Go take your macho wars

Go take your macho wars
And thrust them you know where
Let us live in peace
You recuperate elsewhere.

Maar dalo saalon ko

Maar dalo saalon ko
Apni phitrat se
Apni ummeed bhari
Phir jawan nafrat se...

Kyonki khush rehna
Ya rehne dena
Na unhe aata hai
Na hamen, hai na ?


मार डालो सालों को
अपनी फितरत से
अपनी उम्मीद भरी
फिर जवां नफरत से

क्योंकि खुश रहना
या रहने देना
ना उन्हें आता है
ना हमें, है ना?

Hush hush Neigbour

Go hush hush on the neighbouring country
Don't draw attention
Talk of peace, amity and love
But don't please let go of the tension.

My neighbours

Why must I say
All my neighbours are bad
For when I look around
The ones inside are as sad

(India, Pakistan)

All rise

Was thinking of saying
Something wise
Assume that I did
All rise.

Time to pack up

Time to pack up
The Arrogance
The Modesty
The Indifference
Time to be
You

Who dig deep apathy

There is death
And there is dance
On this campus
We don't give a chance
For grief to sink in
Or sadness to disappear
Hey man, get a grip, you
We have no fear
Of facing life
Or doing empathy
For we are the ones
Who dig deep apathy.

Why bother

When it is not easy
We keep ourselves very busy
When its the other
Why bother.

I am like a tree

I am like a tree
Stuck in one place
I am so like it
Germinating in space.

Let us make a promise

Let us make a promise
A one that would stay
I would not make one such
This night or this day.

Praise

Praise can put you right up
Or take you oh so down
A hero it makes you feel
Makes you feel like a clown.

My eyes were soaking wet

My eyes were soaking wet
The onions took time to unpeel
The teachers' day was coming to an end
I heard me saying, big deal.

Janmdin mubarak ho

Janmdin mubarak ho
Ab budha chale sanam
Kuch kiya, kuch kar sake
Kuch aur hain ye bhram

जन्मदिन मुबारक हो
अब बुढ़ा चले सनम
कुछ किया, कुछ कर सके
कुछ और हैं ये भ्रम
