Title: Chhodi Agyo Pahad (Left Behind the Mountains)Chorus: छोड़ि अग्यौ पहाड़, दिल मा बसी ये टीस, माटी को प्यार, अब लागे परदेश। छोड़ि अग्यौ पहाड़, दिल मा बसी ये टीस, माटी को प्यार, अब लागे परदेश।Verse 1: गौं की गलियाँ, जहाँ खेलो बचपन, अब यादों मा बसे छन, एक सपना छन। पिरा का उन खेतों मा, मेरा प्यार थियो, सुनो छन अब बस, खंडहर का अंसियो।Chorus: छोड़ि अग्यौ पहाड़, दिल मा बसी ये टीस, माटी को प्यार, अब लागे परदेश।Verse 2: ओ बामण का बगड, त्यारो पानी छूट गयो, गौशाला का बासा, खामोश भूत गयो। जिन हाथों ले सँजोयो, अब वोँ खाली छन, मेरा गौं, मेरा देश, बस कहानी छन।Chorus: छोड़ि अग्यौ पहाड़, दिल मा बसी ये टीस, माटी को प्यार, अब लागे परदेश।Verse 3: सूरज की वो किरण, पहाड़ पर देखी, अब परदेश मा धुंध ज्यूँ लागे बेसखी। झरनों का संगीत, हवा का वो गीत, तेरी गोद मा जनमी, परदेसी मन छ गीछ।Chorus: छोड़ि अग्यौ पहाड़, दिल मा बसी ये टीस, माटी को प्यार, अब लागे परदेश।Verse 4: हुक्का पाणी का वो दौर छूट गयो, पुरखों की बोली मा प्यार टूट गयो। जहाँ जड़ छ मेरी, वहाँ दिल रुके, नयी दुनिया मा बसियो, पर रूह भटके।Chorus: छोड़ि अग्यौ पहाड़, दिल मा बसी ये टीस, माटी को प्यार, अब लागे परदेश।Verse 5: मेरा पहाड़, तेरो आँचल मा जिया, बिछड़ गयो आज, तेरो प्यार का दिया। तेरी माटी मा जनमी, वहीं बास छिन, सपना मा फेरि आउं, तेरा साथ छिन।Final Chorus: छोड़ि अग्यौ पहाड़, दिल मा बसी ये टीस, माटी को प्यार, अब लागे परदेश। छोड़ि अग्यौ पहाड़, दिल मा बसी ये टीस, माटी को प्यार, अब लागे परदेश।

[Verse] In the shadows of the fjord night Whispers of the ancient fight She calls the storm with her might Viking witch eyes so bright [Verse] With her staff she draws the rune Underneath the crescent moon She brews spells in a dark lagoon Viking witch's magic tune [Chorus] Feel the thunder hear her roar Viking witch forever more Through the waves to distant shore She is legend folklore [Verse] Battles fought with sword and spell Stories only brave men tell Her power breaks chains of hell Viking witch casts her spell [Bridge] In the mist her figure seen Cloak of black and eyes so keen She’s the force in twilight sheen Viking witch haunting dream [Chorus] Feel the thunder hear her roar Viking witch forever more Through the waves to distant shore She is legend folklore
Verse 1 (Soft, heartfelt) Ghoonghat mein chhupi si, sapno ki chhavi, Saj ke aayi hu mai, tere liye khadi. Palkon pe saje hai armaan naye, Aangan ko chod ke, tere paas aaye re. Chorus (Warm, celebratory) Moriyo re moriyo, ban gayo piya ji sanwariyo, Mhari aayi ghadi milan ki, sajan ji mhara barwariyo. Mithe geet gao re, bansuri bajao re, Chalo chalo sab saath, mharo saath nibhao re. Verse 2 (Narrative of the love story) Pehli nazar mein jo dekha tha tujhe, Mori dhadkan ki hai tu chhavi re. Mela mein mili thi hum dono jab, Saj gayo mharo jeewan ab, re ab re ab re. Chorus (Repeat, celebratory) Moriyo re moriyo, ban gayo piya ji sanwariyo, Mhari aayi ghadi milan ki, sajan ji mhara barwariyo. Mithe geet gao re, bansuri bajao re, Chalo chalo sab saath, mharo saath nibhao re. Outro (Soft, intimate) Teri hon main ab, tujhmein khoya sab, Chalo ji aaj se tu hi mharo rab. Mhari duniya tu, saanjh aur savera, Saath nibhawe hum, janam janam re.
In the shadows of a vibrant feast, Dionysus laughed, a joyful beast. Diogenes, with wisdom's glare, Challenged the revelry in the air. "Your laughter's hollow, a fleeting game, While truth and virtue bear no name." Yet Dionysus, with a knowing smile, Said, "Life's a dance, embrace each mile." "Balance, my friend, is the key we seek, In joy and in sorrow, both strong and weak." So they parted ways, with lessons learned, In the heart of life, true wisdom burned.
(Verse 1) Tum aaye zindagi mein jaise koi khushboo ho Jaise sawan ki pehli baarish, dil ko sukoon ho Dost ban kar aaye the, ab kuch aur ho Waqt ke saath rishta gehra, dil ka qaroon ho You came into my life like a fragrance Like the first rain of monsoon, peace to my heart You came as a friend, now it's something more With time, the bond deepened, a treasure of my heart (Verse 2 ) Ayati ya habibati, fil waqt al-jameel Hum ban gaye hain doston se zyada Har raaz, har baat, har dastan tumse keh doon Koi hadd na rahe, koi fasla na rahe, bas itna kareeb My beloved friend, in this beautiful time We've become more than just friends Every secret, every word, every story I tell you No limits, no distance, just this close (Chorus) Meri dost, meri humraz, meri rehnuma Tum ho mere liye sab kuch, alfaaz kya kahun Shukriya kehta hai dil, tum jo ho saath mere Zindagi ka safar ab lagta hai, khushiyon ka geet re My friend, my confidante, my guide You are everything to me, what words can I say? My heart says thank you, that you are with me Life's journey now feels like a song of happiness (Verse 3 ) Kabhi hanste hain saath, kabhi rote hain saath Dukh sukh ki har ghadi mein, dete hain saath Koi gham na ho tumhara, yeh dua hai meri Tumhari khushi mein meri khushi, yeh hai waada mera Sometimes we laugh together, sometimes we cry together In every moment of joy and sorrow, we are together May you never have any sorrow, this is my prayer In your happiness lies my happiness, this is my promise (Outro ) Ma'aki, ya sadiqati, shukran laka With you, my friend, thank you Li annaki fi hayati For being in my life Allah yibarik fik May God bless you
[Verse] Underneath the old oak Where shadows softly play We talked till the moon woke Night turned to day [Verse 2] Golden leaves fell around Words we said were few In silence love was found Strong and true [Chorus] Whisper of the wind Carries love so free In a world that spins It's just you and me [Verse 3] Softly strumming heartstrings Each note feels so right In the hush what love brings Stars guide our night [Bridge] In a field wildflowers Sway in gentle breeze We’ll count the quiet hours With ease [Verse 4] Forever in this moment Time will stand still No need for atonement Just love's thrill
[Verse] Grab your coffee spill some brew Torah's here and so are you Words unwritten words anew Learn it all because it's true [Chorus] Laymen learn Torah that's the way Day by day we won't delay Stories ancient fresh to view Because it's our Torah too [Verse 2] From the prophets to the kings Mystery in each verse sings Every lesson insight brings Echoes from divine strings [Chorus] Laymen learn Torah that's the way Day by day we won't delay Stories ancient fresh to view Because it's our Torah too [Bridge] Take a seat and join the quest Finding wisdom be our guest In the scrolls where truths invest Together we are always blessed [Chorus] Laymen learn Torah that's the way Day by day we won't delay Stories ancient fresh to view Because it's our Torah too

[Verse] Blue skies hide behind the misty veil Walking down a lonely paper trail Shadows dancing in the dimming light Trying to catch the bits of day so bright [Verse 2] Raindrops tapping out a subtle tune Floating memories of past afternoons Heartache blends with whispers in the breeze Moments slipping like the autumn leaves [Chorus] But there's a sparkle in the midnight rain A touch of gold in all our pain Strum along under the crying skies Hear the laughter in our silent cries [Verse 3] Hear the echoes of a once-sweet song Playing games with shadows all night long In the gloom a glint of hope does gleam Life's a paradox of broken dreams [Bridge] Through the darkness comes a soft Kind glow A gentle friend we did not know With our hearts we chase the night away Humming sunlight to a brand new day [Chorus] But there's a sparkle in the midnight rain A touch of gold in all our pain Strum along under the crying skies Hear the laughter in our silent cries
