Before I Die

four different things i have to do
before i vanish, from the earth without a clue
they will murmur while taking me to my resting place
that i did what i promised to do or at least i did my best
hey you, just listen to my worries
i was a good boy who liked his mama,papa and school
there also was my all time sweetheart 
 they called her rose and she has angel eyes and lips like cherries
i loved her like a innocent lover 
but could not tell her 
someday after she moved to a new town
i stood there weeping and my head was down
i never heard or saw her again
as i am having little time left for me
my first thing to do is find and tell her my feelings soon.
i don't know what i am crying for
don't i believe  there is never an end
in my past i always running for money
i never cared for others 
and now i am suffering for that i am sure.
where are my near and dear ones as i am lying down here alone
where is my son and where is my sweet little girl tory
my second thing to do before i die is
call all of them and tell them sorry.
i loved my wife and she loved me too
she was like the most beautiful flower and i was the tree
we both climbed the success mountain
holding each others hand and promised we never would fall apart
but she died peacefully and set herself free
i was hurt like a wounded bird 
and never went to see her resting place
now i quietly counting the number of years since she was gone
and it is a long time of seven
third thing is to tell her , we will soon meet in heaven
 all of my life i never believed you
never prayed, i never went to your holy home 
 as i became a sad and lonely person
and as my bones became weak and my hairs grey
i understand true value of yours
and last thing i want to do is 
for once i will go to church and pray.

Is This a True Love

i don't know why i love you, but i do
i don't know why i cry so, but i do
i don't know why i dream of you, but i do
a thousand years passed by since yesterday
but i still remember you
like we met some minutes ago today,
every time i see that painting of lovely fountain
my eyes are always filled with tears
i don't know why, i don't know why.
as i walk through the street
remembering your sweet memories
with so much sorrows in my heart,
since i know you would never come back
sudden i heard your name
i felt my past comes to meet me
and i look back to see you again
i don't know why,i don't know why
someday we will be together again
may be in this life or in heaven
we will walk on the road paved with gold
and i will hold your beautiful hand again
i want to be with you forever
i wish i could share my feelings with you
without you i am very weary and alone
and my soul is wounded since the time you are gone
now i am like going mad
and every night in past three years
i have been going to your graveyard
i don't know why,i don't know why
i don't know why i love you but.........................

O' Captain, My Captain

.I REMEMBER 
ONCE I WAS YOUR BEST FRIEND
SINCE MY MEMORY
I HOPE IT WOULD NEVER END
I FELT SAFE WITH YOU
WHEN I WAS YOUNG
PROMISE TO YOU 
TO NEVER DO WRONG
                                   SITUATION
                                    DEPRESSION
                                    EMOTION
                                    INCARNATION
I AM STILL YOUR SON
BUT A MOTIVATED ONE
HOPE TO SWIM TO THE NEXT END OF RIVER
AND YES I SURELY CAN
I HAVE NOTHING TO PRIDE
BUT YOU ARE OUT OF JUDGEMENT
I WANT TO SEE YOU 
TILL MY LAST BREATHE
YOU ARE MY ALL 
MY STORY MY LEGEND AND MY MYTH
                                  ILLUSION
                                  HALLUCINATION
                                  REINCARNATION
                                  SOLUTION
I AM ALWAYS PROUD OF YOU
NEVER BLAMED YOU
FOR WHAT I DID
I AM STILL A CHILD
AND WILL MAKE A GOOD KID
I AM A THIRSTY TIGER
LOOKING FOR WATER OF HOPE
STANDING ON THE WALL 
WAITING FOR MY TURN TO JUMP


I HAVE NEVER EXPECTED A RIPE FRUIT
NEVER EXPECTED A GOLDEN DREAM TO COME
I JUST WANT TO WALK
IN THE PARK WITH YOU
JUST THE SAME WAY WE DID 
IN MY CHILDHOOD 
O' CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN 
JUST WAIT FOR MORE TIME
WE WILL BE TOGETHER
ITS TRUE
ITS TRUE 
            OH MY FATHER
             OH MY FATHER

To Whom May It Concern

a boy is boating on the yellow river 
singing songs and praising the nature 
singing loudly and thanking the creator 
woods are there beside the river 
the boy must be human race and woods, rivers are all nature 
the still water is not still now 
a seven headed snake 
is chasing underneath the water 
the body was dark and seven heads symbolize seven sins that are devils graces 
oh the boy is unware the snake 
like we and our fate 
wake up o' little soldier,u have to win 
against darkest nature

So Lonely Lonely

SO LONELY LONELY THIS TOWN
AS I AM WALKING THROUGH THE STREET
SO MANY FACES AROUND
BUT I DON'T KNOW WHOM TO MEET

SO LONELY LONELY THIS PLACE
WHERE I SLEEP AND DWELL
SOMETIMES I TURN AS MUTE
PLEASE DON'T SPEAK TO ME,I AM NOT WELL

SO LONELY LONELY MY DREAMS ARE
NO ANGELS,NO SWEET THINGS
BUT I KNOW HOW TO FACE DARK
AND I REALLY DON'T CARE

SO LONELY LONELY THIS NIGHT IS
AS I AM ONLY ONE TO RULE THE EARTH
WITH NO ONE ALIVE AND
I HAVE ONLY A SWORD IN MY HAND

STILL I BELIEVE DARKNESS ALWAYS HAS A BEAUTY
AND I CAN FIND THE FOUNTAIN
NO MATTER HOW DEEP 
I AM IN THE DESERT
SINCE I AM UNSELFISH AND PURE OF HEART

Eyes of a Soldier

born to a wealthy life
i had my own living to choose
i could have been a doctor or a lawyer
or may be a engineer too
but i became a soldier
as i wanted to serve my country
and for me this is the best i could do.
i joined army when i was eighteen
i was very  happy and ambitious too
my dream came true and i trained hard
after some years they send us to a mysterious land
some days passed by, nothing wrong happened
then came this night, when i was lying on bed
thinking about sweet memories of my girlfriend
then i heard screaming all around
i ran to the outside to know what went wrong
there were only screaming, bullet and bombing sounds
some where captain smith shouted
fight,fight,be strong,be strong
then i understood we were under attack
they were rebels of that place we called mysterious land
i went inside and collected my gun
then i rushed outside and saw my friend ron
who was lying on sand and a bullet in his forehead
i stopped for a while and run to the stone shed
a wave of fear run through my body
then came anger and i was ready to fight
i saw some gunmen running towards me
i set my gun point at them and sitting over my knee
took a deep breath and pulled the trigger
killed two men and  stopped firing
still i heard yelling of captain smith
i looked around me and dead bodies were lying all over sand
some of them i talked to before this fight on mysterious land
they all had families,friends and home
but they wont see their sweet smile no more
then a bullet came and struck in my chest
a tear drop popped out of my eye as i was thinking of my sweet heart 
and i was believing this is my final rest.
i opened my eyes and saw my friends and captain smith too
i heard captain smith saying we won the battle test
what ron did wrong, why did he die
why big mike did not came,
from battle field or why did i became lame.
all this i am asking myself while sitting on my wheel chair
i am in my home and there is no more sweet air
some soldiers love to kill but i do not.
be ready if you want to be a soldier
since you may lose a lot
this is not my heart or mind is speaking
these are memories of eyes of a soldier

Head Trip

Money name fame 
take it all 
and buy me peace 
save me from my fall 
I ran on easy street 
like a deranged man 
but when i looked back 
chilling winter wind palpitated my heart 
Some are born with silver spoon 
i arrived with a wounded fate 
and i ride success hill by a crazy train 
but this eclat will fade to black 
Sometimes i fall in love 
but everytime i endure pain 
yet i want to burn in this sweet flame 
like a sapless man in the rain. 
People love me, people hate me 
i do not care much 
once fell from you 
oh' tree , fruit is not yours. 
Where do i go now 
i have house but not a home 
my dream castle is falling 
and affinities are burning to coal 
Now i am sitting here 
with corrupt heart and rusted mind 
dark lord is devouring my soul 
i do not wish to live anymore. 
This worriment is not only mine 
masses are suffering 
dwelling in the land of commotion 
waiting for cessation, asking the solution. 
                           The answer is 
Life is beautiful, ocean is more blue 
trees are greener and beauties are true 
love is so real, so is harmony and peace 
you can feel it if heart is open and vision is not blur.

Deer and Tiger

oh god help me please 
a four footed beast 
is chasing me 
it has killing paws and eyes 
i am running,my legs are becoming weak 
my eyes are full of tears,my mind is ful of fears 
what r my sins,my sins 
oh god please help 
i have to hunt,i am in 
hunger for days 
dont know fault of the angel 
running infront of my eyes with emotion 
but,i have to hunt u told before my creation 
the angels throat in the beasts mouth,she has no clue 
oh god,oh god u r brutal too

Horse

a horse came to me 
he was singing a song well 
and laughing to the hell 
must be crazy, must be mad 
but deep inside he was very sad 
he had no place to live 
he had no place to dwell 
his sweet heart was gone 
and his life was spoiled. 
his colour was shiny white 
and had darkest eyes 
he was free to roam and eat 
but could not find 
a place under greedy and selfish skies 
he came to me  
to tell his sorrows 
but i could not help 
i was sad too 
then we both sing a song well well 
and we both laughed to the hell

Tell Her Through This Letter

so you all are here 
to judge my fate 
i am standing here alone 
and all nice people are keeping silence 
           i am now about to weep 
           but i wont cry 
           give me six or give me ten 
           but without convincing her i wont die 
as i see her face in the court yard 
now my childish acts are gone 
and i wept hard 
 i wont able to be with her ever 
oh, those were beautiful days of my past 
                         oh my light of life 
                          you will always remain in my mind 
                          what if i wont kiss you all time 
                          but i shall hold your hand in my dreams at night 
just give me one promise o' my sweet angel 
never come back to see me in my cell 
i shall live longer having you in my dream 
and you always remain immortal in our sweet tale
