2011 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 25,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 9 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

How trends are set

The below image should definitely look familiar to all.. !  It is so apt and really sad that this is currently how trends are created. Imagination seems to have been lost in the dense jungles..!! C’mon readers, think out of the box and try to do something new, something different, something for which your magical trend is remembered! cheers all!

Mushaira – Rahi Bastavi vs Nikhat Amrohi

 

Rahi Bastavi

tere payal ki jhankaar…are re baban ababa

tujhe kaun karega pyaar…are re baban ababa!

 

tu ghar aangan ki izzat thi…pehle is ghar ki zeenat thi

tujhse duniya aabaad hui…tu hi pehle barbaad hui

bikti hai khule bazaar…are re baban ababa!

tujhe kaun karega pyaar… are re baban ababa!

 

kahi maa hai kahi biwi bankar…beti hai, behan hai tu ghar ghar

kadmo mein tere jannat aayi…phir bhi na tujhe gairat aayi

yeh roop tera singaar…are re baban ababa!

tujhe kaun karega pyaar… are re baban ababa!

 

ache ache gir jaate hai…bas ek teri angdaayi mein

ek lamhe main das leti hai…nagan bankar purvaee mein

tera kaun banega yaar…are re baban ababa!

tujhe kaun karega pyaar… are re baban ababa!

 

tu ghar mein dulhan ban kar aayi…pehle to bahut kuch sharmaee

ab ghoom rahi hai sadko par…koi sangh chale pichar sichar

tere har din hai itwaar…are re baban ababa!

tujhe kaun karega pyaar… are re baban ababa!

 

 

Nikhat Amrohi

Main tujhko sikhau pyaar…are re baban ababa (2)

koshish hai meri bakaar…are re baban ababa!

 

main ek kali pyaari si…main gulshan ki hariyaali

tu ek harjaayi bhawran…fir ta daali daali

teri rag rag mein ayyaari…mein ladki bholi bhaali

meri lehja khushbu jaisa…teri baat baat mein gaali

mein saahil tu majhdaar…are re baban ababa!

mein tujhko sikhau pyaar.. are re baban ababa!

 

tu ek shikaari cheetah…mein seedhi sachhi gaay

tu kaid kare duniya mein…aur mujhko aib laagaayein

mere paav mein hai jo ghungroon…tune hi mujhe pehnaaye

waadon se mujhe behlaaye…tu jhooti kasmein khaaye

ek din mein sau sau baar…are re baban ababa!

mein tujhko sikhau pyaar.. are re baban ababa!

 

teri har nainsaafi…rehti hain meri nazar mein

maathen pe shikan hon tere…to dard ho mere sar mein

badle hai kitne saathi…tune is ek safar mein

tu ghoomein duniya bhar mein…main kaid rahun tere ghar mein

dohra hai tera kirdar…are re baban ababa!

mein tujhko sikhau pyaar.. are re baban ababa!

 

kya saath hai tera mera…tu shaam hai mai hoon savera

main ghar pe rasta dekhoon…tera basti basti dhera

tu ek feraahi panchi…har shaak pe tera basera

aur mujhpar ye paa baadi…main naam japu bas tera

tu chaahe biwiya chaar…are re baban ababa!

mein tujhko sikhau pyaar.. are re baban ababa!

 

Thoughts that clatter !

Clattering Thoughts

Have you heard the clattering sound, just jingling in your ears and waiting to come out ? Ah! yes.. so do I.. be it while walking, talking or listening to someone, when these sudden thoughts just want to spurt out but nonetheless something keeps holding you back..!!

Is it fear or is it consciousness or is it the lack of confidence in you that does not want to make the first move ? Yes, you know your answer very well! It is not me that has to teach you or make you comprehend.

These thoughts which keep clattering in the back of your mind or may be front at times are being held back so securely, that the mere thought of it jittering it out sends a shiver down your spine. So let’s discuss what may keep you aback:

• Fear: scared of what? fear of being wrong ? fear of loosing to yourself that you could not make a right decision !
• Consciousness: Are you afraid that you have not thought exactly what the other people should be thinking and you really cannot stand out of the crowd?
• Confidence: are you not bold enough to accept things the way they are? Are you really passive and are not able to judge yourself?

Yeah, I feel these three critical factors must be understood, before you want to make those juggling thoughts in your mind to stop clatter and give you a peace of mind.

Because – once the thoughts stop to clatter is when u attain the true nirvana !

JuNe already!

OMG… 2011 has almost come to a mid line with the beginning of June..!

So many things rapidly changing and so much still at a stand still :S

Yeah.. it works both the ways.. one never gets to eat a sweet ripe fruit daily! One must learn to savour the sour tastes too!!

Saying this, my life till date has been a roller coaster – full of ups and down and it seems that this coaster is not at all coming to a stand still… Cmon – i need a break.. in the sense not a real break.. you knw what I mean.. your the one to teach us.. your the one from whom we learn. and you are the one from whom we expect.!

Yes.. I’m talking about GOD… the holy almighty whom we all go to in times of sorrow and joy..! Our faith in him provides us the opportunity to hope… to  hope for the best..! So, keeping my fingers crossed, i jump back to my coaster hoping it will soon turn into a jolly ride..

Spooky – freaky – haunted

 Yeah.. lately out of no reason.. or may be i just don’t wanna discuss it… I’ve been very freakish and petrified of the things around me..!!

Don’t know if that is normal to me or isit just me who is feeling it !

Ooops! i forgot to mention the main part of the story though; it is not likely that I stand to be so called terrorized by anything and everything around me.. its just this eerie feeling that has bestowed upon me by my so called friends grace!

I don’ t want to discuss the story here but just wanted to share this and wanted to know if this is kind of normal

Shhhhhh .. !
