One day I wrote her name upon the strand


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

One day I wrote her name upon the strand,
But came the waves and washed it away:
Again I wrote it with a second hand,
But came the tide, and made my pains his prey.
Vain man, said she, that dost in vain assay
A mortal thing so to immortalize!
For I myself shall like to this decay,
And eek my name be wiped out likewise.
Not so (quoth I), let baser things devise
To die in dust, but you shall live by fame:
My verse your virtues rare shall eternize,
And in the heavens write your glorious name;
Where, whenas death shall all the world subdue,
Our love shall live, and later life renew.

-Edmund Spenser

My Weakness

Until I met you my heart stood still

Like the moon and the sun

Their love is true

Welcome 2015

Sabke Dilon main ho
sabke liye Pyar,
Aanewala har din laaye
Khushiyon ka Tyohar

LOGO KE PAAS PAISA BAHUT HAI

Saleeke se nahi chalati Zindagi, aajkal daud bahut hai…

Aise hi nahi milati manjil

TERI RAAHON MEIN

Koi Punjab se, koi Maharashtra se

Koi U. P. se hai, koi Bengal se

Koi Punjab se,

KHUD KO HEE DHOONDTA HUN

Tere kareeb aur tujhse door hone ke baad,

Jaha jaha sath chale wo raaste dhoondti hu

Your heart was pure and kind;

Your smile was

The Heart Of Friendship

The bond of friendship is everlasting

True friends never say good-bye

You Are The Life To Me

When I am hurt

And broken apart,

When I have no purpose in life,

You tell

pata hi na chala

एक जमाना जब दोस्तों के साथ,

खूब हंस
