Lagta Nahin Hai Dil Mera Ujde Dayaar Mein
Kiski Bani Hai Aalam-E-Napaydaar Mein

Itni Jageh Kahan Hai Dil-E-Daagdar Mein

Do we have the moments between us when silence talks louder then words? How often do we judge the other person's reaction after saying something? How many of us have the free time to read the faces of our loved ones? Do we really care to find the unsaid!
Neither do we have the time or the intention to spend quality time with the people who matter the most (even parents are included in this!). important chores, meetings , assignments, mobile ... Read More

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. ~Albert Camus
As the wind quietly changed, a slight chill has settled into its folds signalling that winter is waiting to creep upon us. Preparation of winter begins as our scenery changes colours! Summer trees are showing all shades of red, orange, yellow and brown. Its like our streets have changed costumes and this change is very pleasant as autumn is the perfect pause between the opposing miseries of ... Read More

A recreational cum religious activity for our maulanas takes place a few times every year where a scene is set and maulanas explore the skies. This is called "spot the moon" and whole of the nation looks from their eyes. They have the equipment and the met department to assist them but our moon controversy is here to stay.
All other issues haunting us like floods, drones and sialkot boys are put aside at such times and ... Read More

When a male is born in a Pakistani family, his birth is celebrated. He is loved and pampered by his mom and sisters. One day another female enters the life of this man and (in majority of cases) he fails to maintain a balance. Here is a life story of a typical male in our society.

Q A B A R-(The grave) is our last destination. We keep on denying the fact that we have to die one day. On watching people around us departing for the final journey, we feel death is catching others only. We plan for hundred years and don't know if we will for one more day to live. I am not being negative but thinking about the "end" keeps our perspective about life on the right track. Lets think about it ... Read More

Jahan tak kaam chalta ho ghiza(food) sey

" BACHPAN "
Mujhko yaqeen hai sach kahti thi jo bhi Ammi kahti thi
Jab mere bachpan k din thay chaand mein pariyaan rahti thi
Ek yeh din jab apnoon ne bhi humse naatha thod liya
Ek wo din jab ped ki shaakhein bhoj humara sahti thi
Ek yeh din jab sari sadkein sooni sooni lagti hain
Ek wo din jab aao khelein saari galiyaan kahti thi
Ek yeh din jab jaagi raatein deewaaroon ko thakti hain
Ek wo din jab shaamoon ki bhi palkein bojhal rahti thi

Jitni buree kahi jati hai inti buree nahi hai dunya
Bachoun ke school main shayed tum se milli nahi hai dunya
