Take it to the limit

All alone at the end of the of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue
I was thinking 'bout a woman who might have
Loved me and I never knew
You know I've always been a dreamer
(spent my life running 'round)
And it's so hard to change
(Can't seem to settle down)
But the dreams I've seen lately
Keep on turning out and burning out
And turning out the same

So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time

You can spend all your time making money
You can spend all your love making time
If it all fell to pieces tomorrow
Would you still be mine?

And when you're looking for your freedom
(Nobody seems to care)
And you can't find the door
(Can't find it anywhere)
When there's nothing to believe in
Still you're coming back, you're running back
You're coming back for more

So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time

Take it to the limit
Take it to the limit
Take it to the limit one more time

Time


Time, why you punish me?
Like a wave bashing into the shore
You wash away my dreams.

Time, why you walk away?
Like a friend with somewhere to go
You left me crying

Can you teach me about tomorrow
And all the pain and sorrow
Running free?
'Cause tomorrow's just another day
And I don't believe in time

Time, I don't understand
Children killing in the street
Dying for the color of red
Time, hey there red and blue
Wash them in the ocean, make them clean,
Maybe their mothers won't cry tonight

Can you teach me about tomorrow
All the pain and sorrow
Running free?
But tomorrow's just another day
And I don't believe in...

Chorus:

Time is wasting
Time is walking
You ain't no friend of mine
I don't know where i'm goin'
I think I'm out of my mind
Thinking about time

And if I die tomorrow, yeah
Just lay me down in sleep

(chorus)

Time, you left me standing there
Like a tree growing all alone
The wind just stripped me bare, stripped me bare
Time, the past has come and gone
The future's far away
Now only lasts for one second, one second
Can you teach me about tomorrow
And all the pain and sorrow
Running free?
'Cause tomorrow's just another day
And I don't believe in time

(Chorus)

Time, why you punish me?

जब भी आती हैं तेरी याद


जब भी आती है तेरी याद कभी शाम के बाद
और बढ़ जाती है अफसुर्दा-दिली शाम के बाद

अब इरादों पे भरोसा है न तौबा पे यकीन
मुझ को ले जाए कहाँ तश्ना-लाबी शाम के बाद

यूँ तो हर लम्हा तेरी याद का बोझल गुजरा
दिल को महसूस हुई तेरी कमी शाम के बाद

यूँ तो कुछ शाम से पहले भी उदासी थी अदीब
अब तो कुछ और बढ़ी दिल की लगी शाम के बाद

शेंदुर लाल चढायो



शेंदुर लाल चढायो अच्छा गजमुखको|| दोंदिल लाल बिराजे सूत गौरीहरको ||
हाथ लिए गुडलड्डू साईं सुरवरको || महिमा कहे ना जाय लागत हूँ पदको || 1 ||
जय जय श्री गणराज विध्यासुख्दाता|| धन्य तुमारा दर्शन मेरा मन रमता||

अष्तो सिद्धि दासी संकटको बैरी|| विघ्नविनाशन मंगल मूरत अधिकारी||
कोटि सूरजप्रकाश ऐसी छबि तेरी|| गंडस्थल मद्मस्तक झूले शशिहारी|| 2 ||
जय जय श्री गणराज विध्यासुख्दाता|| धन्य तुमारा दर्शन मेरा मन रमता||

भावभागत से कोई शरणागत आवे|| संतत संतत सभी भरपूर पावे||
ऐसे तुम महाराज मोको अति भावे|| गोसावीनंदन निशिदिन गुण गावे|| 3 ||
जय जय श्री गणराज विध्यासुख्दाता|| धन्य तुमारा दर्शन मेरा मन रमता||

वाटेवर काटे वेचीत


वाटेवर काटे वेचीत चाललो
वाटले जसा फुलाफुलात चाललो

मिसळुनी मेळ्यात कधी, एक हात धरूनि कधी
आपुलीच साथ कधी करित चाललो

आधिचा प्रसाद घेत, पुढची ऐकीत साद
नादातच शीळ वाजवीत चाललो

चुकली तालात चाल, लागला जिवास बोल
ढळलेला तोल सावरीत चाललो

खांद्यावर बाळगिले, ओझे सुखदुःखाचे
फेकुन देऊन अता परत चाललो
