The Cow (Chapter 2, Verses 264, Holy Koran)

I ask for refuge to Allah from Satan the exiled evildoer.
In the name of Allah the Kind and the Merciful Giver.

O the believers! Don't make your charity
Worthless by reproach and injury
Like them who spend their property
To show they are better
And do not believe in Allah and the life-after
So they are like a smooth rock with earth upon it
Then a heavy rain falls upon it
Consequently it leaves the rock hard and bare
So it's loud and clear
They will be unable to get benefit from their earnings
And Allah doesn't guide the unbelieving human beings.

We Just Come Here And Go - Original By Rabindranath Tagore

We just come here and go
And go with the time's flow!

We only see things
And touch while going
And look back crying!

Only new bleak hopes
Take our life forward!
We can see false hopes
If we look backward!

Broken strength carries endless desires
Both bright and dark
So broken output is obtained from
Do or die work!

We sail our broken boat in the sea with goods!
Our broken language can't express all moods!

O my love is another name for pain

O my love is another name for pain
It has taken control over my brain
It drives me crazy again and again!

She attracted me by wild temptation
She has broken my heart by deception
But she is still my infatuation!

Now it makes no difference where I am
As if I keep waiting in traffic jam
And I can see her with my brain's webcam!

Now her irresistible attraction
Has driven me into defamation
How can I get rid of this condition!

O my God knows I have done nothing wrong
But without her my nights and days seem long
Is she a human and I am King Kong!

The Modern Barbarians

As if I am in Jurassic Age
A Tyrannosaurus Rex is chasing me now
I have hidden in a cave and trapped
I don't want to die so soon
I want to live a long life O God

As if I am in the Stone Age
I am fighting with a mammoth
With my family for my living
Risking our lives

As if I am in the Ice Age
I am covering up my body
With skins of animals
But still I am freezing to death
I need someone to warm me up

As if I am in the Dark Age
The barbarians are trying to kill me
Because I speak the truth

Now you are both my friend and foe!

Now you are both my friend and foe!
Still leaving you is sweet sorrow!
Oops! You can change my tomorrow!

Still kissing you is a sweet dream
Though my love for you is extreme!
My thought goes wild like a blue-film!

Still your presence makes me love-sick
But our love-making’s chance is bleak!
I can’t read your mind; it’s all Greek!

You want to see tears on my cheek
So I am on love’s frozen peak
And my friend is a ganja’s stick!

Baby, make me believe in love.
Have you not hated me enough?
Please lock me up with love’s hand-cuff!

Wisdom

Wisdom is the building blocks of Truth.
And it is the best charity.

Knowing and understanding are different awareness.
Understanding is superior to knowing;
One who understands knows as well
But one who knows doesn’t necessarily understand!

To understand is to know something in detail.
It involves input of information and their processing in brain
In other words it involves thinking.
Whereas knowing
Is the result of some input of information in the brain.
Knowing is an outcome of observation or feeling
But understanding is an outcome of thought.

I Want A Deer Of Gold - Original By Rabindranath Tagore

I want a deer of gold I want her anyway!
No matter you are who or whatever you say!
I want her who steals my mind but then runs away!

She becomes startled, runs away, no one can capture her!
If I have chance to touch her she goes away further!
Whether I will get her or not I will chase her!

You buy the things that are available in the market!
Whereas I hanker after the thing that no one can get!

I have lost everything I had for my yearnings for her!
My capital is running short but it doesn't matter!
I have no sorrow in my heart and I smile forever!

Say no to drugs

My friends, Say no to drugs.
Drugs are life-eating bugs!
Say yes to God; surrender to win.
Say, in your home God now I am in!
Without God the end is hopeless
And with God the hope is endless!
Try to avoid your bad company.
Don't hanker after excess money.
Don't do anything that may trigger your obsession
"Easy does it" so you should control your emotion!
Write something good on life's every page
And remember "First dose does the damage".
The path of recovery journey is slippery -
Please be careful, don't slip, don't give up and don't hurry.

Abortion And Child Killing

Abortion and child killing
Are forbidden in Islam
Cause it is an act of outright cruelty

Abortion is a grievous sin
But in case of rape it is not
Since both the mother and the child
Will be unhappy
If the mother does not go for abortion
However the mother should pray to God
For the child’s welfare in afterlife
And ask for forgiveness

If a mother have had abortion
Or kill her child
She should pray to God
“O the Lord of the worlds
The Greatest Merciful
The Best Merciful
Please give my child

Jerusalem

The holy land of children of Israel
Has been staining with the blood
Of innocent people for such along time!

The Jews, the Christians and the Muslims
Should live in peace and harmony
Side by side on the much disputed land
Since it’s holy to all of them.

The mosque of the prophets
Should be extended
With a view to make space
For all the three adherents of faith.

I know it’s a small piece of land
But we can solve the problem
By building skyscrapers.

O Jerusalem can’t you see
Your children are fighting against each other?
