Aye naye saal bata tujh mein naya kya hai..? Tu naya hai tu dikha subah nayi,shaam nayi, Warna in aankhon ne dekhen  hain saal kayi.. Har taraf khalq ne kyun shor mcha rakha hai, Roshni din ki wohi, Taron bahri raat wohi, Aaj hum ko nazar aati hai baat wohi, Aasman badla hai na badli ye afsurda zameen, Ek hindse ka badalna koi jiddat toh nahi, Pichle barson ki tarha hon ge qareene tere, kise maloom nhi 12 maheene tere, Be sabab dete hain kiyun log mubarak badein, Sub kya bhool gaye waqt ki karrwi yadein, Tu naya hai tu dikha subah nayi,shaam nayi, Warna in aankhon ne dekhen  hain saal kayi.. Happy New Year 2K18... Thank You.

At a restaurant, a cockroach suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky. The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but ...it landed on another lady in the group. Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt. When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant. Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, the antenna of my mind picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their histrionic behavior? If so, th...

Door tu chahe hai mujhse, Dhadknon ke pass hai magar, Zindagi ruthe na khud se, Sath mil jaye tera agar, Khali rahon par main bhatkun, Raston ki na hai koi khabar, Intzaar main krta hun tera, Mil jaye mujhko mera manzar, Tanha na tha pehle main kabhi, Ab nhi mera koi nagar, Ankahi kuch dastaan bhi thi, Dar se mere har pal rahe guzar, Maa tujhe kiese batlaun main, Bahri mehfeel ki reet hai kya, Hath tera ser par chahun main, Jo bhi tha sab kuch hai kho gya, Hai khuda ab mila de maa se tu, Mamta ki lori se sehal jane de, Door kyun rishte kraye tu, Maa ki godi mein hi maar jaane de, I love you mom.

सुबह सुबह निकले जो घर से, सोच में दिन का हाल क्या होगा, काम भी होगा या होगा सनाटा, तलाश में ख़ुशी की खुद को रोका, वक्त संभाले न संभले जिससे, ये आम आदमी है कभी जिसका ज़िकर न होता  कभी है चिंता घर परिवार की, कभी है चिंता बदलते संसार की, अमृत समझ हर ज़हर है पीता, दौलत के भूखे रिवाज़ों मैं जीता, दुश्मन को दोस्त समझ के चल दे, ये आम आदमी है कभी जिसका ज़िकर न होता खिलौना है जिस सरकार के वास्ते, मुश्किल हैं मुर्दा परस्तों के रस्ते, हक़्क़ न कोई उसके अभिमान का होता, सब कुछ सेहन कर अकेले में रोता, मौत की कीमत न जाने कोई इसकी,  ये आम आदमी है कभी जिसका ज़िकर न होता  क़रीब से देखा ज़िन्दगी को जिसने, अजीब हैं तमाम ये चेहरे कितने, सरे ख्वाब जो उसके शबाब जो उसके, मिट चले फिर आदम से, सवालों के न जवाब हैं जिसके, ये आम आदमी है कभी जिसका ज़िकर न होता  धन्यवाद गौरव सचदेवा

I've learned- that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them. I've learned- that no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back. I've learned- that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it. I've learned- that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that. I've learned- that it's not what you have in your life but you have in your life that counts. I've learned- that you should never ruin  an apology with an excuse. I've learned- that you can get charm for about fifteen minutes. After that, you'd better know something. I've learned- that you shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can do. I've learned- that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life. I've learned- that it's taking me a lo...

ख्वाब हैं ऊँचे, सोच है ऊँची, छुपा के सब से रखता हूँ मैं गुमनाम हूँ थोड़ा, मेहमान हूँ तेरा, ये बोल खुदा से कहता हूँ मैं वक़त है ऐसा, बदलता है पैसा, खुद को ज़मीन पे रखता हूँ मैं जो रेह्ते करीब, हैं दिल के गरीब, झूठ को सच समझता हूँ मैं नादान हूँ थोड़ा,बचपन से जुड़ा, वफ़ा की उम्मीद रखता हूँ मैं खिलोनो की बस्ती, मौत है सस्ती, प्यार नाम के खेल से डरता हूँ मैं दुनिया का व्यापार, है जिस्म का बाजार, इस मंज़र से रोज़ गुजरता हूँ मैं मोहब्बत है ऐसी,काँटों के जैसी' निगाहों की उलझन से बचता हूँ मैं लौटा हर बार,साहिल के पार, खुद की वीरानी सुनता हूँ मैं वेह्शत में बहता, आरज़ू है लेकिन, मुश्किलों को शाद से सहता हूँ मैं धन्यवाद गौरव सचदेवा

Angan main Khili ikk nanhi si kali, Jiske aate e Sabko Khushi hai milli.. anchal main chuppi thi hassi jo meri, muskurane lagi hai umeeden meri.. Seene se laga ke rakhun,duniya se bacha ke rakhun.. nazren lag na jayen, iss jahan ki buri.. Sanson ke chalne ka ab ehsaas hai, zindagi jeene pe pura vishvas hai.. Angan main Khili ikk nanhi si kali, Jiske aate e Sabko Khushi hai milli.. Labon se naam tera har pal gungunati rahun, murat ko main teri mujh main hi smati rahun.. batain main teri geeton jiese sunu, goad main sehla lakhon khwab bunu.. Khele sath main mein bhi bachi ban jaun, Teri gudiya sang balon ko tere main sehlaun.. Kuch na hoga tujhe ye hai wada mera, jab tak zinda hun main badal na irada mera..

Every Sunday morning I take a light jog around a park near my home.  There’s a lake located in one corner of the park.  Each time I jog by this lake, I see the same elderly woman sitting at the water’s edge with a small metal cage sitting beside her. This past Sunday my curiosity got the best of me, so I stopped jogging and walked over to her.  As I got closer, I realized that the metal cage was in fact a small trap.  There were three turtles, unharmed, slowly walking around the base of the trap.  She had a fourth turtle in her lap that she was carefully scrubbing with a spongy brush. “Hello,” I said.  “I see you here every Sunday morning.  If you don’t mind my nosiness, I’d love to know what you’re doing with these turtles.” She smiled.  “I’m cleaning off their shells,” she replied.  “Anything on a turtle’s shell, like algae or scum, reduces the turtle’s ability to absorb heat and impedes its ability to swim.  It can als...

Dukh toh tab hota hai, Jab koi apna sans khota hai... Duniya main har pal voh hota hai, Jo soch kr mann khud-b-khud rota hai... Aas rakhi hai zindagi main jeene ki, Fir adat kyun bane bandagi se ansu peene ki... Kyun dil ki awaz zuban tak aa nhi pati, Sab kuch paa ke bhi unhe bhula nhi pati... Tasveer ke samne ruk batein bs tujhise karun, Lamhon ko bhula kar roz khud hi se ladun... Na jaane vo sukun vo rehmat chippi hai kahan, Voh bhi kya din the meri jannat thi jab yahan... Lakhon vade tod ke chod chla hai kyun mujhe, Khwab toh dil main hain bda stayenge tujhe... Ye dard bhra kissa hai suna nhi skta, Dil main roz behte hain moti jo baha nhi sakta... Thank you Er.
