VEH... EK JIVAN
A WAY OF LIFE

Jahan pyaar ki chhaya men nishchint ho main pyaar kar sakoon
Jahan apne apnon se bina kahe main baat kar sakoon
Jahan sapne apni nahin apnon ki dua karte hain
Jahan khushiyan baant ke hi khush hua karte hain.
Us nazakat se jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai
Us ghar men jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai.

Jahan auron ke gham ko apna samajh ke rota hoon
Jahan auron ke dard se main bhi chikh uthta hoon
Jahan bhi main jaoon jo main chhod nahin sakta
Jis se main chahoon to bhi toot nahin sakta.
Us nazakat se jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai
Us ghar men jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai.

Jiski badhti ko dekh garv se dil chehchahata hai
Jiski mahanta ko dekh sir aap he jhuk jata hai
Jis taal per yeh dil khoob jhoom kar dhadakta hai
Veh chat - jis ke neeche meri paribhasha hai.
Us nazakat se jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai
Us ghar men jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai.

Jahan dena farz nahin per len ke samaan hai
Jahan svarth ka arth nahin keval seva men samman hai
Jahan aatma sva nahin per sarva ki santaan hai
Jahan ek dusre ke liye svakaamna kurbaan hai.
In asulon per chalne ka maza hi kuchh aur hai
In sanskaron se jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai.

Jahan tyaag ki kamai hai, prabhu ki padhai hai
Aur svadesh aur parivaar ki pavitr parchhai hai
Jahan guroor ki hatya men anand ubharta hai
Jahan aashirvaad se hi karm hua karta hai.
In asulon per chalne ka maza hi kuchh aur hai
In sanskaron se jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai.

Hava bhi cheer de - aisi hriday ki komalta
Jal bhi jala de - aisi sushil shitalta
Jis prem ke mahal ko duniya samajh nahin paati hai
Jis kritagyata ke samudra ko dharti baant nahin paati hai.
In asulon per chalne ka maza hi kuchh aur hai
In sanskaron se jine ka maza hi kuchh aur hai.

Where in the shade of love I can love without worry
Where with dear ones I can communicate without speech
Where dreams are seeking blessings for the dear ones and not the self
Where distribution of happiness is the only way to happiness.
Life of that grace has its own charm
Life in that home has its own charm.

Where I burst out crying about the misery of others
Where I scream at the pain of others
Wherever I go, that which I cannot leave
>From which even if I want I cannot breakaway.
Life of that grace has its own charm
Life in that home has its own charm.

The growth of which makes the heart chirp with pride
The greatness of which makes the head bow with awe
The rhythm on which this heart beats with joy
That roof - under which I am defined.
Life of that grace has its own charm
Life in that home has its own charm.

Where giving is not an obligation, it is like taking
Where self-motives have no meaning and respect is in serving
Where the identity is not the self but the child of all
Where for one another, personal aspirations are ignored.
Believing in these principles has a charm of its own
Living with these values has a charm of its own.

Where earning is by sacrifice and the almighty is revered
Where the holy shadow of home and family is there
Where the murder of the ego is a source of pleasure
Where blessings are the force behind all action and accomplishments.
Believing in these principles has a charm of its own
Living with these values has a charm of its own.

The air may tear it - such softness of the heart
Water may burn it - such polite cool of character
That mansion of love which the world cannot comprehend
That sea of mutual indebtedness which the continents cannot separate.
Believing in these principles has a charm of its own
Living with these values has a charm of its own.
