I got bills, mard kay alag hotay qaiday

agar kamatay nahin to mard ho tum kaye kay

toofan laakhon chupay hain

aankhain barasti nahin

kuch bhi kaho

hansti nahin

barasti nahin

us kay bina

hansti nahin

barasti nahin

maana kay mushkil hain raahain

saathi bhi koi nahin

chalna to hay

rukna kahin

mumkin nahin

meray dil tu hay musafir

zindagi ek safar hay

kia janoon teri manzil

hay kahaan

We'd gather around
All in a room
Fasten our belts
Engage in dialogue
We'd all slow down
Rest without guilt
Not lie without fear
Disagree sans judgement

We would stay and respond
And expand and include and allow and forgive
And enjoy and evolve and discern
And inquire and accept and admit
And divulge and open and reach out and speak up

We'd open our arms
We'd all jump in
We'd all coast down into safety nets

We would share and listen and support and welcome
Be propelled by passion, not invest in outcomes
We would breathe and be charmed and amused by difference
Be gentle and make room for every emotion

We'd provide forums
We'd all speak out
We'd all be heard
We'd all feel seen

We'd rise post-obstacle, more defined, more grateful
We would heal, be humbled and be unstoppable
We'd hold close and let go and know when to do which
We'd release and disarm and stand up and feel safe

This is utopia!
This is my utopia!
This is my ideal, my end in sight.
This is my nirvana, my ultimate!

Hold me
Like the River Jordan
And I will then say to thee
You are my friend

Carry me
Like you are my brother
Love me like a mother
Will you be there?

When weary
Tell me will you hold me
When wrong, will you scold me?
When lost will you find me?

But they told me
A man should be faithful
And walk when not able
And fight till the end
But I'm only human

Everyone's taking control of me
Seems that the world's got a role for me
I'm so confused will you show to me
You'll be there for me
And care enough to bear me

jahan manzil hay meri
kabhi to woh duniya daikhoon ga
mujhay kaisay hay jeena, daikhoon ga

kabhi daikhon ga ja kay
chura kay main peecha kaamon say
kabhi niklon ga, subh-o-shaamon say

meri yaad main tum
na aansoo bahana
na jee ko jalana
mujhay bhool jana

samajhna keh tha
aik sapna suhana
woh guzra zamana
mujhay bhool jana

juda teri mazil
juda meri rahain
milengi na ab
teri meri nigahain

mujhay teri dunya say
hay duur jana
na jee ko jalana
mujhay bhool jana

yeh ro ro keh kehta hay
toota howa dil
nahin hoon main teri
mohabbat ke qabil

mera nam tak apnay
lub peh na lana
na jee ko jalana
mujhay bhool jana

Gar mujhay is ka yaqeen ho 
meray humdum, meray dost


Gar mujhay is ka yaqeen ho 
kay teray dil ki thakan
Teri aankhon ki udaasi, 
teray seenay ki jalan
Meri diljoi, 
meray piyar say mit jaye gi


Gar mera harf-e-tasalli 
woh dawa ho jis say
Ji uthay phir tera ujra hua benoor dimagh
Teri peshaani say dhul jayain 
yeh tazleel kay daagh
Teri beemar jawani ko shifa hojaye


Gar mujhay is ka yaqeen ho 
meray humdum, meray dost
Roaz-o-shab, 
shaam-o-sehar 
main tujhay behlata rahun


Main tujhay geet sunata rahun 
halkay, sheereen
Aabshaaron kay,
baharon kay,
chaman zaaron kay geet
Aamad-e-subh kay,
mehtaab kay,
sayyiaron kay geet


Tujh say main husn-o-mohabbat ki hikayaat kahun...

Kesay maghroor haseenaon kay barfaab say jism
Garm haathon ki hararat mai pighal jatay hain


Kesay aik chehray kay thehray hue maanoos nuqoosh
Dekhtay dekhtay yaklakht badal jatay hain


Kis tarah aariz-e-mehboob ka shaffaf bilour
Yak bayak baada-e-ehmar say dehak jata hai


Kesay gulcheen kay liye jhukti hai khud shaakh-e-gulab
Kis tarah raat ka aiwaan mehak jata hai


Yunhi gata rahun, gata rahun teri khaatir
Geet bunta rahun, betha rahun teri khatir


Per meray geet teray dukh ka mudaawa hi nahi
Naghma jarraah nahi, monis-o-ghamkhuwaar sahi


Geet nashtar to nahi, marham-e-azaar sahi
Teray azaar ka chaara nahi, nashtar kay siwa


Aur yeh saffak maseeha meray qabzay mai nahi
Is jahaan kay kisi zirooh kay qabzay mai nahi
Haan magar teray siwa, 
teray siwa,
teray siwa!

I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I have said too much
Been too unkind

I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try and laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry

I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness
Plead with you
But I know that it's too late
And now there's nothing I can do

So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry

I would tell you
That I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
That you've already
Gone away

Misjudged your limit
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more

Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Because boys don't cry

You always hurt the one you love
The one you shouldn't hurt at all
You always take the sweetest rose
And crush it till the petals fall
You always break the kindest heart
With a hasty word you can't recall
So If I broke your heart last night
It's because I love you most of all

mera rasta tak tak kay
jab ankhain thak jayain
hathon ki lakeeron ko
mehendi say chupa laina

jub chandi raaton main
meri yaadon kay phool khilain
tum soni kalaiyon ko
gajron say saja laina

duniya say chupa laina
jub mera zikr chiray
nazron ko jhuka laina

What would I do without your smart mouth
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright

My head's underwater
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections

Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing in my head for you

My head's underwater
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections

Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

Cards on the table, we're both showing hearts
Risking it all though it's hard

Cause all of me
Loves all of you

who's gonna tell you when it's too late?
who's gonna tell you things aren't so great?
who's gonna drive you home tonight?
who's gonna pick you up when you fall?
who's gonna hang it up when you call?
who's gonna pay attention to your dreams?
who's gonna plug their ears when you scream?
who's gonna hold you down when you shake?
who's gonna come around when you break ?

you can't go on thinking nothing's wrong!

I'll give you countless amounts of outright acceptance if you want it.
I will give you encouragement to choose the path that you want if you need it.
You can speak of anger and doubts, your fears and freak outs, and I'll hold it.
You can share your so-called shame filled accounts of times in your life, and I won't judge it.

 And there are no strings attached to it.

 You can ask for space for yourself and only yourself, and I'll grant it.
 You can ask for freedom as well, or time to travel, and you'll have it.
 You can ask to live by yourself, or love someone else, and I'll support it.
 You can ask for anything you want, anything at all, and I'll understand it.

 And there are no strings attached to it. 

This is the only kind of love, as I understand it, that there really is.

 You can express your deepest of truths even if it means I'll lose you, and I'll hear it.
 You can fall into the abyss on your way to your bliss, I'll empathize with.
 You can say that you have to skip town to chase your passion, and I'll hear it.
 You can even hit rock bottom, have a mid-life crisis, and I'll hold it.

And there are no strings attached to it.

 You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give.
 You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have.
 I give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilege.
 And you owe me nothing in return.

Hum ghoom chukay basti bun main
Ik aas ki phaans liyay mun main
Koi sajan ho koi piyara ho
Koi deepak ho koi tara ho
Jab jeevan raat andhairee ho
aik baar kaho tum meri ho

Jab sawan badal chaaye hoon
Jab phagan phool khilaaye hoon
Jab chanda roop lutata ho
Jab sooraj dhoop nahata ho
Ya shaam nay bastee ghairee ho
Aik baar kaho tum meri ho

Haan dil ka daman phaila hai
Kiyun goree ka dil maila hai
Hum kab tak peet kay dhokay main
Tum kab tak door jharokay main
Kab deed say dil ko sairee ho
Aik baar kaho tum meri ho

Kiya jhagra sood khasaray ka
Yeh kaaj naheen banjaray ka
Sab sona ropa lay jaaye
Sab duniya, duniya lay jaaye
Tum aik mujhay buhtairee ho
Aik baar kaho tum meri ho

Today I don't feel like doing anything.
I just wanna lay in my bed.
Don't feel like picking up my phone
So leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything

I'm gonna kick my feet up
Then stare at the fan
Turn the TV on, throw my hand down my pants
Nobody's gonna tell me I can't

I'll be lounging on the couch,
Just chillin' in my snuggie
Click to MTV, so they can teach me how to dougie
'Cause in my castle I'm the freaking man

Tomorrow I'll wake up, do some P90X
Meet a really nice girl, have some really nice sex
And she's gonna scream out: 'This is Great'
(Oh my god, this is great)

I might mess around, get my college degree
I bet my old man will be so proud of me
But sorry pops, you'll just have to wait

No, I ain't gonna comb my hair
'Cause I ain't going anywhere
I'll just strut in my birthday suit
And let everything hang loose

Kash Hum Tum Bhi Ajnabi Hote
Jis Tarah Or Log Hote Hain

Be-Taaruf Se
La-Taaluq Se

Na Tasaadum Na Bandishain Hoti
Dil Main Chahat Na Khwahishain Hoti

Na Wafaon Ke Silsile Hote
Na Mohabbat Ke Fasle Hote

Phir Na Hoti Shikayatain Tum Se
Youn Na Milti Aziatain Tum Se

Be-Qarari Na Be-Kali Hoti
Youn Shikista Na Zindagi Hoti

Choor Hota Na Aina Dil Ka
Koi Lamha Na Hota Mushkil Ka

Hum Na Milte Teri Nigaon Se
Na Youn Do Char Hote Aahon Se

Kar Ke Tujh Se Wafa Mila Kya Hai?
Too Ne Ghum K Siwa Dia Kya Hai?

Mujh Ko Un Lamhon Ki Yaad Jo Ayee Hai
Mar Dala Teri Judayee Nai

i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
i am never without it
anywhere i go, you go my dear
and whatever is done by only me
is your doing, my darling

i fear no fate
for you are my fate, my sweet
i want no world
for beautiful you are my world, my true
and it's you whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
here is the root of the root
and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky
of a tree called life;
which grows higher than the soul can hope
or mind can hide
this is the wonder
that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart
i carry it in my heart

You can be an asshole of the grandest kind
You can withhold like it's going out of style
You can be the moodiest baby and I've never met anyone
who is as negative as you are sometimes

You are the wisest woman I've ever met.
You are the kindest soul with whom I've connected.
You have the bravest heart that I've ever seen
And I've never met anyone
Who's as positive as you are sometimes.

I see everything, I see every part
I see all your light and I love your dark
I dig everything of which you're ashamed
There's not anything to which I can't relate
And I'm still here

You blame everyone else, not your own partaking
Your passive-aggressiveness can be devastating
You're terrified and mistrusting
And I've never met anyone as,
As closed down as you are sometimes.

I see everything, I see every part
I see all your light and I love your dark
I dig everything of which you're ashamed
There's not anything to which I can't relate
And I'm still here

What you resist, persists, and speaks louder than you know
What you resist, I love, no matter how low or high you go

You're the funniest woman that I've ever known.
You're the dullest woman that I've ever known.
You're the most gorgeous woman that I've ever known
And I've never met anyone as, as everything as you are sometimes.

Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be
you're not here with me
You never said goodbye
someone tell me why
Did you have to go
and leave my world so cold?

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says

That you are not alone
for I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
and hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
then forever can begin

now that shes back in the atmosphere with drops of Jupiter in her hair, she acts like summer and walks like rain, reminds me that there a time to change. Since the return from her stay on the moon she listens like spring and talks like June.

So tell me, did u sail across the sun? Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded, and haven is overrated? Tell me, did u fall for a shooting star, one without a permanent scar? And there you missed me while you were looking for yourself out there?

now that she is back from that soul vacation tracing her way through the constellation, she checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo reminds me that there is a room to grow. Now that she is back in the atmosphere I'm afraid that she might think of me as "plain ol' jane told a story about man who was too afraid to fly so he never did land"

But tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet? Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day, and head back to the milky way? Tell me, did Venus blow your mind? Was it everything you wanted to find? And girl did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep friend chicken, your best friend always sticking out for you, even when I know you are wrong? Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance, five-hour phone conversation, the best soy latte that you ever had, and me?

dard main bheegay lab muskara jaatay hain
beetay lamhay humain jub bhi yaad aatay hain

chand lamhaat kay wastay hi sahi
muskara ker mili thi mujhay zindagi
teri aaghosh main din they meray katay
teri baanhon thi meri ratain kati

aaj bhi jub woh pal mujh ko yaad aatay hain
dil say saaray ghamon ko bhula jaatay hain

meray kandahay pay sir ko jhukana tera
meeray seenay main khud ko chupana tera
aakay meri panahon main shaam o sahar
kaanch ki tarah woh toot jana tera

aaj bhi jub woh manzar nazar aatay hain
dil ki weeranion ko mita jatay hain

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

If it weren't for your maturity none of this would have happened
If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself
If it weren't for my attention you wouldn't have been successful and
If it weren't for me you would never have amounted to very much

Ooh this could be messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this

You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me
You're kind of my protege and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me
I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian
I know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it

Ooh this could get messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
I've more than honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this

What part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept?
What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
What with this distance it seems so obvious?

Just make sure you don't tell on me especially to members of your family
We best keep this to ourselves and not tell any members of our inner posse
I wish I could tell the world cuz you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly
I might want to marry you one day if you watch that weight and keep your firm body

Ooh this could be messy and
Ooh I don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

There are children standing here.
Arms outstretched into the sky.
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.

Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he's been here.

And I see
no bravery,
No bravery,
in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.

Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.

Old men kneel and accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.

We were out on a date
in my daddy's car
we hadn't driven very far.
there in the road
straight ahead,
a car was stalled,
the engine was dead.

I couldnt stop,
so I swerved to the right.
I'll never forget
the sound that night.
the screamin' tires,
the bustin' glass,
the painful scream
that I heard last.

When I woke up
the rain was pourin' down.
There were people
standin' all around.
Something warm flowing
through my eyes,
but somehow I found
my baby that night.
I lifted her head,
she looked at me
and said,
hold me darling,
just a little while.
I held her close,
I kissed her our last kiss.
I found the love
that I knew I had missed.

Well now she's gone.
even though I hold her tight.
I lost my love,
my life,
that night.

Oh where, oh where, can my baby be?
the lord took her away from me.
She's gone to heaven,
so I've got to be good.
so I can see my baby
when I leave this world.

I just remembered that time at the market
snuck up behind me and jumped on my shopping cart
and rode down
aisle 5
you looked behind you smile back at me
crashed into a rack full of magazines
they asked us
if we could leave...

can't remember...
what went wrong last September
though i'm sure you'd remind me
if you had to

Our love was
comfortable and
so broken in

I sleep with this new girl i'm still getting used to
my friends all approve
say 'shes gonna be good for you'
they throw me
high fives

She says the bible is all that she reads
and prefers that I not use profanity
your mouth was
so dirty

Life of the party
and she swears that she's artsy
but you could distinguish
Miles from Coltrane

Our love was
comfortable and
so broken in

she's perfect
so flawless
or so they say

She thinks I can't see the smile that shes faking
and poses for pictures that aren't being taken
I loved you
grey sweat pants
no makeup
so perfect

Our love was
comfortable and
so broken in

she's perfect
so flawless
I'm not impressed

I want you back

saye main us kay barson ka jaga
main so jaon
us ki sajti sanwarti dhanak main
main ghar banaon
apnay ghar main kayi chaand taray utaaron sajaon
khushbuon say bharay raston main kho jaon

rung us kay baarish main dhul kay hain khiltay
aur nikhartay
roop us kay zameenon kay chehron say miltay
aur damaktay
us kay andaaz jaisay hain mosam
aatay jaatay
us kay sub rung hanstay hanstay
jagmagaatay

kehtay hain keh shadi ki bunyaad sirif bay-inteha muhubbat honi chahiye, aur kuch nahin... kyonkeh agar bunyad ghalat ho to rishtay toot jatay hain...

The best part of my day is when I talk to her. Just hearing her sweet voice brightens up my day.

When she's upset, my world turns upside down. I loose the ability to think straight. It drives me crazy when she is behaving all cranky. I try really hard not to say anything bad, not to do anything to hurt her. I know I am not very good at it.

When I am close to her, that's heaven for me. I don't want anything else in the world when I am with her. That's when I wish I could stop the time. I know I tend to get out of control. I know I am not supposed to cross my boundaries. But the temptations are too strong. I just want to break all rules, go beyond all the limits, as if nothing is forbidden, there is no taboo. I just want to love her, and give her all that I have. And make her feel like a woman, though she might not be ready for that just as yet.

She, the meaning of my life, the source of my inspirations, when she says she loves me, my heart skips a beat. And then my heart starts beating really fast. I feel like the luckiest person in this whole wide world. I feel like climbing on top of a mountain and yelling, "Look, everyone, the most beautiful girl in this world loves me, she LOVES me, she loves ME!"

She is the best thing ever happened to me. Even if she makes me cry at times, I could spend a lifetime just resting on her lap, letting her caress my hair. And that's how I want my life to end, in her arms, without any worries, any care. And last thing I want to hear before dying is that she loves me.

Yes, I am crazy about her. I realized that long ago. And I have no regrets.

samay yunhi chalta hay
sama yun badalta hay
chupa chupa rehta hay meri yaadon main koi
din kay saray pehron main
shaam ki udaasi main
raat kay andheron main yaad aata hay koi

jhuki jhuki aankhon main
ruki ruki saanson main
kaisay jaanoon yaar piyar kay kaisay kaisay rang raag hain

lagta hay keh jaisay
koi aas hay koi pass hay
saya hay usi ka
ya keh mera hi ehsaas hay
dil kehta hay woh jo bhi hay
meri ankhon main ab aa basay
ab dil say milay us dil ki lay
aur sur say us ka sur milay

chahta hoon poochon
keh tu kon hay kia naam hay
khwabon main jo aati hay
mujh say tera kia kaam hay
teri aankon main jo raaz hain
meray dil nay us ko paa liya
tery honton pay nahin kyon aaya
woh geet jo main nay ga liya
