One day I wrote her name upon the strand

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

Hum bhi mohabbat karte the

Jab tere shahar mein raha karte the,

Hum bhi chup chap jiya karte the,

Aankhon me

WO HUM SE RUTH GAY

Mere sapne kyon tut gaye,

Wo humse kyon ruth gaye,

Dekar shila mohabbat ka mujhe,

BAS THODI DER

बस थोड़ी सी देर के लिए तुम्हारा मुझसे �

TUM LOT KAR MAT JANA

तुम आओ तो

इस बार लौट कर मत जाना।
