Bulla ki Jaanaa
man this is a good song and so i wud like to share it with others tooooooooooo.
Bulla, I know not who I am
Bulla, I know not who I am
Nor am I the believer in mosque
Nor am I in idol worship
Nor am in the pure or the impure
Nor am I in the Vedas
Nor am I in the intoxicants
Nor am I in the carefree deviant
Nor am I union nor grief
Nor am I in the pure/impure
Nor am I of the water nor of the land
Nor am I fire nor air
Bulla, I know not who I am
Nor am I Arabic nor from Lahore
Nor am I the Indian city of Nagaur
Nor am I Hindu nor a Peshawari turk
Nor did I create the difference of faith
Nor did I create Adam-Eve
Nor did I name myself
Beginning or end I know just the self
Do not recognise ’’the other one’’
There’s none wiser than I
Who is this Bulla Shah
Bulla, I know not who I am
truth expressed in the statement
man is nothing as compared to this amazing place called world
no matter what my faith is i was not really given the choice to choose it
i have been given a religion when i was born , i even never knew what it means to me . but yet there are children who have been killed in riots becoz they belonged to a particular community
what role can i play in this world
i have no importance in the workng of this world
this world can go on even when i am not there
what happyness or sorrow can i provide to others . what power have i got
may be i am made of elements but what is my existance without these elements
what am i . i am not just a part of this world i am nothing without it.
what am i oh my senses can not think
i belong to this world
i cant belong to any particular place
what makes me belong to any particular place
and yet its the human s who has created the difference based on faith
he does not realise what his existance means
why is he here
he just knows himself and others like him
he does not realise that there such a big world which also exists
his mind is blind
he can rule the world
he has the might to do so ........ does he?
who else has the might i can see no one
huh we are living in a fools world , no one realises what we have .
forget the fact why we have it.
if you believe that christ really came to this world and got crucified to wipe of the sins of humans , now even he is scared of coming to this world full of crazy lunatics
the real existance known to us as nature is ready to make man realise what his life is.
batta bande teri razaa kya hai.

ok back again to normal
ok happy frindship day (belated) to all who came on the friendship week. well i had thought of signing off with a good post on friendship in my life , but unforunately i cudnt access internet for two days . ( power cutoff and LAN problems). well so now you wll once again see some usual posts in my world on the net.. well some thought that i am obsessed with friendship and one said that i must be having a real good times with my friends .. ... well you might just not have heard a saying "the importance of love is only felt in its absence" .. not that i strive for love .... coz i get a plenty of it from my family .. its just that a nice friend would certainly add up as a cushion to my life...
anyways lets leave that ... well for now the news is that i finally figured out the way to upload and post images on my blog so now i will also be posting some images....

Koi to Dilbar ho yaar, Jisko tujhse ho pyaar
Koi to Dilbaar ho yaar.
Teri harek burai pe daanten woh dost.
Gham ki ho dhoop to saya bane, tera woh dost
Naache bhi woh teri khushi main....
Are Yaaron ! Dosti badi hi haseen hai
Yeh na ho to kya fir, bolo yeh zindagi hai
Koi to ho raazdaar, begaraz tera ho yaar
Koi to ho raazdaar.....
Tan man kare tujhe pe fida, Mehboob woh
Palkon pe jo rakhe tujhe Mehboob woh
Jiski wafa tere liye ho....
Are Yaaron ! Mohabbat hi to bandagi hai
Yeh na ho to kya fir bolo yeh zindagi hai
Koi to Dilbar ho yaar, Jisko tujhse ho pyaar
Koi to Dilbaar ho yaar.

friendship the way i see it
the relations where you cant choose are the blood relations , and the ones you can choose are called friendship ...
friendship is the the name that is the beginning of a bond between strangers..
as far as i can recall the first time ever i recognised someone as my friend had to be in the school.
actually friendships get a platform from schools itself...
where else would you see someone interacting with the same person for 10 years....
i personally believe that no one can have a greater bond than the one developed between friends who have been togeather from the school life..
well but i dont say it is always they who share the best of relationships....
actually the kind of friends u have also shows something about u and u never know when u might just run into the person u wud like to freak out with...
even a introvert person might like to be with a big-mouthed chatter-box.
cautious person might like the company of an adventureous person..
u know this is one relationship that generally has no bounds..
actually i dont think that friendship is bound to only a particular age group
i think that even if i want to interact with a 45 yrs old person then i would be terming that as friendship
eventually it is the choice that i have made to devlop a relation with someone..
but actually friendship goes much further than just the relation with others.
now i understand what it means .....
today i know there is a difference between a classmate and a friend....

cute sayings for a friend
Feel good when somebody Miss u. Feel better when somebody Loves u. But feel best when somebody never forgets u.
A friend is sweet when its new….but it is sweeter when its TRUE! But u know what? Its sweetest when its you.
Flowers need sunshine, violets need dew, all angels in heaven know I need u. years may fly, tears may dry, but my friendship with u will never die.
One day u will ask me: What is more important to you, me or your life? I will say: my life… You will walk away from me without knowing that U R MY LIFE!!!
A friend gives hope when life is low, a friend is a place when you have nowhere to go, a friend is honest, a friend is true. A friend is precious a friend is u.
If kisses were water, I will give u sea. If hugs were leaves, I will give u a tree.If u luv a planet, I will give u a galaxy, if friendship is life I will give u mine.
People live People die People Laugh People Cry Some give up Some will try Some say hi Some say bye Others may forget YOU but never will I.
If I were to be anything in this world…. I’d be ur tears!!!… So, I can be conceived in ur heart, born in ur eyes, live on ur cheeks & die on ur lips!!!!!
If u r a chocolate ur the sweetest, if u r a Teddy Bear u r the most huggable, If u are a Star u r the Brightest, and since u r my “FRIEND” u r the “BEST”!!!!!!!!!
A special friend is rare indeed,it beems to be special breed,yes,perfect friends r very few,so lucky I m for having you.
They say it takes a minute 2 fine a special person, an hour 2 appreciate them, a day 2 love them, but then an entire life 2 forget them.
When God opened the window of the Heaven He asked me: What is your wish for today? “I said : please take special care of the person reading this!!!!!!!”
Time might lead me to nowhere and faith might break into pieces but I will always be THANKFUL that once in my life’s journey we became FRIENDS!
It takes half our life to find true friends & half of it keeping them.I am lucky to have spent less than half my life finding you & wish to spend the rest keeping you.
In my life I learned how… 2 love 2 smile 2 be happy 2 be strong 2 work hard 2 be honest 2 be faithful 2 forgive but I couldn’t learn how.. 2 stop rembering u.
I have seen angels in the sky… I have seen snowfall in july… I have seen things u only imAgine to see… But I haven’t seen anything sweeter than u.
There r many stars but the moon is u, there are many friends but the best is u,, To forget me that’s up to u,,, To forget u I will never ever do.
U may be out of my sight, but not out of my heart, U may be out of my reach but not out of my mind.I may mean nothing to u but u will always be special to me!!
How can u tell the rain not 2 fall when clouds exist? How can u tell the leaves not 2 fall when wind exist? How can u tell me not to fall in friendship when u exist.
Knowing a friend like u has made me happy in a million ways And if Ever I Have to Let you go………..I would Find a million reasons to make u stay!!!!
If I m in hell & u in heaven, I always look up & be proud of u. but if I were In heaven & u in hell, I beg God 2 send me down coz heaven wont be heaven without u.
Life is 4 u, death is 4 me, being happy is 4 u, being sad is 4 me, being together is 4 u, being lonely is 4 me, everything 4 u but u r 4 me.
If I could pull down the rainbow I would write ur name with it & put it back in the sky to let everybody know how colourful my life is with a friend like u!!
Never say ur happy when ur sad… never say ur fine when ur not ok… never say u feel good when u feel bad… and never say ur alone when I m still alive.
Sometimes my mind asked why? I miss u, Why? I care 4 u, Why? I remember u then my heart answered its simply b’coz you are a sweet friend!!
A friend is sweet when its new….but it is sweeter when its TRUE! But u know what? Its sweetest when its you.
Flowers need sunshine, violets need dew, all angels in heaven know I need u. years may fly, tears may dry, but my friendship with u will never die.

friendship means
You know you have a friend for life when they answer the phone at one in the morning because you can't sleep and have a lot on your mind, and they don't mind talking about nothing to get your mind off everything.
They spare some time to spend with you.
When you know that if something bad happened to you they'd be there for you, no questions asked.
When you can look at them when some thing is wrong and they know it just by the look in their eyes and all they have to do is offer a hug and you feel a thousand times better.
When you know that they'd never lie to you, and would never hurt you and if they did it would only be for your betterment.
They can make you laugh when skies are the darkest, and they're there with a good movie and some popcorn when you're totally depressed.
And even if you're a thousand miles apart, it doesn't matter because what you share with this friend is so much deeper then what lies on top that distance plays no role in your friendship.
Friendship is when they push when you need it, but never too hard; and stand back when the time is right but never to far.
And the true test of friendship is if you're willing to do it all back in a heartbeat.
When you're life is so much better because you know them, and they bring out the best that lies within.
A short course in Human Relations:
The six most important words: "I admit I made a mistake."
The five most important words: "You did a good job."
The four most important words: "What is your opinion."
The three most important words: "If you please."
The two most important words: "Thank you."
The one most important word: "WE"
The least important word: "I"
