ਕੋਈ ਵੈਰ ਹੈ ਇਸ ਗੋਟੀ ਦਾ

everything
Everything I touch may disintegrate into dust
Everything I trust may dishonor me in disgust
Everything is everything, affidavits and wedding rings
I ain't scared of losses no more, I see life in that
I don't resonate with the concept of love and hate
Cause your perspective is less effective and rather fake
The universe and the heavens work in my DNA

Keeping you in our memory
I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
'Cause no one else cared
After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here?
So if you're asking me
I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
- Linkin Park

Mortal Man
I remember you was conflicted
Misusing your influence
Sometimes I did the same
Abusing my power, full of resentment
Resentment that turned into a deep depression
Found myself screaming in the hotel room
I didn’t wanna self destruct
The evils of Lucy was all around me
So I went running for answers...............

ਛੱਲਾ -2
ਸਈਓਂ ਨੀ ਇਕ ਭੁੱਲ ਮੈਥੋਂ ਹੋਈ
ਨੀ ਜਿਹੜਾ ਪੰਛੀ ਯਾਰ ਬਣਾਇਆ
ਚੂਰੀ ਕੁੱਟਾਂ ਤੇ ਉਹ ਖਾਂਦਾ ਨਾਹੀ
ਨੀ ਓਹਨੂੰ ਦਿਲ ਦਾ ਮਾਸ ਖਵਾਯਾ
ਇਕ ਉਡਣੀ ਨੀ ਉਹ ਐਸੀ ਉੱਡਯਾ
ਓਹਨੇ ਪਰਤ ਨਾ ਫੇਰ ਪਾਇਆ
ਛੱਲਾ ਮੁੜ ਕੇ ਨੀ ਆਇਆ
ਵੇ ਰੋਣਾ ਉਮਰਾਂ ਦਾ ਪਾਇਆ
ਵੇ ਮੱਲਿਆ ਦੇਸ ਪਰਾਇਆ ....

ਨਹੀਂ ਛੱਡਣਾ ਅਸੀਂ ਹੌਂਸਲਾ
ਗੈਰਤ ਵਾਲੇ ਨਾ ਹੋਂਸਲਾ ਛੱਡ ਦੇ ਨੇ ਲੈਂਦੇ ਝੱਲ ਮੁਸੀਬਤਾਂ ਭਾਰੀਆਂ ਨੇ
ਉਹ ਅੰਤ ਨੂੰ ਬਾਜ਼ੀਆਂ ਹਰ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਬਾਗ਼ਾਂ ਮੰਗੀਆਂ ਜਿਨਾਂ ਉਧਾਰੀਆਂ ਨੇ

Embracing the gallows
“In these cells, besides myself, there are many other prisoners who are waiting to be hanged. The only prayer of these people is that somehow or other they may escape the noose. Perhaps I am the only man amongst them who is anxiously waiting for the day when i will be fortunate enough to embrace the gallows for my ideal.
I will climb the gallows gladly and show to the world as to how bravely the revolutionaries can sacrifice themselves for the cause”
- Bhagat Singh in a Letter to B.K. Dutt

Punjab by Gurdas Maan
What an amazing video and the concept of taking Bhagat singh into the future was a really good. Its actually made people think if Bhagat singh would have known that what will happen in his Punjab, had he still sacrificed his life for the country. I had no words when he was about to erase ‘Shaheed’ from his name in the video, what a spine chilling scene it was.
Listening to the lyrics one can easily feel the pain in the writings of Gurdas Maan. But one question in the back of my mind which has been hitting me was why he did not released the video during the high time of elections, Why!? I know a lot of people have been coming out with the arguments that “Please stop associating Gurdas Maan with politics” & “Why people think that if he released the song before elections it would have changed peoples minds to vote?”. I fully understand that thinking peoples vote will be changed with his song is absurd.
Here’s what I have been thinking from past couple of months. To me its not about changing peoples minds to vote but to take a stand against the crooks and bad things in Punjab. Gurdas Maan being one of the most influential Punjabi artists whose words catch attention of almost all the Punjabi. From the past couple of months deep inside myself and i believe there are many more like me, who were waiting for him to say something about whats been going on in Punjab. But it never happened. I am completely fine with that though because its his choice after all its his life. But I have been watching him since my childhood and I bet at least 2-3 generations of Punjab have grown up listening to his melodious songs about Punjab. Now releasing the song especially after elections does not make sense. To me it looks like playing smart and safe. Even if he stayed silent on this whole thing it would have been fine because then it would be considered well he does not want to engage himself in the politics which is fine as its his choice. Now there would always be this small thing bothering my mind that Gurdas Maan whom I have been following like a die hard fan missed the point in the history of Punjab when he could have stood tall against all the wrongs.
Here’s what I have learnt, I have always liked his poetry and hopefully i always will, but considering every artist to bring up a change in the society and standing with what they preach is not always the right expectation. And keeping expectations always hurts.
Some people are thinkers and some people are doers. So just listen to their songs and pay them for their art by buying it. That is it! nothing more.
But I sincerely do people of Punjab are aware of who took the stand, roared like a lion against all the odds and is the real keeper of Bhagat Singh’s legacy and spirit...
Jeonda vasda rahe saada Stoj vala Maan.
Inquilaab Zindabad.
