Who doesn't know Mareez? Recently i was going through his collection of Gazal, nazam etc. -- "Aagman". Few lines from "Parvardigaar De".
Bas e’tli samaj mane’ parvardigaar de’,
sukh jyare’ jyaan male’ tyaan badhaanaa vichaar de’.
Aaveene’ aangali maa takora rahee gayaa, sankoch aatlo naa koi bandh dwar de'.
Pithha maa maarun maan satat haajaree thee chhe,
masjid maa roj jaun to kon aavkaar de’!
Aa naanaa naanaa dard to thaatan nathee sahan, de’ e’k mahaan dard ane’ paaravaar de.
my favourite lines by Mareez..
" Khud ne kharaab kahevaani himmat nathi thati, tethij badhaa kahe chhe, ke jamaano kharaab chhe."
Sorry for typos.
" hun aavyo aa bhoomi par shene kaaje
Hun takyo aa bhoomi par shene kaje?
Unnat mastake
Sajal nayane,
Dil kholi,
Bahoo prasaari
rahyo saune mate
tethij to
saue sahyo mane mare kaaje."
Julie Andrews turns 69 -
To commemorate her 69th birthday on October 1, actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall for the benefit of the AARP. One of the musical numbers she performed was "My Favorite Things" from the legendary movie "Sound Of Music".
Here are the lyrics she used:
Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting,
Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings,
Bundles of magazines tied up in string,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Cadillacs and cataracts and hearing aids and glasses,
Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses,
Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings,
These are a few of my favorite things.
When the pipes leak,
When the bones creak,
When the knees go bad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don't feel so bad.
Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions,
No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions,
Bathrobes and heating pads and hot meals they bring,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Back pains, confused brains, and no fear of sinnin',
Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinnin',
And we won't mention our short shrunken frames,
When we remember our favorite things.
When the joints ache,
When the hips break,
When the eyes grow dim,
Then I remember the great life I've had,
And then I don't feel so bad.
(Ms. Andrews received a standing ovation from the crowd that lasted over four minutes and repeated encores.)
