Manzlein Aur Bhi Hain ...

Manzilein Aur Bhi Baki Hain…
Aarman Aur Bhi Hain…
Taron Se Aage Aasman Bhi Aur Hain...
Din Guzarta Hain Kuch Iss Tarah;
Ahsaan Utar tha Hai Koi;
Gham Sambal tha Hain Kuch Iss Tarah,
Jaise Ghaana Sammbhalata Hai Koi;
Aaina Dekhkar Thsali Hui…
Iss Ghar Main Janta Hai Koi …

Kama Mungu Ni Dj ...

Kama Mungu Ni DJ, Basi Maisha Ni Sakafu Ngoma, Upendo Ni Wa Dansi, Na Wewe Ni Ya Muziki.

Sisi Kupoteza ...

Sisi Kupoteza Muda Kutafuta Lover Kamilifu, Badala Ya Kujenga Upendo Kamilifu.

Wakati Wewe ...

Wakati Wewe Ni Katika Upendo …
Huwezi Kuanguka, Wamelala Kwa Sababu …
Ukweli Ni Bora Zaidi Kuliko Ndoto Yako ...

Ukweli ...



Ukweli Kitu Adimu, Katika Hii Dunia …
Ukweli Japo Muhimu, Watu Wanauchukia …
Ukweli Watia Hamu, Kutaka Kuusemea …
Ukweli Waleta Hofu, Sababu Unaumiza …

Ukweli Pia Amani, Tajaa Na Kufurika,
Ukweli Si Kisirani, Uhasidi Tatoweka,
Ukweli Si Uhaini, Bali Haki Kuiweka,
Ukweli Iwe Ibada, Ingawa Unaumiza.

Zindagi Tere Naam ...

Apni Har Khoshi Tere Naam Kardoon…
Dil Tho Kya…
Zindagi Tere Naam Kardoon…

Rest in Peace Mum ...

Dear God …
You Are Never Wrong....
Another Beautiful Flower In Your Garden …
And Another Bright Star In The Skies....

Rest In Peace Mum …

This really touched me ...

Still None the Wiser ...

I’m A Little Bit Older …
I’m A Little Bit Wiser …
I’m A Little Bit Rounder …
But Still None The Wiser …
~ K Attalia

In The End ...

"In the end, it's not going to matter how many breaths you took …
But how many moments took your breath away …

It Is Better to be Hated for What You Are ...

It Is Better To Be Hated For What You Are...
Than To Be Loved For What You Are Not...

Hume' Tho Apno Ne Hi Loota ...

Hume’ Tho Apno Ne Hi Loota…
Ghearon Se’ Kya Shiqayat Karen …
Hamari Kashti Wahan Jah Doobi…
Jahan Kambhakat Pani Bhi Kum Tha …

Hume' Tho Zindagi Ne Mara ...

Hume' Tho Zindagi Ne Mara…
Maut Mein Kahan Dam Tha...
Hummara Dil Bhi Uspe Aya...
Jiski Bahon Mein Koi Aur Hi Tha ....

Why Should You Read the Guru Granth Sahib Ji ...

Why do we read Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, even if we can't understand a single Gurmukhi word?

I’ll tell you a beautiful story about the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji ...

-=Wahe Guru Ji Ka Khalsa, Wahe Guru Ji Ki Fateh=-

An old Sikh man lived on a farm in the mountains of Punjab with his young grandson.

Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. His grandson adored his grand dad and wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could.

One day the grandson asked, “Dada Ji (Grandpa!) I try to read the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand, I forget as soon as I close the book.

What good does reading the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji do?'

The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, 'Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.'

The boy, as always did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house.

The grandfather laughed and said, 'You'll have to move a little faster next time,' and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.

This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home.

Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead.

The grandfather said, Son 'I don't want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water.

You're just not trying hard enough,' and he went out the door to watch the boy try again.

At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leak out before he got back to the house.

The boy again dipped the basket into river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was empty again.

Out of breath, he said, 'See Grandpa, it's useless!'

'Son, So you think it is useless?' The old man said, 'Look at the basket.'

The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean, inside and out.

'My Son, that's what happens when you read the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji.

You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be changed, inside and out. That is the work of Waheguru (God) in our lives.'

Realisation ...














It's only when we finally realise and understand that we have a limited time on earth ...

It’s only when we finally realise that we have no way of knowing when our time is up ...

It’s only then we will begin to live and enjoy each day to the fullest ...

As if it was our last ... ~ Kuldip S Attalia

Too Often ...

Too Often we Don't Realize What We Have Until It's Gone…
Too Often we are Too Stubborn To Say, Sorry … I Was Wrong…
Too Often It Seems We Hurt The Ones Closest To Our Heart …
And We Let the Most Foolish Things Tear Us Apart …

Hamare Dil Mein Dharkan ...

Hamare Dil Mein Dharkan Aap Ki Sunahi Dethi Hai …
Aankho Mein Surat Aap Ki Dekhai Dethi Hai …
Chalte Tho Hum Hai … Lekin …
Jab Mur’ke Dekhte Hain…
Tab Parchayee Aap Ki Dekhai Dethi Hai …

Unki Ek Yaad ...

Unki Ek Yaad Bechain Kar Jathi Hai …
Har Cheez Mein Unki Surat Nazar Aati Hai …
Aisa Hal Kiya Unhaine Pyar Mein Hamara …
Ke Nind Aati Hai Tho Ankhen Bura Maan Jathi Hain …

Woh Kitaab Hain Hum ...

"Galat Nahi Ke Zamane Mein Lajawaab Hain Hum …
Samajh Saka Nah Koi …
Woh Kitaab Hain Hum …"
