A poem A DAY keeps tension away!!

Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on, feet of clay
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going anyway...
 
No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday
Now's the time for us to say...

Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and
 
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and i

Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more
Than confetti on the floor
It's the end of a decade
In another ten years time
Who can say what we'll find
What lies waiting down the line
In the end of eighty-nine...

Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and i
 
All is quiet on new year's day,
A world in white gets underway,
And I want to be with you,
Be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on new year's day.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.

Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white.
Arms entwined, the chosen few,
Newspapers say, it says it's true.
 
And we can break through,
Though torn in two we can be one.
I will begin again, I will begin again.
Oh and maybe the time is right,
Oh maybe tonight.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.
And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage.
Though I want to be with you,
To be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on new year's day.
 
I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain

If I wait for stormy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain

Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
But since we're not together
I pray for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see

Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain

I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
 
Early morning
Eight o'clock precise
I see the lonely August sun arise

Say you know
You will
Move me like you do

Out on the fields...
I'm waiting the whole night through
Early morning, early morning, yeah

Ran the whole way
Down to the tracks
Through the doorway
Then a last look back

Say you know
You will
Save me like you do

Out on the fields...
I've waited the whole night through
Early morning, early morning, yeah

I climbed all the stairways
To find the rooftop clear
Got the shotgun lying with me here
Say you know
You will
Move me like you do

Out on the fields...
You know how it feels, yeah
Early morning, early morning, yeah

Early morning
Eight o'clock precise



I CALL YOUR NAME (4:51)
(Pal Waaktaar/Magne Furuholmen)

We got married on a cold mid-winter's morning
We said our lines
Then kissed
And it was over

Those pronouncements had such weight
I guess they made us hesitate
Hesitate

When she moved her hips
And swayed in my direction
I thought we could make it yet
And beat the isolation

But in that gentle dark
Man, we tore ourselves apart

Through fire and rain
Through wilderness and pain
Through the losses, through the gains
On love's roller coaster train
I call your name

...We used to laugh
Is the fire dying, babe
It hurts to ask

Let me hold you for awhile.

...We used to laugh

Let me hold you for awhile.
 
Your coat is hanging loosely
On your slender frame
There's many roads to leave by
But few come back again

I don't believe it
I believe it

Take a look around and see
What's stopping you is stopping me
One moonless night we'll make it right
And vanish in the dark of night

Pack up your things and go
Run down the road, don't take it slow
Pack up your things today and run away
Yeah, run away

You say it's useless crying
Never got you far
You claim there's none as lonely
Lonely as you are

I don't believe it
I believe it

Take a look around and see
What's breaking you is breaking me

One moonless night we'll make it right
And vanish in the dark of night
 
Half of a letter
Tells half a story
The way I see it
It's half the worry
Where I came from
I forgot too soon...
East of the sun
And west of the moon

Money talks
And hey, I'm listening
I've lived without it
Enough to miss it
Where I'm going
I'll get there soon
East of the sun
And west of the moon

Ooh, never gonna get there later
You know, I wanna get there soon
Never gonna get there, baby
On a desert road to home
East of the sun
And west of the moon

Another day leaves me aching
I try to wake up
But something's breaking
Here inside me
Deep and hollow
A sound that no other sound could follow
I know the pain
Before the wound
East of the sun
And west of the moon
 
Can't stop thinking 'bout it
It fills me with unease
Out there by the roadside something's buried
Under sycamore leaves

Wet grounds, late September
The foliage of the trees
I came upon this feeling that someone's lying
Covered by sycamore leaves

And I could never make it
And I could never see
And I could never break out
And shake it's grip on me
 
Waiting for her
That's all I ever do
Waiting for her

So why didn't I
Take the measures justified

Our love has always been the same
She comes, then goes away again
Oh yeah

She used to say
We never have the breaks we should've had
Coming our way

But why didn't I take that time and put it right

Our love has always been the same
She leaves me standing out in the rain -
Oh yeah

Send her my love
She's all I'm thinking of
Oh yeah
I'm telling you

And when she's sleeping by my side
Eyes closed, all knowledge trapped inside
- Oh yeah

So why didn't I
Take the measures justified
Send her my love
She's all I'm thinking of …

Oh yeah
I'm telling you
 
I took a ride in an automobile
Pushed my hands out against the wheel

Asked a girl if she needed a ride
She said, "Sure, babe, but I wanna drive"

Hey now, wait awhile
We're going down with a smile
Cold river - she took me down
Cold river - she took my pride

River runs so deep
It runs so deep
It runs so deep

Had to stop on account of the storm
Seemed like years since I'd been warm

We drove all night till the tires blew
Got in the back and did what you do

Hey now, wait awhile
We're going down with a smile
Cold river -- she took me down
Cold river -- she took my pride
On a sunny day
On a sunny day
(She took my pride)
All the money you made
Did you need it,
 
It's the weight below us
And our fate before us
Like a rolling thunder
Rolling up from under
Don't ever leave this way
I know it's getting harder, but hey
If your world should crumble, yeah
And the rain gets in
Running through your skin
Soaking you outside in

The rain ... see it falling
But I don't know how long it will be
Until the storm is over
I'll wait
I will

Like the years of silence
To the growing violence
Like a rolling thunder
Rolling up from under
Don't ever leave me this way
Wait a little longer, yeah, stay
Through all the night I tumble, yeah
When the rain comes in
I will shed my skin
Losing it from within

See the rain ... it's falling
But I won't be leaving your side
Until all is over
I'll wait
I will

So many lifetimes you've been waiting for it
All through the good times
When you tried to ignore it
You hesitate
It's come too late
You hear the sound
Of when wheels engage

When the rain comes in
I will shed my skin
Losing it from within
 
Walking by strangers
Stranger than me
We talk of the future
Between you and me

Sweet little darling
Where will we be
Sweet little darling
Where will we be

It's hard to conceive it
All comes to an end
A joke when it's funny, well...
I laugh and pretend

We're fools to believe it
We're fools to try
To slow down this seemingly
 
LITTLE EYES UPON YOU**
There are little eyes upon you
and they're watching night and day.
There are little ears that quickly
take in every word you say.
There are little hands all eager
to do anything you do;
And a little boy who's dreaming
of the day he'll be like you.
You're the little fellow's idol,
you're the wisest of the wise.
In his little mind about you
no suspicions ever rise.
He believes in you devoutly,
holds all that you say and do;
He will say and do, in your way,
when he's grown up like you.
There's a wide-eyed little fellow
who believes you're always right;
And his eyes are always opened,
and he watches day and night.
You are setting an example
every day in all you do,
For the little boy who's waiting
to grow up to be like you.
 
शहर कि इस दौड मॆ दौड कॆ करना क्या है..
अगर यहि जिना है दॊस्तॊ, तॊ फिर मरना क्या है..
पहले बरिश मै ट्रैन् लॆट हॊनॆ कि फिक्र है..
भुल गयॆ भिगतॆ हुऎ टहलना क्या हॊता है..
सिरिअल्स कॆ किरदारॊ का सारा हाल है मालुम..
पर मा का हाल पुछनॆ कि पुरसत कहा है..?
अब रॆत पॆ नन्गै पैर टहलतॆ क्यॊ नही..?
108 है चैनल पर दिल बहलतॆ क्यॊ नही..?
इन्टरनॆट पॆ सारी दुनिया सॆ तॊ टच मैन् है
लॆकीन पडॊस मै कौन रहता है जानतॆ तक नही.
मॊबाईल,लैन्डलाईन सब की भरमार् है..
लॆकीन जीगरी दॊस्त तक पहुचॆ ऐसॆ तार कहा है..?
कब डूबतॆ हुऎ सुरज कॊ दॆखा था याद है.??
कब जाना था वॊ शाम का गुजरना क्या है..??
तॊ दॊस्तॊ शहर कि ईस दौड मै दौड कॆ करना क्या है..
अगर यही जीना है तॊ मरना क्या है

Beautiful poem dude... very touching....... !!

Btw, how do u write in Hindi on the forum.................?
 
चलो ......
चलो कि शायद तुम्हारे चलने से
चल सकें कुछ और क़दम
सूरज की ओर

उगाए जा सके कुछ और दरख़्त
चिड़ियों के घोसलों के लिए

बजने लगे मुस्कुराहतों के झूंझु ने
सज़ायाफ़्ता इन मासूम से चेहरों पर

चलो ......
चलो कि शायद तुम्हारी ऊँगली पकड़
भटके हुए मानूस, लौट सकें
घरों को अपने

हौसला कर सके कोई , तपती धूप में
बंजर धरती पे हल चलाने का

गुमान हो जाए मासूम मेरे यारो को
ख़ुद के खुदा हो जाने का

चलो ......
चलो कि शायद तुम्हे चलता देख
क़ायम रहे भरोसा लोगों में
इंतज़ार करने का

जला सकें दिया वो दयो ढी पे
जबकि चूल्हा भी ना जला हो आँगन का

नाचे सब मीरा रैदास बन
मौक़ा मिले सबको उसके विरह में रोने का

चलो ......
चलो , कि यक़ीनन तुम्हारे चलने से
मंदिर का खुदा भी बेचैन हो जाएगा
बुत से निकल तेरे संग चलने को

इसलिए चलो.........बस बढ़ते चलो
 
Looking for someone this day,
Dusk has been already seen,
Awaiting a call from that serene voice,
it's worth gold or diamonds after all.

Around this scene,
moving in circles,
as these pictures slide by,
her illusion is seen.

Much serene did she sound until this day,
all was happy and gay until yesterday,
But then again it seemed to me,
A fair angel i see,
so indifferently different,
but yet indifferent indeed
