O soul! Believe in yourself

O soul! Why are you bleeding so much?
Had somebody hurt you?
Just like for his behaviour,
A gruelling dog is beaten by his master.

O soul! Why are you so splenetic?
Had somebody irritated you?
Just like that nursery mistress,
Who screams uselessly at the kinder garden students.

O soul! Why are you so scared?
Had somebody scared you?
Just like an atrocious dream,
That hinders a child’s sleep at night.

O soul! Why are you so anxious?
Had somebody’s thought made you anxious?
Just like a Jinx’s presence in life,
That makes one’s life full of anxiety.

O soul! Why are you all alone?
Had somebody left you all alone?
Just like in autumns,
Leaves shed down leaving the bare branches alone.

O soul!
Don’t think so much,
Don’t feel so much,
Don’t speak so much,
Just believe in yourself and grab your dream!!

A New Dawn

Every dawn is a new hope
Every shinning ray unfolds unlimited scope
To welcome life in a lively way
To cherish happiness and make it stays
When the mild breeze takes your heart away
When you spread your arms like the shinning rays
All the challenges seem melting away slowly
All invisible hopes and spirits emerge gradually
Turn and look at dancing trees
Turn to listen to birds and bumbling bees
They altogether have a different story to tell
They rejuvenate you and cast a spell
It’s now that you are ready to run today
It’s now that you shall run faster than yesterday
It’s again an endless rat-race that you must win
But don’t forget the voice of nature in this world’s din.

What is Life?

Who they say has time for you
Who damn cares whether this is false or true
This is when I thought things must change Some call it mystery, some call it destiny
Some call it journey that is full of irony
Sailing across the ocean I always feel
Sailing through those precious moments if I could steal
That one precious moment that changed my life
That now I realize made my dreams alive
It was when the thought was not my own
It was like something hit me as hard as stone
In dust laden days heat
In everyday’s work emotions are trampled under feet

This is what told me that success is not merely arrange
Not a range that can be measured
Not a value that can be treasured
If something shall be till the end of life
If something that sustains after your life
Is not your rat-race that you probably won?
Is not a wealth in cash worth a million tonne?
But a single gesture or help you offered
At the right time to the needy or any one shattered
This is truly we wealth you literally conquered
Inscribed shall be your name in the heart of people!
