duboya mujhko 'hoanay' ne! mei na hoti tou kya hota?
i was ready to tell
the story of my life
but the ripple of tears
and the agony of my heart
wouldn't let me
i began to stutter
saying a word here and there
and all along i felt as tender as a crystal
ready to be shattered
in this stormy sea we call life
all the big ships, they come apart
board by board
how can i survive
riding a lonely
little boat
with no oars
and no arms
my boat did finally break
by the waves
and i broke free
as i tied myself
to a single board
though the panic is gone
i am now offended!
why should i be so helpless?
rising with one wave
and falling with the next
i don't know
if i am nonexisting
while i exist...
but i know for sure
when i am,
i am not!
but when i am not,
then i am!
since in this world
i have many times
like my own imagination,
died
and been born again
that is why
after a long agonizing life
as a hunter,
i finally let go
and got hunted down
and became free
credits probably go to Moulana Rumi (not sure!)

Beautiful ....!
amazing ....I say even the word" beautiful" does'nt cover the meaning it provides....
-Blessed blogging!
Very inspiring. Copied to a text file and saved in my computer's hard disk :)
And yep, that's from Rumi. (Nope, I am not that well-read, I only googled it! ;))
P.S. Love the title too (which comes from an all-times-favourite shair of mine)... Na tha kuch tou khuda tha, kuch na hota tou khuda hota... Duboya mujh ko honay ne, na hota mein tou kya hota... Simply brilliant!
