The Scientist - Coldplay

The forever and ever superlative heartbreak song.

"Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are.
I had to find you, tell you I need you,
Tell you I set you apart.

Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions,
Oh lets go back to the start.
Running in circles, Comin' up Tails
Heads on a science apart.

Nobody said it was easy,
It's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be this hard.

Oh take me back to the start.

I was just guessin' at numbers and figures,
Pulling your puzzles apart.
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart.

And tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start.
Runnin' in circles, Chasin' up Tails
Comin' back as we are

Nobody said it was easy,
Oh it's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be so hard.

I'm goin' back to the start."

Things I Do




A pictoral summary of all the extracurricular things I do. The one in the center is closest to my heart. You'll probably be reading a whole another post about it soon...

Kabhi-Kabhi by Sahir Ludhianvi

One of my favorite verses of all times. I am proud to be able to read and understand it as it is.

कभी-कभी मेरे दिल में ख़्याल आता है...

कि जिन्दगी तेरी ज़ुल्फ़ों की नर्म छाओं में गुजरने पाती, सो शादाब हो भी सकती थी.
ये रंज--गम की स्याही जो दिल पे छाई है, तेरी नज़र की शुआओं में खो भी सकती थी.

मगर यह हो ना सका...

मगर यह हो ना सका और अब यह आलम है, कि तू नही, तेरा गम, तेरी जुस्तजू भी नही.
गुज़र रही है कुछ इस तरह जिन्दगी जैसे, इसे किसी के सहारे की आरजू भी नही.
ना कोई राह, मंज़िल, रौशनी का सुराग...भटक रही है अंधेरों में जिन्दगी मेरी.
इन्ही अंधेरों में रह जाऊंगा कहीँ खो कर, मैं जनता हूँ मेरी हम-नफज़,
मगर यूं ही, कभी-कभी मेरे दिल में ख़्याल आता है.
