Light

the stars are visible
but far apart
sometimes it's the earthern lamp
who may light your heart

Hear me Wanderer

restless in heart
I do my part
the shoulders are heavy
and the head runs low
I dove deep
now I don't know how
to go back high

O wanderer,
speak thy heart
for the world is forlorn
when love runs dry

Are stars your language
or the night sky?
O wanderer
speak thy heart
for lines are deep
on the faces of passers by

(Searched all his life
the bard
with all his might
to find the solace
of the wanderers light)

Are words your wisdom
or the mountain high
O wanderer
speak thy part
for there's no comfort
in the homeless heart

aimless heart

aimless heart
the streets I wandered
I followed the faces
of passer bys

the roads I turned
the time I squandered
aimless heart
I wondered why
they were there
and here was I

deepak lau jale maddham

tapi woh mitti
jali woh mitti
barse baadal

jami woh mitti
thani woh mitti
barse badal
bahi woh mitti

main woh mitti
tu woh mitti
barse badal
maadho mitti

lau jale maddham
deepak lau jale maddham

peepal panchi

sanjh bhayi gaye saaye re
peepal panchi aaye re

woh peepal baithe panchi re
chah chah karte panchi re
jahan peepal dal phailaye re
wahin chain bas aaye re

sanjh bhayi gaye saaye re
peepal panchi aaye re
