[ : Deana:] - Hi Nida!

[Guest guest]

[ Dhoop mein niklo,

ghataon mein naha kar dekho,

zindagi kya hai,

kitabon ko hata kar dekho! ]

 

Come out and dance in the Shine of the day,

let the body soak in the cloud and the rain!

 

To feel the real life,

move the DEAD books out of the Way!

 

 

 

[woh sitara hai

chamakne do yun hi ankhon mein;

kya zaroori hai

use jism banakar dekho!]

 

It is the Pure LIGHT,

let it shine in your eyes, in your soul... in your Heart!

why must you make it an idol,

....give it a shape or Form!

 

 

 

 

[paththaron mein bhi zuban hoti hai,

dil hote hain,

apne ghar ki dar-o-deewar saja kar dekho!]

 

Every stone sings,

vibrates with life, every stone has a spirits!

Touch it, feel it,

....try touching, adorning it with a lover's heart!

 

 

 

[faasla nazaron ka dhoka bhi tho ho sakta hai

woh mile ya na mile haath badha kar dekho ]

 

What you see as vast Separation,

can just be a visual Illusion!

 

Who knows whether you will meet it or Not,

....it looks so Far!

Maybe, this distance is just a delusion of sight,

just try to open your heart to it ...try Spreading your Arms!
