It’s Robert Frost again! This time the poem The Road not Taken which is basically about the decisions we take, the choices we make and their impact on our lives. And, no matter how hard you try to escape, you always have to make a choice!

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

I couldn’t have come up with a better post on the eve of India’s independence day. Jinhe naaz hai hind par voh kahan hai by Rabbi Shergill. The song is very touching and tells the story of 4 unsung heroes of India in a remarkable manner.

The best part is the strumming of the National Anthem tune between the verses, which serves as the perfect melody between the thought provoking verses.

Lyrics of Bilqis Jinhe naaz hai hind par

Mera naam Bilqis Yakub Rasool
Mujhse hui bas ek hi bhool
Ki jab dhundte thhe vo Ram ko
To main khadi thhi, rah mein

There is a beautiful poem by Robert Frost which I read at some time in my childhood years. I have always remembered the beautiful lines – The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep. The never stopping, never retreating, just the will, persistence and courage to go on and on. Now, I guess that explains why I sleep late at night, doesn’t it? lol

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

A very beautiful and emotionally touching song this time. Mujhse naraz ho toh ho jao from the movie Papa Kehte hain sung by Sonu Nigam. Over the years, I had almost forgotten this song and when I recalled, the first thing I did was what you’re reading right now. This may just be called one of the best of Sonu Nigam’s songs.

Lyrics of Mujhse naraz ho toh ho jao
Mujhse naraz ho toh ho jao – 2
khud se lekin khafa khafa na raho
mujhse tum durr jao toh jao
aap apne se tum juda na raho
Mujhse naraaz ho toh ho jao
khud se lekin khafa khafa na raho
Mujhse naaraz ho toh ho jao

Think knowledge can help you make more money? Think again. You think facebook and twitter addicts have no life? You’re wrong. The reality is harsh, life’s unfair. So who would you rather be with, SEO, SMM or a web developer?

Something funny on marriage now. Looks quite true. 🙂

Before Marriage:

He: Yes. At last. It was so hard to wait.
She: Do you want me to leave?
He: NO! Don’t even think about it.
She: Do you love me?
He: Of course!
She: Have you ever cheated on me?
He: NO! Why you even asking?
She: Will you kiss me?
He: Yes!
She: Will you hit me?
He: No way! I’m not such kind of person!
She: Can I trust you?

After Marriage
Read from bottom to the top. You’ll get the clue.

Lyrics of Kabhi aana na

Kal yaadein yeh hum taaza rakhenge
kisi botal puraani mein
aur kholenge isey bas thora thora
khushi ya viraani mein
aur phone karenge hum bas match ke din
bahas karenge kaisa khela sachin
phir bolenge rakhate huee
kabhi aana na – 2
bhaabhi ko leke ghar pe mere tu
kabhi aana na – 2
kahaan gum gaya hai bhaai mere tu
