Tujhe yaad kar liya hai
Aayat ki tarah
Kaayum tu ho gayi hi
Rivayat ki tara
Tujhe yaad kar liya hai
Marne talak rahegi
Tu aadat ki tarah
I’ve memorised you
like a holy verse.
For me you’ve now become
like a ritual.
I’ve memorised you;
until the moment I die, you’ll remain
like a habit of mine.
Deep down, you understand me, you know I adore you. You are not only something that is mine, you are me myself.
Eventually soulmates meet, for they have the same hiding place.
If I had my life to live again, I’d find you sooner.
Until the lion learns how to write, every story will glorify the hunter.
We promise forever in a world where even life is temporary.
If you want to forget something or someone, never hate it, or never hate him/her. Everything and everyone you hate is engraved upon your heart; if you want to let go of something, if you want to forget, you cannot hate.
“When you love yourself, you don’t even have to think about how to be yourself –
it just happens. “
“I regretted not being kinder while we still had time. That was all. I wish I had told him he was worth the Earth and the stars and that I loved him. I wish I had reminded him of it every day and night. That’s the thing. You always forget to remind people when you think you’ll have them forever.”
“The Buddhists say if you meet somebody and your heart pounds, your hands shake, your knees go weak, that’s not the one. When you meet your ‘soulmate’ you’ll feel calm. No anxiety, no agitation.”
