Mere Watan

میرے وطن کے اداس لوگو *
نہ خود کو اتنا حقیر سمجھو *
کہ کوئی تم سے حساب مانگے *
خواہشوں کی کتاب مانگے *
نہ خود کو اتنا قلیل سمجھو *
کہ کوئی اٹھ کر کہے یہ تم سے *
وفائیں اپنی ہمیں لٹا دو *
وطن کو اپنے ہمیں تھما دو *
اٹھو اور اٹھ کے بتا دو ان کو *
کہ ہم ہیں اہل ایمان سارے *
نہ ہم میں کوئی صنم کدہ ہے *
ہمارے دل میں تو ایک خدا ہے *
میرے وطن کے اداس لوگو ۔۔۔
جھکے سروں کو اٹھا کے دیکھو *
قدم تو آگے بڑھا کے دیکھو *
ہے ایک طاقت تمہارے سر پر *
کرے گی سایہ جو ان سروں پر *
قدم قدم پر جو ساتھ دے گی *
اگر گرے تو سنبھال دے گی *
میرے وطن کے اداس لوگو ۔۔
اٹھو ، چلو اور وطن سنبھالو

Here it goes ...

Hello world,

Nothing is said that has not been said before ... Discovery consists of seeing what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought.

I've been trying for some time to develop a lifestyle that doesn't require my presence. I can't understand why a person will take a year to write a novel when he can easily buy one for a few dollars. Procrastination isn't the problem, it's the solution.

So procrastinate now, don't put it off.

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. Man is tormented by no greater anxiety than to find someone quickly to whom he can hand over that great gift of freedom with which the ill-fated creature is born. Well, if crime fighters fight crime and fire fighters fight fire, what do freedom fighters fight? They never mention that part to us, do they?

Now I know what a statesman is; he's a dead politician. We need more statesmen :)

The main things which seem important on their own account, and not merely as means to other things, are knowledge, art, instinctive happiness, and relations of friendship or affection.

Life is something that happens when you can't get to sleep ... think about it !!!
