What You Mean To Me

I don’t know from where you came,
I met for a second and knew your name.
Your touch was so mighty
That it changed my whole entity.
You lit a flame inside my heart-
Gave me the light when my life was dark.
But I don’t even remember your face
There is no memory with me to see the God’s grace,
I have a wish to see you again
To reach you I will do everything-
Anything that I can,
To feel that touch again
Is my every night’s dream-
You holding me tight
And dressed like a queen,
Your smile wipes all my pain,
Your glow makes me become sane
Your eyes show me a hope to survive,
Your words inspire me like a guide
Yet I can’t say what you mean to me
May be more than eyes one needs to see.

On Frey’s Birth Day

The Day Clouds shed first droplets,
The Day Sun warmed the sky,
The Day Rivers flowed in the rifts,
The Day Mountains rose up high.
The Day God made the valleys,
The Day God filled the seas,
The Day God made the fountains
The Day God grew the trees.
One Day He made the gardens,
One Day He made the souls,
One Day He made birds, fish and deer,
One Day He made us all.
All these Days may hold glory,
All these Days might shine in ray,
But none of these were as beautiful
As the Day was when you born, Frey.

Simple Act

I don’t know how long we can go
On what we sow
In the world we have made
On the foundations we have laid
One day when the world will end
Even the highest peak will break and bend
Nothing will remain in the last
Every thing we do will become past
But some thing will still prevail
Untouched by time’s hardest Gail
The simple act of taking some one’s care
Making them to smile, turning hopeless lives into fair
The life will never stop it will go on
Humanity may die, we will move on
But those souls will remain for the testament
Shining like the stars in the might firmament.
And will show the path to the lives that will rise
For centuries to come
Like a father who says to his child
Get up my dear –run, run, run.

I Will Cross The Oceans For You

I will cross the oceans for you
I will climb the mountains,
I will pound the hardest rock -
To crack out the fountains
I can stand in the desert warm
I can steer the ship in storm,
I can bring the stars on ground
I can break the night for dawn,
I can tear the rift apart
I will come to show you my heart.
I can see the truth in you eyes
I can see the stretch when you smile,
I can feel the warmth of you mouth
I can hear the bells when you laugh,
I can feel the touch of your lips
I can hear your sweet little sips,
I can feel the weight of your eyelids
I can play with all your dear kids,
I can understand the voice when you speak
I can share your moves at love’s peak.
I don’t know the difference we have
I don’t know the pains we gave,
I don’t know how we came together
I don’t know when we fight with each other,
I don’t know the things we need
I don’t know the prayers and deeds
I don’t know the rules of the world
I don’t know the spin of the earth.
All I know is how to love
All I know is where to touch,
All I know is how to care
All I know is you are my prayer,
All I know is how to sing
All I know is what to bring,
All I know is how to live
All I know is what to give
The love you give is all I need
To take care is promise we keep
You’re the only one I’ve ever loved
You’re the first one I have ever touched
I can’t leave you ever in my lifeAfter all you are my prettiest wife.

Till The Day I Die

A fear is growing inside my heart
There are lots of things to tear us apart,
It’s true that my pockets are empty
But my hands are strong and heart is wealthy,
I will never let you down I will never let go
I will be with you as colors in rainbow.
You are the prettiest one I have ever seen,
This is the best situation in which I have ever been.
It’s true we live in extreme ends of the world
But isn’t it enough we are on the same planet earth?
I will find you out where ever you are,
I will walk miles and miles if you are far,
I’ve got nothing to hide or to show
You are the light that makes me glow.
It’s true I am dreaming in the daylight
But its you who gave me this height
I will climb the mountains; I will sunder the rift apart
I promise, one day I will come to show you my heart.
I’ve never loved anyone before, nor will again
You will be the only one to share my joy and pain.
It’s true my memory of you is like mirage in sand
But I still remember the mighty touch of your hand.
I know love at first sight might be a big lie
I still love only one: you and will till the day I die.

If I Die

I had not seen much of love before,
She came in and I needed nothing more.
My drifting life had changed forever:
It began to become quite a bit better.
But that was not what I had thought
It was only a dream, which came to naught.
She never wishes to know me well,
Indifference is her favorite spell.
She gets all my letters, but replies only some,
She knows all my pain but addresses none.
I wish to make her happy but never succeed
She has better people around to fulfill her need.
I never realize my worth for her,
I feel that to her I am just a blur.
To write me back is just a chore,
All my letters do nothing but make her sore.
My gifts rest in her trash can,
Letters thrown on roof have turned tan.
Care, fret that keep me awake at night
Are often rewarded by her profound slight.
I know, despite all the love I give
Crazy things I do thoughts I live,
I know for sure that she won’t even cry,
If right at the moment I die.

I have needed you

A wrong isn’t always done by a wrong one
Nor a good one always do good
The faults one does
Doesn’t mean he was mean too
But how to tell and how to show
All that I feel inside my heart
And what to do to let you know
That to me your love is all
Though the time is hard and tests are tough
And it seems that everything is gone
I just don’t know how to give up
My hope and faith are still strong
I wait and will wait for you to return
And know you someday will
The day will be the brightest
The best of my whole life
It would be like a dream come true if I look at you
Standing by my side
Life doesn’t mean much to me
If you are not in it dear
What would we do of a dried stick
When flower is fallen away
You know not what you mean to me
Nor had I known for long
But now I know I needed you
Like words in a song

First Love

First time in my life I fell in love in real,
Though my memory of her face are not very clear,
Neither did we spend any time together,
Nor do I know how I got in love with her.
Friends often say it’s foolish to love you don’t even know;
How much do we know our children still to grow?
World is not just a materialistic stage to play;
It’s a beautiful garden of love, believe in what I say:
I felt that spiritual passion inside my heart,
But the space between us pinch me like a dart,
I am so helpless that I can’t even see her face
But now I have got a dream to see a track to trace.

Cry For Peace

If needed we must cry
But not with pain; cry for peace
If needed we must stand up
But not to fight; stand up to stop all the fights.
If needed we must raise our hands
But not to kill; raise them to let no one be killed
If needed we must make allies
But not to attack; make allies to let no one be attacked.

And the need of the time
Is to do this all,
For all of us are sons and daughters
Of our dear lord;
Together, we are a big family
And this place is our home,
We will not let you burn it
And call the doom.

No one can touch our brothers and sisters and friends
Thinking they are alone,
We are here to stand by their side
No one can throw on them a single stone.
You, the leaders, don’t have the right
To decide who should live and who should die
For you have worked little for peace
But ample for hatred, war, greed and futile pride.

Don’t do this, sir,
For you lead the world
There are deaths you have not seen
There are screams you have not heard
The world is not your kingdom
Nor is life your plaything
Wake up from the selfish dream
You have lived in

We want to sleep and wake in peace
We don’t want your conceited speech
For we have learned we are safe
When you are away
So, let us alone to live our way
Think of us as living, not as the puppets of clay

Angle’s Pride

You make me smile
You make me cry
When I think about you
I know you shall be fine
My life was so empty without you
That everything could be easily looked through
I whispered with pain- unheard, unseen groan
Then I see you there, when I looked up high
Just beneath the glare of God.
With an angel’s pride.

A Prayer

I may not take you to the stars
Or get you to the Moon and sky
I may not have some angel’s wings
To soar you up and high
All I have is a beautiful heart
To keep you safe and strong
All I have are stretched arms
To hold you tight in storm
All I can do is walk by your side
In the journey of life you endeavor
All I can do is hold you close
So no troubles touch you ever
All I want is make it sure
On your cheeks never a tear rolls
All I can do is take you to the place
Where dreams do born and breed
All I can do is get you there
Where wishes do come indeed
What a powerful thing is fate
It moulds and shapes one’s life
And gives us sorrow with happiness
And challenges with space to strive
But what I want from mighty fate
I am saying through this line
People may ask for lots of things
All I pray is
Make my lady mine.

Few Questions

Light makes us see
But what brings all the glee?
Air lets us breathe
But what makes gardens from heath?
Hope makes us strive
But what actuates the drive?
Faith lets us fight till end
But what makes us tend?
Stars show up when it’s dark
But what lights up the spark?
Sun rises up to give light
But what takes us to the height?
Heart does pump the blood
But from where comes the emotional flood?
Eyes can’t see beyond an extreme
But what makes us see the dream?
Lot more questions still remains
Their answers are as clear as flame
But I don’t dare bring them out
As I afraid it may lead the doubt.
