The man is chained!

 (Man is born free, but everywhere he is in chains) Rousseau.


Have you people ever seen a baby in chains?


If, not then, why have I been chained?


Have you people ever observed a plane flying on land?


If, not then, why have I been chained?


Have you people ever been kept in

 captivity without any offense?


If, not then, why have I been kept in chains? 


Tell me!  why have I been kept in chains?

What is love?

 By Sardar Khatoon Translation by Junaid Wahid Jokhio  محبت کیا ہے؟ کبھی سوچا تم نے؟ محبت تو نام ہے آزادی کا۔ محبت کے نام پر قید ہونا چھوڑ دو. محبت کیا ہے؟  کبھی سوچا تم نے؟ محبت ایک روحانی  عبادت ہے، جو تمہیں دنیا میں ہر ڈر اور خوف سے نجات دلاتی ہے.  محبت کیا ہے؟ کبھی سوچا تم نے؟ محبت تو نام ہے آزاد تخیل کا۔ جس کی کوئی سرحد نہیں ہوتی ۔ اگر تم محبت کرتے ھو تو ھوا میں تحلیل ہو جاؤ، بادلوں کے ساتھ مل کر برسو.   دھوپ بن کر ہر آنگن پہ یکساں اترو۔ چاند بن کر سب کے چھرے روشن کرو۔ سرد ہوا بن کر روحوں میں اترو۔ اگر تم محبت کے دعویدار ہو تو، شجر بن کر سب کو سایہ دو۔ قلعوں میں قيد بند روحوں کو آزاد کر دو.  دریاء بن کر سب کو سیراب کرو۔ فصلوں کے ساتھ پنپتے، پھلو اور پھولو۔ ہر موسم میں بہار بن کر رہو۔ کسی ایک پر حکمرانی کرنا محبت نہیں۔ محبت تو نام ہے آزادی کا۔ محبت کے نام پر خود کو قید کرنا چھوڑ دو۔ What is love? By Sardar Khatoon Translated by Junaid Wahid Jokhio. What is love? Have you ever pondered over it? Love is the name of freedom. Stop subjugating yourself ...

Just for twenty days (A romantic story)

Once upon a time, there was a boy called Amir who was sixteen years old. The boy went to his maternal grand parents' home without his other family members where there were his maternal grandpa, maternal uncle, aunt and their four little kids of almost two, four and six years old. During those days, a sister of that boy's maternal aunt had come to visit them and was utterly familiar with the boy. The boy always dreamt of being with any sister of his aunt, so he got that chance. Both the girl and the boy started talking to each other like friends on the very first day and on the following days that friendship became so strong that they got closer to each other. The boy began to sit in the kitchen when the girl used to cook something. There was an orchard of mangoes near their home.

The boy plucked and brought the unripe mangoes daily and both the gir...
