Aansuon ki aad me....

Aansuon ki aad me tera pyaar nikaal raha hun

Likh Likh k kore kagaz pe teri yaadein utaar raha hun

Tere gam me itna pighal gaya hun

Khud to jal raha hun

Auron ko bhi jala raha hun..

Jaane kyun ab bhi sochta hun tujhe

Jaane kyun ab bhi tere sapne dekhta hun

Jaanta hun ab tu mere sapno me nahi

Phir bhi na jane kyun apne sapne tod raha hun main..

Tujhe pane ki chahat me

Tere aane k intezaar me

Ro ro k dekh ye raatein guzaar raha hun main..

Khud se hi kuch yun tanha hun main

Khud se hi yun rootha hun

Khud se hi ab ye poochta hun

Teri yaadein me kyun dooba hun

Tujhko ko to kabse bhula dia

Tere har khat ko ab to jala dia

Fir bhi yaadon ko teri, sang sang liye chal raha hun..

Kehne ko ab kuch nahi hai

Fir kya kahun tujhse

Janta hun teri khata nahi hai

Phir kyu gila karun tujhse

Ye teri nahi ye meri galti thi,

Isiliye apne san sang liye ja raha hun

Khud to jal raha hun auron ko bhi jala raha hun

Likh likh ke is kore kagaz pe teri yaadein utaar raha hun…

Facts Behind Our National Anthem!

Facts about "Jana Gana Mana" - Just a thought for the National Anthem!

How well do you know about it?

I have always wondered who is the "adhinayak" and "bharat bhagya vidhata", whose praise we are singing. I thought might be Motherland India!

Our current National Anthem "Jana Gana Mana" is sung throughout the country.

Did you know the following about our national anthem, I didn't.

To begin with, India's national anthem, Jana Gana Mana Adhinayaka, was written by Rabindranath Tagore in honor of King George V and the Queen of England when they visited India in 1919. To honor their visit Pandit Motilal Nehru had the five stanzas included, which are in praise of the King and queen. (And most of us think it is in the praise of our great motherland!!!)

In the original Bengali verses only those provinces that were under British rule, i.e. Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, Maratha etc. were mentioned. None of the princely states were recognized which are integral parts of India now Kashmir, Rajasthan, Andhra, Mysore or Kerala. Neither the Indian Ocean nor the Arabian Sea was included, since they were directly under Portuguese rule at that time. The Jana Gana Mana Adhinayaka implies that King George V is the lord of the masses and Bharata Bhagya Vidhata is "the bestower of good fortune". Following is a translation of the five stanzas that glorify the King:

First stanza: (Indian) People wake up remembering your good name and ask for your blessings and they sing your glories. (Tava shubha naame jaage;tava shubha aashish maage, gaaye tava jaya gaatha)

Second stanza: Around your throne people of all religions come and give their love and anxiously wait to hear your kind words.

Third stanza: Praise to the King for being the charioteer, for leading the ancient travelers beyond misery.

Fourth stanza: Drowned in the deep ignorance and suffering, poverty-stricken, unconscious country? Waiting for the wink of your eye and your mother's (the Queen's) true protection.

Fifth stanza: In your compassionate plans, the sleeping Bharat(India)will wake up. We bow down to your feet O' Queen, and glory to Rajeshwara (the King).

This whole poem does not indicate any love for the Motherland but depicts a bleak picture. When you sing Jana Gana Mana Adhinayaka, whom are you glorifying? Certainly not the Motherland. Is it God? The poem does not indicate that.It is time now to understand the original purpose and the implication of this, rather than blindly sing as has been done the past fifty years. Nehru chose the present national anthem as opposed to Vande Mataram because he thought that it would be easier for the band to play!!! It was an absurd reason but Today for that matter bands have advanced and they can very well play any music.

So they can as well play Vande Mataram, which is a far better composition in praise of our dear 

Motherland -India.Wake up, it's high time!
Shouldn't Vande Mataram be our National Anthem?

Vo Maza Hi Kuch Aur Tha...

Teri har baat ka maza kuch aur tha
teri har mulakat ka maza kuch aur tha.
Tere sath rehne ka, Tere paas rehne ka, tere har baar rehne ka maza kuch aur tha..

Tujhe khoya, Fir paya aur pa ke fir kho dia,

Is paa ke khone ka andaaz hi kuch aur tha.

Is aane jane ke beech un hasti khelti baaton ka,

Vo do pal sath bitane ka maza hi kuch aur tha…

Jab chaha tujhe, tu tha nahi

Jab maanga tujhe, tu mila nahi

Tera yun mujhe chhod jane ka maza kuch aur tha…

Khush to main tab bhi tha

Khush to main ab bhi hun

Par tera mujhe rulane ka maza hi kuch aur tha..

Vo raaton ko jagane ka,

Har baat pe tujhe chidane ka

Vo chhup chhup ke tuje dekhna

Aur dekh ke yun muskurane ka maza hi kuch aur tha..

Tera man hi man has jane ka

Mujhse yun sharmane ka,

Vo tera tera yun chhoo jane ka maza hi kuch aur tha..

Tu sath nahi hai ab mere,

Fir bhi tujhe soche jane ka,

Teri yaadon me kho jane ka,

Tujhse mera yun mil jane ka maza hi kuch tha..

Tujhe baar baar bulana ka,

Lad ke bhi pyaar jatane ka,

Har baat me sath nibhane ka maza hi kuch aur tha..

Tu ab bhi mere sath hai,

Teri yaadein mere paas hain,

Khush to main  tab bhi tha,

Khush to main ab bhi hun,

Par Tera sath paane ka ae-dost maza hi kuch aur tha….
