I want life
As if I am on death bed…
And you are holding my hand..
My last words struggle at my lips…
My soul moving out from toe tips..
My eyes wide open and blank…
My rosy lips gone black..
Slight and gradual emigrant…
My life’s last remnant..
Sudden jerks in my body..
One, two and three…
My soul in now free..
My body lies silently…
How relaxed and happy…
Is this something deadly ?
How awful to see them crying…
My loved ones see- off me sighing…
I am free but no one along…
Nothing do I belong..
It is so odd and dry…
No life now and never will I die…
No, no, not this…
I want tears and bliss..
I want struggle and life,
I want to giggle and fight…
I want to live and live..
I want life.. I want life..

Brave sons of India
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the Gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die!!!!

Success
Success isn’t when you try same ways many times,
It’s when you start trying new ways,
success isn’t about getting new heights,
It’s when u still remember from where you started,
Success isn’t when you achieve your goal,
It’s when you are still like before you used to be,
Success isn’t when you get some new buddies,
Its when you still remember the old ones,
sucess isn’t when you have your first salary,
It’s when you give it in your parents’ hands.

A Lesson For Success
Getting success is not everyone’s cup of tea
You need full-spirited work when mind is free
In worries, work becomes a half-hearted pursuit
So that becomes your constant lifelong attitude
With a very clear mind and with a fresh start
With wholehearted effort and a devoted heart
Do, all your actions like an unquenchable fire
Nothing would be achieved if so early you tire
With peaceful conscience and with all attentive care
Positively, surely, rightfully, let all your actions flare

A true lover
A thirsty soul with parched throat
For the cause of love, I devote
My life; that could be otherwise used,
Now it lies shaken and abused.
Bruised with shame and disgrace,
Yet heart yearn for love’s praise.
When I die, don’t cry or mourn,
Neither build a mausoleum or dome.
If you ever come to my grave,
That my feelings final restive place.
When you touch my grave and clean the dust-cover,
You will find marking “sleeping here peacefully – A true Lover”
