Episode notes
Sunsets crimson in the sky Telling us of another day gone by Sunset brings yet daylight tomorrow Like great joys come from little sorrow. The clock ticks away its time on the wall Yet time is timeless of it all Time is undivided and pace-less Time is immeasurable and boundless. Time and tide wait for no man They both move on since the world began Racing against time we always are So much to do and to go so far. Why are the days just so small? Why can time not be at our call? Days gone by are often pleasant Be they of a prince or a peasant. The bird of time flies in the sky It cannot be…

Dil Ki Dhadkan
Yeh dil kaise dhadakta hai Na thamta hai na rukta hai Har pal dhadakte jaata hai Na jaane kya kehna chahta hai. Yeh tootta hai par rukta nahi Rota hai par thamta nahi Bade kehte kabhi “dil bada karo” Wo to lekin baccha hain - uski bhi to kabhi suno. “Dil ki suno”, “dil se karo” Yahi sayane kehte hain Dil to kehta sab kuch Bas kami sunne mein reh jaati hain. Dil ye keemti tohfa khuda ka Mehfooz rakhna farz hamara Paalan poshan aur saaf swasth rakhna Yeh bhi hai kartavya hamara. Aandhi aaye toofan aaye Is dil pe kabhi aanch na aaye. Dil jab kisi pe aa jaata hai Na jaane kya ho jaata hai…

Shaurat Ki Kimat
Shaurat ko dhoondte safar mein aage chale gaye zaroor Peeche mudh ke dekha toh sare rishte reh gaye door. Na koi saathi na humdum Shikhar per akele khade hain hum. Kahan hai woh dost, kahan bhai bandhu Kahan hai woh khilkhilati hasi Kahan hai woh beparwaah masti. In sub ki bali hum dete rahe hur dum Aur shaurat ke naam pe akele reh gaye hum.

Tum Yaad Aate Ho
Accha hai kuch raaz tumne Ab bhi chipaye rakhe hain Varna ae khuda tumhein Kaun yaad rakhta. Koi anhoni jab hoti hai Mann baichain ho jaata hai Seene mein hook se uthti hai Dil dard se karrahta hai Tum yaad aate ho. Dharti par jab keher barasta hai Goliyan seena chhalti hain Hahakar ki cheekhe uthti hain Rehem ki sada goonjti hai Tum yaad aate ho. Antim saanse jab hoti hain Apnon se bidaai lete hain Aankhon se moti girte hain Aakhri safar ko jab chalte hai Tum yaad aate ho.

Khushi
Khushi dhoondne nikle thé hum Jhowlee mein aaye kayi aansu kuch gum Khushi dhoondte zindagi bitaayi Phir bhi khushi haath na aayi. Khushi kyon humnein na payi? Kyon hamein khushi raas na aayi? Phir ek din masoom si awaz yoon aayi “Kya khushi se mulaqat ho payi??” Haste haste woh yeh keh gayi Aur main tub tak samajh na payi Shiddat se jise dhoondte ho, wohi khushi hoon main Tumhare har saans mein basi hoon main. Bahar kahan talashte ho bhai Mai toh tumhare andar hoon samayi Apne andar jhank ke dekho Rub ne beinteha khushiyan basaayi. Khushi ki talash mein kaynat chaan mari Nazrein jhukayin…

The World Beyond
Close your eyes and see the world beyond Where peace and tranquility are always found. Hear the sounds of silence too The music for the truly true. A bright light will light the way To see beyond the “lazy eye” Stay in there as long as you will Time for you will then stand still When you open your eyes slowly You may then comprehend finally The mysteries of the world beyond Where peace and tranquility are always found.

Hope
Friends, dear friends do not despair All your sorrows we’d like to share Would like to wipe the tear off that face And put a smile on every face. We know the desert and the raging heat We know staying there is a great feat We know Shalaan camp and its plight We know you have put up a brave fight. What is happening to you is just not fair We all know and we all care Good times will come do not despair From all of it you will get a fair share. We understand your anxiety And promise it’s not for long Soon it will be a bad dream Forgotten and gone. So do not lose hope have courage dear friends…

A Plea
With heavy hearts we go to war Wondering why it came this far Distressed faces, energy zapped Wondering if every source was tapped. Is there no stone left unturned? Have all the efforts been actually spurned? This is the question on every mind The answer to which is hard to find. The world is sad at the outcome today Chaos and destruction will now come to play “Scuds” and “patriots” fired in the sky Panic stricken people shout and cry. Depression is written everywhere Tension is filled in the air Forces fight for what each thinks is right He will win who has the might. Innocent peoples’…

A Rose
A rose will be a rose all its life Though thorns along its side may thrive Rose is a symbol of youth and beauty Kind, gentle, soft and pretty. Thorns on the side do sometimes hurt Yet protect the rose for all they are worth To Aurora and Cupid it is all so sacred Emblem of beauty and love devoid of hatred. Bathed in the blood of wounded Venus The white rose changed its colour since Undeterred by the worlds callousness It survives to spread its fragrance. Pretty petals all so pure Sad to know how much they endure Nurture it with care and love Being more gentle than a dove. The little bud…

Recipes
The easy way to a man’s heart Is to make a curry and bake a tart Like a king you make him feel Even though he may be a heel.

Always say “I love you darling” Even if inside you is burning Flutter eyelashes and with an…
