2012: The year of the DRAGON

                       Shuru hua jo saal, tha tab aknho mein sapne aur man mein tha vishwas
                 Shadiyon ka mausam tha, naye safar ka agaman,
         Dil phudkta bhi tha, machlta bhi tha, 
Fiza tho rangeen thi, sapne bhi beshumaar the,
                 Ek anokhe bandhan ki shurath hui, umeed se umang bandh gaya,
              Do maheeno ka wo pyaar rahega us khuda pe udhaar.
Asha ki nayya jispe thi mein savar, le chala mujhe wo saath samandar paar. 
Raste mein aye kuch adchan par saathi na sang diya bara bar,
Thi mein azad apni duniya mein, pankh jaise nikal ho waise, 
Dil tha halka, ane wala kal tha niraala,
Thand ne kiya tha mujhe behaal par kam na hua josh,
Do maheeno ka wo daav rahega us khuda pe udhaar.


Anjaan duniya mein mile kuch jaane pehchane dost,
Akele rehne ka bhi tha kuch alag hi maza,
Suraj ko taak thi mein dair raath tak, rut ta tha jab wo mujse, karti mein minnat,
Goomi mein har kahi, jaam piya har koi, afsoos kiya na kuch bhi,
Wapas ana pad jab, dil ke ek kone mein basaya har saugaad,
Do maheeno ka wo uphaar rahega us khuda pe udhaar.

 

Alag duniya thi maine dekhi, alag logo se thi mein mili, 
Wapas jo ayi, na samjhi mein, ke apne paraye hogaye the ya mein parayi ho chali thi,
 Mann bechain rehta tha, na jaane kya chata tha, 
Pareshaniyon se phir hua aisa milan, bhawarn mein phasi tho dosto se bhi hui ghutan,
Laut ne ka rasta talash ne nikhli mein, apna kehnoko tho yaha pe kuch bhi na raha,
Do maheeno ki wo tadap rahega us khuda pe udhaar. 

Khudh pe jo rehta tha itna vishwaas, aaj andhero se hun karti mein samna,
Chah rahi na kisi cheez ki, umeed ka daman maine kardiya tyaag,
Har kisise se ho gayi mujhe nafrat, rango se bhi ho gaya parheez,
Kuch logo pe kiya maine waqt barbaad, kuch logo se saha maine backwaas,
Naye dost banaye, naye rishte jataye, dil na behela, aansoon na ruke,
Do maheeno ki wo niraasha rahega us khuda pe udhaar.

Dilon me tum apni betabiyan leke chal rahe ho,to zinda ho tum
Nazar me khwaabon ki bijliyan leke chal rahe ho,to zinda ho tum
Hwa ke jhokon ke jaise aazad rehno sekho
Tum ek dariya ke jaise lehron mein behna sekho
Hr ek lamhe se tum milo khole apni baahein
Hr ek pal ek nya sama dekhe nigahein
Jo apni ankhon mein hairanian leke chal rahe ho,to zinda ho tum
Dilon mein tum apni betabian leke chal rahe ho,to zinda ho tum


2011 has been a mixed year for me. Some aspirations came true, some dreams shattered. I saw love fail me and I saw me failing love. Met some amhazing people, made some new friends and travelled around quite a bit. All in all I collected several memories. I'm thankful for the things that have happened to me this year. Hopefully I've learnt something from all of it and embrace the new year as an old friend and not a scorned memory. I sit today, having planned out nothing for tomorrow, which apart from the New Year, also happens to be my B'day so I feel I've hit rock bottom. I can't let the New Year ride in this way and I can only wish for a miracle to make this dismal mood go away. 2012 is told to be the year of the dragon in the Chinese calendar, I'm not even one-quarter Chinese but three quarters a dragon and she needs to get back to be herself again. 2012 better be a good year, IT HAS TO, there is no other way it can be. I look forward to the new year a lot is going to change both professionally and personally.

      May the new year ring in happiness, love and peace to all of us.


 ευτυχισμένο το νέο έτος
   

P.S. I couldn't continue with my own wordings for November and December, it's just too raw and painful so leaned on Javed Sahab's lyrics to guide me through them. I'm sure the last para clashes with the previous five, not to forget the grammatical and syntatical errors I might have made.

P.P.S The writing on top of the signature means 'Happy New Year' in Greek.   

P.P.P.S: Did any of you notice the Santa cap on the VLC player icon....I looooooved it :D.

@All sorry for being late.

@Prads: The errors are important, if the brain is doing an auto correct everytime you read a sentence you lose the flow. And you missed to wish me for my B'day :"(

@Rahul: Thanks buddy, but I needed help with corrections :(

@Maiths: Happy new year to you as well.

@Dr Pankaj: Thank you so much for the warm wishes. Have a great year ahead :D
