Our India has roads and railways for miles n miles

Through grasslands, plateus, river banks, mountains n isles

Seeds if we plant; n trees grow to avenues form, on roads all main.

If corporates all, big and small, trees do plant n maintain;

An orchard huge, our country can become; hunger surely vanish will.

Then, miles of boulevards n avenues have we can; fruits will all over spill.

Railway lines for miles, can local trees grow, curry leaves, figs, drumsticks, sugar cane.

School children n unemployed youth can them water, to some incentives gain.

Corporates all, Tata, Godrej, Wadia can advertise their name, under "maintained by"

Imagine luscious mangoes, chickoos, guavas, oranges; needn't we then buy

Flowers, fruits, vegetables export we can; also wood we can,  have in ample

Can some corporate come forward, select an area; & at least lay out a sample.

Imagine this beautiful Motherland of ours; loaded with fruit laden trees;

I am a dreamer, but if turns this to reality; we can have oxygen, food, shade n cool breeze.

પાણી તો આગ બુઝાવે, પણ આં વર્ષા તો આગ લગાડે છે, આં તે કેવો સાવન

રિમઝીમ રિમઝીમ પડતી ફુહાર, તન-મનમાં આગ લગાડે, તરસાવે છે મને સાવન

કોયલના મધુર ગીત, એની કૂક, હૃદય માં મારા, જગાડે એક મીઠી હુક

માનો કહેતી હોય, ઝૂલો ઝૂલવા આવ જલ્દી, બીજું બધું, તું પડતું મુક

પ્રીતમ મારો આવતો નથી, તરસી ગયાં છે નૈન, બની ગયું છે આજે પાછું દિલ બેચેન.

સોહામણી આં ઋતુમાં, આં મસ્ત માહોલમાં , કોઈ ચોરી ગયું મારું ચૈન.

પિયા વિના , એના વિયોગમાં વરસે છે વર્ષા સંગ, આં આંખોથી આંસુ

તારા વિના ન સુર સૂઝે, ન રાગ; બોલ પ્રીતમ આપણે સાવનમાં કેમ ગાશું

આવી જા, આમ ન તરસાવ મને, કહે રાધિકા કાનાહને, ઓ પ્રીતમ પ્યારા,

આવીજા વૃંદાવન પાછો, યાદ કર ગ્વાલ-ગોપીઓને, યાદ કર એ પનઘટ, ઓ કાન્હાઈ મારા.

આ હા હા, આવી છે વસંત, લાવી છે સાથે, ફૂલોથી લદાયલા ઝાડપાન

માનો, મુરઝાઈ ગયેલી વડ વેલીઓ માં પુરાઈ ગયો હોય નવો પ્રાણ.

સૂર્ય પ્રકાશમાન છે, અને નીલ ગગન ચમકે છે; સ્વચ્છ છે આસમાન

હવામાં ખુશનુમા ફેલાઈ છે, ફૂલોની મહેક છે, પંખીઓ ની ચહેકમાં છે ગીત-ગાન

કળી ફૂલ બનવા તત્પર છે, કમળ માં આવશે ચાંદના ખીલવા સાથે જ જાન

ચાંદના મોહમાં, તત્પર છે ચકોર ખુશી ખુશી ન્યોછાવર કરવા પોતાના પ્રાણ.

વસંત લાવે દિલોમાં ખુશાલી ની હિલોલ; ચાલો કરીયે એનું સ્વાગત, સન્માન.

That day, three hundred and twenty nine precious, hopeful, innocent lives we lost

Passengers and crew all; an aircraft entire; unaccountable, was the cost

O Ahura bless those souls and their families to this irreparable loss bear.

Even today, sad I feel when visualize I, those crying relatives; their hope mixed with that scare.

What a drastic, horrible result it was, due to some people who were grossly mislead.

Happens this often, when illogical, lies, fear and hatred to weak minded people is fed.

Those who do these crimes heinous, prepared must be, for consequences dire

Burn have to in hell, all those people who misuse and play with ammunition and fire.

The theory of KARMA,  understand must, these misled individuals; use they must their mind.

Aware must be all those leaders, who inculcate such crimes n vulnerable poor find.

Ahura, bless every individual with Beh-man, the good mind, so all things, we do right.

Help the misled ones with a good, kind, compassionate mind, with Your divine light.

The vibrations of love n prayers reach far, really very very far

They help to soothe n heal, many a contused or festering scar.

The effects of love are immeasurable, there is no boundary or bar

Vibrations of love travel far n wide, faster than an aircraft or car.

Alzheimer's patients react to music n love, we all known this so far.

May love spread its wings far and wide; right up to the stars.

Ahura, please help us to remember only things good n forget all that is bad.

For good things make us feel positive n happy, whereas bad things make us sad.

Negative thoughts make us low feel, wish occurred never, they had

Drive easily they could, any sane and strong human weak or even mad.

Ahura help us become positive and strong; be we, a lass delicate or a weak lad.

Keep us away from company bad or people who are depressed and sad.

Or, so strong make us, that we help them to become strong n positive instead.

May dushmata, dujukt, duversta be gone; n humata, hukt, huvereshta please add.

THINK

How very commercial has become this world, changed have roles

Advertisement for foods are preferred over food for our souls

The community has lost its values high, its real "aatash", its fire

And sadly Bawal is preferred over Sandal wood for Padshah's fire

Lower values when n if promoted over higher ones, worries cause.

Please think about this; before you go ahead, please do pause.

Feed the fire of thought, let us; the holy Padshahs, some Sandal need

We should not, all the time, them, only " kathi" (bawal) feed.

Food to grow is necessary, but important is also, food for our brain n heart

Let us promote our higher selves, feeding the values high, of our curriculum should be a part.
