My Childhood



I grew up in india and I walked to school once I was grown up enough regardless of the weather and dinner time was at 7:30 PM and bed was 9:30 PM.
Eating out at a restaurant was a huge deal, that only really happened when it was a birthday or a very special occasion.
There was no such thing as fast food and having a bottle of Coke or a large milkshake from the milk bat was a real treat.
You took your school clothes off as soon as you got home and put on your home clothes.
 There was no talking or picking you up in the car, you walked or rode you bike! You got home did your chores and your homework before dinner.
Our house phone had a card attached and a rotary dial so there was no such things as private conservation!
We didn't have Hotstar, Amazon prime or Netflix, we had only  1 channel to watch and that was Doordarshan.
We played Cops & Robbers, Hide & Seek, Football, Naughts and Crosses, Cricket and any other games we could come up with ---

● Staying in the house was a PUNISHMENT and only thing we knew about "bored" was ---
     " You better find something to do before I find it for you! "

● We played music via a vinyl records and magnetic tapes.

● We went to local shop for grocery and candy used to be a couple of paise.

● We ate what mum made for dinner or we ate nothing at all and if we didn't eat our vegetables there was no dessert if at all there was something sweet at home.

● Bottle water is luxury, we drank from the tab.

● We weren't AFRAID of ANYTHING.

● We played till dark _ _ _ sunset was over alarm.

● If someone had a fight, that's what if was and we were friends again a week later, if not SOONER.

● We watched our MOUTHS around our elders because all of our aunts, uncles, grandpa's, grandma's,  AND our parents'best friends were all extensions of our PARENTS and you didn't want them telling your parents if you misbehaviour! or they would give you something to cry about.

● We respect the Police, Fireman, Ambulance workers, Teachers, Doctors and Nurses.

● We never answered back_ _ _ ever!!

● We got punishment at school for not doing homework, being late to class or being naughty.

There were the good days. So many kids today will never knew how it feels to be a real kid. I loved my childhood and all the friends I hung around with.

《Good Times》

Mera baad kis ko satao ge. Mujhe kis tarah sa mitao ge.

आंखो से दूर दिल के करीब था, मै तेरा और तू मेरा नसीब था। न कभी मिले न कभी जुदा हुए, रिश्ता हम दोनो का कितना अजीब था। अब मेरे बाद किस को सताओगे, मुझे किस तरह से मिटाओगे। काजल की लकीरे फिर खींचने लगी है, कल जो देखी थी परछाई आज हूबहू दिखने लगी है। बताओ मेरे बाद किस को सताओगे, मुझे किस तरह से मिटाओगे। तुम्हारा गुस्सा और मेरा प्यार एक ही तो जैसा है, ना तुम्हारा गुस्सा कम होता है, ना ही मेरा प्यार। अब मेरे बाद किस को सताओगे, मुझे किस तरह से मिटाओगे। बरबाद करना ही था तो किसी और तरीके से करते जिदंगी बनकर हमारी जिदंगी ही छीन ली तुमने। अब मेरे बाद किस को सताओगे, मुझे किस तरह से मिटाओगे। कैसे करू भरोसा गैरों के प्यार पर अपने ही मजा लेते है, अपनो की हार पर। बताओ मेरे बाद किस को सताओगे, मुझे किस तरह से मिटाओगे। -----------------------  मेरे बाद किस को सताओगे, मुझे किस तरह से मिटाओगे।

ये जो नींद तुझे इतनी प्यारी है

《ये जो नींद तुझे इतनी प्यारी है》 इक हवा छू कर गयी यही कही... वो लम्हा थम सा गया यही कही... कुछ कहा किसी ने यही कही...    कहा कुछ ऐसे कि------------                  ये जो नींद तुझे इतनी प्यारी है।          तेरे जागते सपनो का कया ही सवेरा है।                ये जो नींद तुझे इतनी प्यारी है।                ये जो नींद तुझे इतनी प्यारी है।                ये नींद वहाँ तक जा पहुंचे...            जिस नींद का सवेरा कही ओर होगा।         निकल पड़ेंगे किसी और ही सफर पर।         निकल पड़ेंगे किसी और ही सफर पर...      ...

You love me

      Your hate is saying you love me Your hate is saying you love me My innocent love is still in agreement with you And your haters are saying you love me ----- What are you proud of I have not cut a single moment without you If you have restlessness, I agree with you Your haters are saying you love me ----- You have never understood my love Dominate my love has been your misunderstanding ----- I am nothing for you But my whole where are you Your haters are saying you love me ----- I tried to solve it That those relationships lie ----- But I could not forget those licks on my cheeks You may have forgotten, but my heart is also poor Your haters are saying you love me ----- Thinking how many years have passed That you will come back sometime And I apologize for those misunderstandings Will convince you but you still have misunderstandings ----- And I believe you Your haters are saying you...
