Thank You-Led Zeppelin

If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.

Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.

Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.

And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.

Friend in need....

I have this friend, whom I have known for almost 7 years. He is 4 years younger to me and a bachelor.

When we had first met, I was unmarried too. I remember how I yearned for company during the dull days of 2007-2008. This guy was always there to give me company...well..almost always!! We used to visit sidy bars and drink to our hearts fill. I can never thank him enough for being there when I needed someone to talk to.
Then I got married in 2009, natural order of things prevailed and and my outings with him/other guy friends became less regular.
Now, I have always believed that after 26 a normal person starts feeling lonely..even in a crowd. There is a hole created, even though friends and family are around. Only a wife can fill that hole. From the time you realize that this vacuum exists to the time you get married is when a person needs company desperately.
I have been through that in 2008-2009, and my friend is going through that now.
So, I make it a point to meet up with him whenever I can and spend some time over drinks...

After all, a friend in need....is a friend indeed :)

Harsha Bhogle-MI vs KKR 24th April 2013

Another gem by Harsha Bhogle yesterday..

Yesterday was Sachin's 40th bday and the crowd yelled like mad when he came out to bat.
Sachin was at the non striker end and Balaji was bowling to Dwayne Smith. Smith played with soft hands and the ball landed near forward shortleg. Tendulkar gave the go ahead since a run was on and he would run towards the danger end.
Tendulkar and Balaji started sprinting...Tendulkar to complete the run, Balaji towards the ball.In the process, Balaji overtook Sachin and crossed his path and leaped towards the ball. Sachin now was blocked by Balaji and he frantically changed his direction and leaped towards the crease. Balaji collected the ball and had a shy at the stumps. The ball missed the stumps by a whisker and Sachin was home..at this very moment Harsha Bhogle said "Well...Balaji just stopped himself from becoming the most unpopular Knight rider tonight"

Superb!!

MI vs Sach

Yesterday MI suffered another humiliating defeat.. This time it was DD that spoiled MIs party. Last time it was RR. Sachin made 50 odd at a strike rate of 110, which was poor, considering that 331 runs were scored in 220 balls.
After the match, I was dejected and started pondering over the sorry state of affair of the MI team.

However I soon realized that I follow the MI team and try and watch every match only because Sachin is a part of the squad. I am sure that millions of others do the same.

Watching Tendulkar in action is a privilege of our times. whether he scores 5 or 50 doesnt matter, atleast not to me!! I am just happy to see him play!!

Meethi Boliyan

Kuch lamhe thhe
Alsaaye se
Bharmaaye se
Fiza mein
Kabhi sehme se
Muskaate
Jaana kidhar
Na Jaane

Meethi boliyan sun lo
Aasmani rangon ki
Meethi boliyan sun lo
Bezubaani lamhon ki
Girte sambhalte chalte ladkhadaye
Haan magar ye honsla na dagmagaye
Armaano ke patang ko udaayen
Udaayen...

Aye zindagi hamen sohbaton ka nasha hai
Yeh sohbatein yaaron ki
Aye zindagi hame hosh ki na tu dava de
Dua de, dua de

Meethi boliyan sun lo
Aasmani rangon ki
Meethi boliyan sun lo
Bezubaani lamhon ki

Sapnon ke peechhe chale,
Raahon mein hai yaadon ka pehra
Sulga ke (sulga ke) kaali si raat (kaali si raat)
Laayenge ye ujla savera
(Ujla savera...)

Girte sambhalte chalte ladkhadaaye
Haan, magar ye hausla na dagmagaaye
Armaanon ki patang ko udaayein
Udaayein..

Aye zindagi hamen sohbaton ka nasha hai
Yeh sohbatein yaaron ki
Aye zindagi hame hosh ki na tu dava de
Dua de, dua de

Meethi boliyan sun lo
Aasmani rangon ki
Meethi boliyan sun lo
Bezubaani lamhon ki
