Blessed are those who find men worthy of speaking with
Friends are aplenty, but a friend in intellect is worth many a friend at tea
Move on…
जब ख़ुद, ख़ुशी से, उम्मीदों की डोर छोड़ कर चलना सीख ले तू, ऐ जलील
Mohamed Nawaz Haindaday – November 2023 (2)
जब दूसरों के ग़लतियों को, या कोताइयों को नज़रअंदाज़ कर लेना सीख ले तू ऐ जलील
यकीनन खुशहाल होगा, पुरसुकून होगी ज़िंदगी
ख़ुद की राह अकेले चलने से कोई रोक तब होगी नहीं कोई
एक वक़्त तक ही साथ देता है कोई किसी का
चाहे औलाद हो या अपना और कोई
हर किसी का मुक़द्दर उसका होता है, जुड़ा नहीं तुझसे कभी
मत सोच ज़्यादा, रुक नहीं अब और
वक़्त किसी के लिए ठहरता नही, वक़्त निकल जाए तो कोई और भी साथ देगा नहीं
A day in the life of the common man
If every waking day were to be spent in the worry for its passage
Mohamed Nawaz Haindaday – November 2023 (1)
And in the worry of the day beyond, and so on and so forth
Where would that leave the time to enjoy the day as it passes?
Life beyond may possibly not see the rising sun of the day next
Worry, as hard as you may, shall not ensure
Either the rising sun of the day next or peace, if you survive today, in worry
Conundrum of Reality
On reflection, it seems that what comes to you unto others
Mohamed Nawaz Haindaday – (2023) October (2)
Is nothing but your failure to heed to reality
Perception of oneself shall not be acquiescence of the other
People, as they live today, are caught in the conundrum of existence and of the thereafter (not hereafter)
Nothing shall fail the heart more than the mind’s perception
Thus, best it is, to leave the heart out of the matters of the mind’s follies
A strong mind is the cure for the mindless conundrums
Fate be the taker of the fall, heart however, suffers ‘em all
कौन कहता है के ख़त्म होती हैं परेशानियाँ , शुकर करना ये है के क़ुवत है हम में कर गुज़र जाने की
और बढ़ने की हैं मुश्कीलात, हर नया मोड़ जब लेती है ज़िंदगी, क्यों ग़म लेता है तू ऐ जलील, तुझको तेरी परछाई बेहतर समझती है, काबिल तुझसे
मोहम्मद नवाज़ (जलील) Haindaday جلیل
Unfiinished business – constraint of time
Until what is in hand is done away with, which, ideally should have been done in the yesterday, the today will not be available to do justice for the morrow.
Nawaz Haindaday 2023 (52) 08-01
Irony of life
The realisation that what you thought was a sacrifice in life for the better good of others, was actually the biggest cruelty to your own self.
1 of 2022
कश्मकश में रहता है हर वक़्त क्यों
अपनी सोच पर तू क़ाबू कर ले ऐ कम-जलील
जद्दोजहद रोज़ करनी होगी तुझको खुद से ही
खुद पर फ़तह कर ले, जमाने से फिर तुझको कोई डर नहीं
O my uneasy mind, in conflict with itself
Indulge not in wavering thoughts
It’s a struggle everyday within yourself
The uneasy mind conquered, would have no fear of the pain that fate may bring about
The Reset – Lockdown Day #5
The human race perhaps perceived it’s infallibility. But great nations and their powers have met with fates they never perceived. History has, over the world’s existence, repeated itself innumerable times. And when the time comes, there occur changes to a set pattern; a reset.
In the busy chaotic way of life, none would have imagined a “reset” happening.
The lockdowns around the world would probably result in a reset of sorts.
Reset of the pace of work, reset in the manner of living, reset in the powers of the powerful nations and men, all but seems inevitable. Though none may realise, but if seen in the right perspective, maybe not now, maybe few months or a year later, there would have seeped in many changes.
Every individual would have to be objective in his own analysis of himself. There will be a reset. It perhaps has already been set in motion. It would be slow, unlike a reset in an electronic device or gadget; resets in human lives shall take some time to be seen,
For some, it would be good. For some, it would be painful. Some may not realise it for they were probably passive to their surroundings from the beginning.
But a reset it would be. Time, it is said, is the best healer. Likewise, time, is an agent of change. A reset is nothing but a change, a correction.
And that is to happen now, when the world at large is forced to stop, to allow a reset long overdue.
Knowledge-Wisdom
Wisdom are words spoken by the men in possession of knowledge.
Knowledge is an ocean, it’s depth unfathomable.
O ye who seeketh knowledge, I say to thee, I seeketh knowledge myself. Show me the path that leads into and unto the sea of knowledge, vast, deep and varied; for life would be well-lived, if on my last breath I were to say, O Lord, thank you for all the treasures of the knowledge of the world that you blessed me with!
