Tamanna

Our wishes, desires, and yearning keep us on move all the time. After all, what is man if not propelled by desires? The fulfillment of desire brings our journey to an end but the unfulfilled ones afford us a chance to understand life philosophically. Here is a small collection of verses around this theme. Hope you enjoy this.

dil chiz kya hai aap meri jaan lijiye

dil chiiz kya hai aap miri jaan lijiye bas ek baar mera kaha maan lijiye is anjuman men aap ko aana hai baar baar divar-o-dar ko ghhaur se pahchan lijiye maana ki doston ko nahin dosti ka paas lekin ye kya ki ghhair ka ehsan lijiye kahiye to asman ko zamin par utaar laaen mushkil nahin hai kuchh bhi agar thaan lijiye dil chiz kya hai aap meri jaan lijiye bas ek bar mera kaha man lijiye is anjuman mein aap ko aana hai bar bar diwar-o-dar ko ghaur se pahchan lijiye mana ki doston ko nahin dosti ka pas lekin ye kya ki ghair ka ehsan lijiye kahiye to aasman ko zamin par utar laen mushkil nahin hai kuchh bhi agar than lijiye
