Liye
Aj Bhi Zinda Hoon Main
Meri Khaamoshi Ke Ageh Aasmaan Bhi Khatam Ho Jayega

Kehne Ke Liye Toh Roz Marta Hoon Main
Thoda Aur Marne Ke Liye
Yeh Deewana Kal Phir Ayega

Shab-E-Intezaar

Ghum-e-aarzoo dil se, kabhi to rukhsat hogi
Kabhi to sahar hoga, shab-e-intezaar guzaregi |

Palkon me jiske, simat ti ho ghataein
Saawan pe bhi uska hi, ikhtiyaar hoga |
Kab tak rahe viraan, dil-e-anjuman aakhir
Kabhi to bahar chupke se, is or bhi badhegi ||

Guzarte waqt ke saye, kuch bechainiyan hongi
Betaab dhadkano ko, mera intezaar hoga |
Kab tak khafaa rahegi, wo shokh nazar aakhir
Kabhi to dast-e-dil se, shabaa pyar ki uthegi  ||

Is umeed par chale, har sham meri sansein
Kal ke ujale shaayad, milne ki ghadi hogi |
Andhere me ghira main, sochta hoon ye har waqt
Hogi raat ye badi, ya meri umra badi hogi ||

Premium Member Cleansing of Body and Mind- the Indian Way- An Alouette

Cleansing of body and mind- the Indian Way- An Alouette



For any Hindu

Bathing in Sindhu

Or Ganga thought to be pure

On fetes, on deaths

Tilak on foreheads

To meditate for mind’s cure





Indian Brahmins

In temple domains

Recite mantras while bathing

Then a marjanam 

Followed by japam

Trikal Sandhya with chanting



============================

Sindhu and Ganga – the names of rivers of India

Marjanam means- Sprinking water around to purify the place.

Japam means - chanting of the Goddess Gayatri Mantras

Trikal Sandhya means- Tri means three times. Kal means time and Sandhya meaning 
controlling the breathe as we do in Yoga.

Sandhya means-  meaning “UNION” of day and night dawn and dusk, noon is considered 
the third juncture of the day, and hence meditations and prayers are performed daily three 
times.


**The Alouette was created by Jan Turner.

It consists of two or more stanzas of 6 lines each, with the following set rules:

Meter: 5, 5, 7, 5, 5, 7
Rhyme Scheme: a, a, b, c, c, b

The form is not available on PS


Zarra Zarra Maut

Meri shaksiyat pe gor karna,
Unsuljhi si lagegi
Mere beete kal pe gor karna,
Zindagi roothi si lagegi
Himmat ho tumme………..
To meri rooh dekh lena
Zarre zarre me maut ki,
Dastan dikhegi

      (Parth)

Maut

"Zindagi bhr ka bas itna sa fasana hay,
Aaj nhi to kal hamain bhi chale jaana hay,

Talkh zindagi ke samandar main beh kar,
Hamain akhir main kinare se lag jaana hay,

Ye jo sooraj hay, har roz nai zindagi jeeta hay,
Ise bhi har sham maghrib main dhal jaana hay,

Saansain jitni hay jee lo maze lekar,
Akhir main sab ki saanson ko thum jaana hay,

Sharqi sare mosam tujhe yaaad krte hain,
Teri tarah hume bhi ye jism chor jaana hay....!

Kal Raat Chandani Thi

Kal raat chandani thi,  mousam mein nami thi
halki si woh barsaat or barf jami thi
Per raas na aya azhar woh nazara
Mai tha, meri tanhaayi, bas teri kami thi


Mera Beeta Kal

Beete kal ke nishaan nirantar cheekha karte he 
Sher ki dhahad se mujhpe gurraya karte he 
Apne aane wale kal ko behtar karne me chala tha  
Mujhe kya pata tha ye jeevan ke baad bhi peecha karte he

Kal-Sa-Ri-Kan-Nit

Trapped in 
the wilderness.
I drink.

Windmill Cried

As I sit here, on a rectangular cake
Drawn and tied from Earth's oil, not fake

I wonder how to, in deuce, enunciate 
of the state, wherein, I participate

Past tense, was I; island dwelling to hide
The thing that tied; and bound the path to dive

Terrific honey, which sleep required
Flowed wild with purpose; and never lied

Stuck to the ground; with entertainment quite boring
A guitar hero accomplished; nihilism recurring

With goods hands, in a happy place
The scenery dull, time for a break

On they came, or I to them
For me, really?  Hesitation

They asked questions, quite leading, and when it was done
A train ride, to happy town, check in and tune down

The halls were quite clean, and the watchers quite ordered
The meals were on time, distracting and forward

Powders prescribed to keep time flowing even
Day and night cycle; Swiss bread repeating

As I arrived to despise the box I was in
The windows and doors that shuttered absent sin

And stuck as I was; with the ties to comply
My reply was a nod with a wink; and pity implied

Good fortune was kind to supply and find time
To use you and your keys to fly; surprise

The gears they did grind and mill for the bread
The water was lifted and carried far ahead

The story is now short, the sun breaks with news
Get out of bed, hair mend, speed spin, with trues

Superman

If I was Superman, I'd save the day/
Then come home to u, my sun ray/
You're the yellow sun that gives me my power/
In a desert, you would be the only flower/
A knack for being happy, always shining through/
I wanna give you everything, all that I can do/
I don't need to fly to feel sky high/
Cause you do that, you don't need to try/
I love you and yea I could probably be an alien/
Im probably that guy who'd propose in a stadium/
Everyone crushes my dreams, my fantasies get ripped on/
Feelin like the alien, blasted all the way from Krypton/
Dreaming the perfect dream, the most romantic night/
But reality is heartbreaking, the strongest kryptonite/
You're in love with Kal-El, but repulsed by Clark Kent/
An extraordinary ordinary man, who was god sent/

Have the Natural Tendency of a Benign Dictator

And yet Affleck’s Bruce Wayne is an arrogant bully whose disturbing sexual comments towards Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman mark him out as a man with a problematic moral compass. And did you swallow the bit where his realisation of a human connection with Superman (their mothers both share the Christian name Martha) saw Batman instantly switch from readying himself to kill Kal-El to heading off to save his opponent’s mum from certain death? And can we forgive him for nearly offing the greatest superhero in comics in time for a double whammy of Snyder-directed Justice League movies in 2017 and 2018?
Jeremy Irons: ‘I have the natural tendency of a benign dictator’

Jesse Eisenberg’s wacky weirdo Lex Luthor

Jesse Eisenberg’s Luthor is a bizarrely unhinged creature, fascinating to watch and with some splendid, operatic lines of dialogue. But what is the motivation for his hatred of Superman and apparent obsession with other superhumans? I’ve read suggestions that Luthor’s determination to kill off the man of steel stems from a sense of youthful victimhood at the hands of his overbearing father. But even that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Was Eisenberg hoping to achieve the kind of radical reinvention of a classic DC supervillain that saw Heath Ledger win a posthumous Oscar for his turn as the Joker? If so, he had Batman v Superman’s screenwriters as willing accomplices to the crime.

It now seems a big ask for Eisenluthor to become the DC Comics universe’s big, bad-guy puppet master. Yet the movie’s final scenes suggest that was the fast-crumbling plan.
'There’s a lot to be worried about': a comics geek's verdict on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
Ben Affleck is great and Wonder Woman nearly steals the show, but there’s plenty in Zack Snyder’s mash-up to make superfans fret. Including, film-maker’s Kryptonite!: very bad writing

Premium Member The Snake Charmer

A vagabond once in a colorful ‘kurta’ 
And a turban wound round his head
Came into my house, one afternoon
A snake charmer,
Carrying pretzel serpents
In a wicker basket, 
The slimy things coiled inside.

At our door step, he put down the cargo
Begging my mother to allow a show

Sitting on haunches, 
He removed the lid
Three serpents were huddled inside 
As soon as the cage was opened,
They unwound their folds and came out 
On the tiled floor, they crawled round
Slipping and slithering awkwardly
One was a cobra, long and tawny 
Soon it stood erect and opened its hood
Hissing kisses with its hungry tongue

The charmer gently blew on his horn
In the lulling music
The snake began to dance
My eyes bulged out in utter disbelief 
Bewitchingly drawn to that mesmerizing scene

It was at that time my father came
With fire in his eyes, he shouted at my mother
“How dare you allow this here!
Are you playing with imminent death?
Stop this nonsense and let the man, go”

All were stunned and my mother shrunk back
Putting the snakes back in his basket, 
The man was about to leave
My compassionate father didn’t forget
To give him a generous tip, feeling pity
For a man who was out with a risky job
To eke out a living, encountering death face to face

Still the memory lingers, raising fears

Superman's Other Achilles' Heel

Superman’s Other Achilles’ Heel

By Elton Camp

Truth, justice and the American way
Superman pursued every single day

Bullets bounced right off his chest
Everything that he did was the best

A locomotive was weaker than he
Steel he bent with hands, you see

Able to leap tall buildings at a bound
He was the strongest fellow around

Only time he got into a tight
Was in contact with kryptonite

At least that the way the story’s told
But all forgot that he would grow old

For now his hair has grown thin
He has developed a double chin

X-ray vision won’t work with glasses
His reflexes are now slow as molasses

Firm muscles have turned to jelly
And Kal-El now has a beer belly 

No matter how hard he may try
He’s now far too obese to fly

This little story may be hard to believe
An elderly Superman’s hard to conceive
