My Reflections

Watan ki mitti pukarti hai ab chalo wapas chalen Chhod kar sab aisho ishrat ab chao wapas chlen Maal-o daulat ki justaju ne dar badar tujhko kiya Dhundhne ko ghar wo apna ab chalo wapas chlen Ghair ki basti mein  yun kab talak reh paoge Bula raha hai gaon apna ab chalo wapas chlen Tum bhale hi chhod do maalo daulat sab yaheen Maa faqat chahti hai tujhko ab chalo wapas chlen Aaj poorab ki hawa mein khushbuon ka hai payam bahar aai hai watan mein ab chalo wapas chalen Nashad ho ai Imteyaz reh kar watan se door tum Baandh kar bistar tum apna ab chalo wapas chlen

Rewayat-e pareenah kuch yun kho gaya Shab ki tareeki mein jaise din kho gaya Hui aaj muhabbat bebaak is qadar Izhar-e muhabbat ka saleeqa kho gaya Mukhtasar si zindagi is tarah basar hui Taweel safar pe jaise  musafir so gaya Jashn ka silsilah thamta nahi hai yaan Ghareeb-e shahr jabki bhukha mar gaya Tum hue kyon muztarib ai Imteyaz Dost tha jo aaj agar bewafa ho gaya

India is a kaleidoscope of civilizations. Great urdu poet Raghupati sahai firaq Gourakhpuri rightly said Sarzameen-e hind par aqwam-e aalam ka firaq Qafle guzarte gaye, hindustan banta gaya Various races have been migrating and settling here. Aryans, Mongols, Caucasians and even Dravidans who were once considered to be native of India came from outside. Diversifications in traditions, culture, beliefs make it a truly diverse country. The harmonious co-existence of diverse traditions makes India a unique nation in making. Unity in diversity is the hallmark of India. This idea of India faces serious threat when some group promotes ideology of division among people, when some fringe elements succeed in promoting communal agenda. It frustrates people when parochialism still exist, when untouchability is still a reality, when communalism is still practiced, when gender discrimination is tolerated, when corrupts still rule the roost. At this juncture when our country is poise...

Manzil Ki Justaju mein baRhta chala gaya Dasht-e Junun ki sair mein chalta chala gaya Ek khwab dekha tha mushkil tareen sa Mai dewwana, Khwab bunta chala gaya Ahbab rokte the mushkil ko jaan kar Mai pur khatar si raah par tanha chala gaya Aisa nahi ke raah mein thokar nahi mili Jo raste mein gir paRa to uthta chala gaya Khtatre hain aur rahenge har ghaRi Imteyaz hai ke jab ko laRta chala gay

Minute atom Insignificantly small seed A little salt Few friends and some amount of hope Brings BIG result Enjoy smallness in Big Way

Usne pukara bhi nahi ye sada kahan se aai Shab-e gham toh ab bhi baqi hai ufaq pe yeh roshni kaha se aai yahan toh har taraf ghamzadah chehre hain Phir kaun muskuraya yeh hansi kahan se aai

“There is enough in this world for everybody’s need not enough for anybody’s greed”. Mahatma Gandhi says. The skewed distribution of resources in the world germinates conflict in society and among nations. The insatiable greed of haves to acquire more is depriving have‐nots of their survivability. A study by World University for development economic research at United Nations University reports that the richest 1% of adult alone owned 40% of global assets in the year 2000. The three richest person possess more financial assets than the lowest 48 nations. This economic inequality creates conflict between haves and have‐nots which come to fore in the garb of religious conflict, sectarian conflict, cast conflict, racial conflict, and civilization conflict. The violent reaction of deprived and suppressed is termed as terrorism, naxalism, militancy etc. In fact, all these originate from the fight for resources.
