Its funny that wherever we see a traffic police there is bound to be some form of bribery going on. And if you get time to chat up a traffic constable then you get to hear some really weird stuff. Stuff like, whenever some one breaks the signal and they cant that person all they can say is “sharam nahi ati *()^&*(^#*(@&#!(*&.” I mean arent they the ones who are supposed to stop people from doing this? Why curse them? and when they catch them instead of a challan its sweet talking the offender into giving them a bribe.
I think we should have a special police force like the ones that patrol the middle eastern countries. Only then shall they all stop acting in this fashion.

yeh hai meri kahani
khamosh zindagani
sannata keh raha hai
kyun zulm seh raha hai
ek dastaan purani
tanhayi ki zubani
her zakham khil raha hai
kuch mujh se keh raha hai
chubtay kantay yadoon ke daaman say chunta hoon
girti deewaron ke aanchal mai zinda hoon
bass yeh meri kahani
benishaan nishaani
ek darr beh raha hai
kuch mujh se keh raha hai
chubtay kaanten yadoon ke daaman se chunta hoon
girti deewaron ke aanchal mein zinda hoon
(john’s Part)..
bajay pyaar ki shabnum mere gulistaan mein
baraste rehte hain har simt maut ke saye
siyahiyon se ulajh padti hain meri aankhein
koi nahi .. koi bhi nahi jo batlaye
kitni der ujalon ki raah dekhe
koi nahi hai koi bhi nahi
na pass na durr
yeh pyaar hai
dil ki dharkan
apni chahat ka jo ellan kiye jaati hai
zindagi hai jo jiye jaati hai
khoon k ghoont peay jaati hai
khwaab aankhon se siye jaati hai
ab na koi paas hai
phir bhi ehsaas hai
yahiaon mai uljhi padi
jeene ki ek aas hai
yadoon ka jungle yeh dil
kaanton se jal thal yeh dil
chubtay kaanten yadoon ke daaman se chunta hoon
girti deewaron ke aanchal mein zinda hoon

Kabhi, mai na chahun koi khushi
(never have I wished for happiness) - q

(nor do I wish to live this life) - q
mere dil me teri kamee
(my heart is lacking your presence) - q
Har sama, har pal hai koi kadam
(every moment, every second there is a step to take) - q
Har dil ki chahat magan
(every heart’s wish is bliss) - q
Dar dar ke guzray janam
(lifetimes have passed in fear) - q
Junglon aur samundaron mai samee
(it exists in the depths of the forests and oceans) - rup

Iss haseen samay ki ye rahat samaj me anay lagee
(I’m just starting to understand the freedom of this beautiful moment) - q
banjaay gee ye khushi, miljae gee ye khushi

(this will become my foundation for life) - q
Kabhi mai chahoon sab ke liye,
(Sometimes, I wish for everyone) - q
khul jaye dil me chupay, chotay chotay gham ke gilay
(People will bring out their small complaints that keep them sad) - q
oh kabhi, mai chaoon tere liye,
(Sometimes, I wish on your behalf) - q
mai chahoon mere liye, jo gaon sab ke liye
(I wish for myself, What I sing about for everyone) - q
Junglon aur samundaron mai samee

Maersk Sealand. Some really weird policy they have. They come to an insitute that throws out MBA grads and after they have conducted the first two tests they take the courtesy to inform the entrants that it is only for those people who are of 24 years of age. Now how can MBA grads be of that age? Its virutually impossible, unless one is a “child prodigy”. And from the company’s perspective it is really dumb as i knew more than half the people taking the second test were already eliminated due to the age restriction.
really weird!

I guess being rich and having money is not everything in life, one has to enjoy what one does.
Do read on the whole story for the full perspective.
One day a fisherman was lying on a beautiful beach, with his fishing pole propped up in the sand and his solitary line cast out into the sparkling blue surf. He was enjoying the warmth of the afternoon sun and the prospect of catching a fish.
About that time, a businessman came walking down the beach, trying to relieve some of the stress of his workday. He noticed the fisherman sitting on the beach and decided to find out why this fisherman was fishing instead of working harder to make a living for himself and his family.
“You aren’t going to catch many fish that way,” said the businessman to the fisherman, “you should be working rather than lying on the beach!”
The fisherman looked up at the businessman, smiled and replied, “And what will my reward be?”
“Well, you can get bigger nets and catch more fish!” was the businessman’s answer.
“And then what will my reward be?” asked the fisherman, still smiling.
The businessman replied, “You will make money and you’ll be able to buy a boat, which will then result in larger catches of fish!”
“And then what will my reward be?” asked the fisherman again.
The businessman was beginning to get a little irritated with the fisherman’s questions. “You can buy a bigger boat, and hire some people to work for you!” he said.
“And then what will my reward be?” repeated the fisherman.
The businessman was getting angry. “Don’t you understand? You can build up a fleet of fishing boats, sail all over the world, and let all your employees catch fish for you!”
Once again the fisherman asked, “And then what will my reward be?”
The businessman was red with rage and shouted at the fisherman, “Don’t you understand that you can become so rich that you will never have to work for your living again! You can spend all the rest of your days sitting on this beach, looking at the sunset. You won’t have a care in the world!”
The fisherman, still smiling, looked up and said, “And what do you think I’m doing right now?”

5 rupee ki qulfi, 20 rupee ke aam,
Chal meri sawari hindustan,
Hindustan ki pehli galli,
Us main rehta liaquat ali,
Liaquat ali ko goli lagi,
Sari duniya rone lagi,
Rote rote bhook lagi,
Kha lo beta moongphalli,
Moongphalli main dana nahi,
Hum tumhare nana nahi,
Nana gaye dilli,
Dilli se laye billi,
Billi ne diye bache,
Allah mian sache,
Sache sache jainge,
Client ko project de kar ayeinge,
Client ka demagh khali,
Uski harqatien 100 nakhre wali,
Ik nakhra toot gaya,
Client ka munh sooj gaya,
Project haat se nikal gaya,
Kaam sara doob gaya,
Paisa sara lut gaya,
Show khatam ho gaya……..

HP? People would ask who is HP, HP printers………..well more ardent followers of HP would shout out aloud its Harry potter, The boy who lived…….
It’s quite exciting to see the concept of Harry Potter being so successfully accepted on this part of the world. Its amazing to see the number of fans HP has made in
Pakistan.
Pakistan saw HP hit in with the launch of the 1st three books and its initial movies. Then onwards it’s been HP books, bags, stationary, bed linen and what not. Though I admit I found HP more interesting to read than the Lord Of The Rings, and may I also note here that LOTR has enthralled a certain age group of readers while HP caters to all the age groups. It’s been some time since HP became a hit here; it was like wild fire taking out a forest of dry trees. To drill in the point we saw local copies made on the HP theme with Barry trotter being the hero, and then we had Urdu translations of HP also.
But this all seems history now, as books four and five came out and rekindled the flame. I remember that I downloaded the e-book of HP book five from an underground warez site and read it on my pc as it wasn’t available and at a few stores where it was available it was the original version which was quite expensive because of the demand it had created. Finally when I did get hold of the paperback version, that even from an under the table deal, as local pirated copies were banned, which was another first as I don’t remember any book’s pirated version being banned in
Pakistan.
Now as the world queues up for the release of the HP book six,
Pakistan for once surprisingly queued up at the same time for the book as well. The launch of the new book was on the same day here as worldwide, which is quite surprising and yet a positive sign for book lovers. The HP fan club in
Pakistan can be measured by the fact that Liberty Books had a huge amount of pre-bookings for it as did Agha’s supermarket.
And I would end on the note that even though people have debated over the role books will play in front of the computer; I still say that as long as writers come up with new themes to write upon books shall never be obsolete. HP mania verifies my point.

Paki Music scene has improved immensely in the last few years, thanx to the new channels and the unlimited opportunities they throw. i love the new bands erupting on the scene. bands like raeth, siege, and some old bands are coming up with gr8 songs like beirut by strings.
We only need to look towards the Indian movie songs to realize that the number of Pakistanis doing songs from them is increasing.
