Stubborn...

I do not want my house to be walled in on sides and my windows to be stuffed. I want the cultures of all the lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be swept off my feet.

- M.K. Gandhi

Mera Joota Hai Japani,
Yeh Patloon Englishtani,
Sar Pe Laal Topi Roosi,
Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani...


- Raj Kapoor, Shri 420

Junoon...

...Chod meri khata,
Chod meri khata,
Chod meri khata,
Tu to pagal nahin...


- Sayonee (Junoon)

Bridge Over Troubled Water..

"...I'm on your side. when times get rough
And friends just cant be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down..."


-Bridge Over Troubled Water (S&G)

Flamboyantly Flies Floyd



So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell?
Blue skies from pain...?
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.


-Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd)

Heart and Head

Das Herz ist stärker als Verstand...
The heart is stronger than the mind...

- A Claudia Jung & Richard Clayderman song

Zameen Aasman Ka Farak

Machli Pakadne Ka Jaal Bichane Se,
Ambar Ke Tare Phanse Kya?
