Mirza Ghalib


1. Koi ummeed bar naheen aatee (No hope comes my way)
Koi soorat nazar naheen aate (No visage shows itself to me)
2. Maut ka ek din mu’ayyan hai (That death will come one day is definite)
Neend kyon raat bhar naheeh aatee? (Then why does sleep evade me all night?)
3. Aage aatee thee haal-e-dil pe hansee (I used to laugh at the state of my heart)
Ab kisee baat par naheen aatee (Now no one thing brings a smile)
4. Jaanta hoon sawaab-e-taa’at-o-zahad (Though I know the reward of religious devotion)
Par tabiyat idhar naheen aatee (My attention does not settle in that direction)
5. Hai kuch ‘eisee hee baat jo chup hoon (It is for these reasons that I am quiet)
Warna kya baat kar naheen aatee? (If not, would I not converse with you?)
6. Kyun na cheekhoon ki yaad karate hain (Why should I not remember you?)
Meree aawaaz gar naheen aatee (Even if you cannot hear my lament)
7. Daagh-e-dil gar nazar naheen aata (You don’t see the anguish in my heart)
Boo bhee ‘ei chaaraagar ! naheen aatee (O healer, the scent of my pain eludes you)
8. Ham wahaan hain jahaan se hamko bhee (I am now at that point)
Kuchch hamaaree khabar naheen aatee (That even I don’t know myself)
9. Marte hain aarzoo mein marne ki (I die in the hope of dying)
Maut aatee hai par naheen aatee (Death arrives and then never arrives)
10. Kaaba’a kis munh se jaaoge 'Ghalib' (How will you face Mecca, Ghalib)
Sharm tumko magar naheen aatee (When shame doesn’t come to you)

When, I was a Kid

There was a time, When 2 bucks in my pocket used to make me the richest man in town. When i was an explorer on my bicycle. When i had a bag with magical box.   When Dad used to be a super hero. When Mom used to be the best lady in the world. When my teacher was the only Einstein, he knew the answers to my all textbook questions. When i used to cry touching a hot pan. When pain meant a mosquito bite. When i used to fall while racing on streets. When power cut was the fun time. When getting wet in rain was fun. When i was a day dreamer. When i was innocent. There used to be a time when i was a Kid. Now, Money is not enough. I have a bag but no magic box. I have lots of desires and expectations. I am not satisfied. I laugh but not happy. I cry but no tears. I have pain that hurts. I miss peoples. I fell in love. I am sinful. Now, I am a Man.

The Conscience of a Hacker

By, The Mentor, Written on January 8, 1986 Another one got caught today, it's all over the papers. "TeenagerArrested in Computer Crime Scandal", "Hacker Arrested after Bank Tampering"... Damn kids. They're all alike. But did you, in your three-piece psychology and 1950's technobrain,ever take a look behind the eyes of the hacker? Did you ever wonder whatmade him tick, what forces shaped him, what may have molded him? I am a hacker, enter my world... Mine is a world that begins with school... I'm smarter than most ofthe other kids, this crap they teach us bores me... Damn underachiever. They're all alike. I'm in junior high or high school. I've listened to teachers explainfor the fifteenth time how to reduce a fraction. I understand it. "No, Ms.Smith, I didn't show my work. I did it in my head..." Damn kid. Probably copied it. They're all alike.

Shayari

Abhi bhi chaat par baitha karta hun main, Tere bareen meen ghantoon socha karta hun main. Kabhi ankhoon se sitaare jhalak jaate haan, Jaab tujhe chandni meen dhunda karta hun main.
