The voices in my head

Who knows how many people live inside me?
They expand "me" and bring the wall closer.
It feels the wall will consume me.

Come over tonight
to stand between the wall and me.
Don't let "me" disappear in the wall.

Nothing is real but pain. Anyone who has felt pain, has seen two universes. The one that they could have been in, the one that feels real in the thought, and the another into which they are pulled. The one that seems real to the flesh. Buddha also observed this - nothing is universal but suffering, he said. We are born in suffering.

Both options are equivalent, and both options are immaterial. - Sage life

Ode to Persia

O Persia,
In your sweet land,
I have lost  myself,
I have found myself.

In the madness
Of my love for you,
I have discovered the meaning of
Truth, beauty and love.

ey zindagi

ऐ ज़िन्दगी! कभी फुर्सत में मिलेगी
तो फिर तुझसे दिल खोलके बात करेंगे
तेरा आना तो  कभी भूलता ही नहीं
तेरे जाने  को भी दिल खोलके याद करेंगे 

Fall leaves

Oh behold! there's Fall walking away
in its pretty dress
Both beautiful and sad at once.
It wants to invite the Spring
But it's knocking on winter's door!

(bulana toh bahaar ko chahta hai
par darwaza sardi ka khatkhata raha hai)

The discovery of self

कर्म किए जा, फल की चिंता मत कर ए इंसान

जैसा जैसा कर्म करेगा, फल देगा भगवान।।

- भगवतम् गीता 

(Keep doing your duty, don't worry about the results

God will bless you as per your deeds

- The Bhagwat Gita)

Gofta to bandegi kon koo bande parvar aiad

(You do your service and the rewards will follow)

- Hafez Shirazi

Man kheyli door raftam

Donbaale shoma geshtam

Khodam raa paida kardam

Va be vatanam bazgashtam

Hala montazer nimanam ke

Shoma be man khahi amad

Khodet raa paida khahi kard

Shoma ham baz khahi gasht

I came to a foreign land
Searching for you
I found myself
And went back

Now I don't wait for you
To come to me
I know you'll find yourself
And go back

हम बहुत दूर चलें आए
तुम्हेँ ढूँढ़ते हुए
ख़ुदको पा लिया
और वापस चलें आए

अब हम इंतज़ार नहीं करते
की आओगे एक दिन तुम
हम जानते है की तुम भी खुदको
ढूंढ़कर वापस चलें जाओगे
