GOOD DAY


Dr. Pathan wishes you Good Day.
[ Dry leaves have to go before Spring. Don't try to catch dry leaves , get rid of undue relations. Don't love shadows, love Golden Hearts and Pure Minds. Isolation is much better than to be encircled with fraudsters and selfish circles. You are Beauty, Love and Peace. Behave, what you are. Preach and promote it with sincerity and dedication.]
نفرتون ڪمائي ڏس دوستيون وڃائي ڏس،
پن-ڇڻ ئي بهار آڻي سو منطق آزمائي ڏس،
نت نوان گل ۽ ٻوٽا من-چمن ۾ لڳائي ڏس،
تنهائين جي وادين ۾ پاڻ کي لڪائي ڏس،
دربدر رلڻ جي بدران ناد ات وڄائي ڏس،
سرت سونهن پنهنجي ات ئي چتائي ڏس،
ويندن لاء ويهڻ بدران وک ڪا وڌائي ڏس.
تون پيار سان پڄائي ڏس، دعا سلام سهڻا.

GOOD DAY


Dr. Pathan wishes you Good Day.
[ Differences and anger is essential matter in love & respect affair. Hence, don't be afraid of it. It is ego and misunderstanding that become high-risk for relation and connection. Don't be late in removing it. Otherwise, everything will be lost such as trust, hope and sincerity. Love requires to accommodate and adjust accordingly so as justification is provided for smooth running of affairs of heart & mind.]
پيار ۾ تڪرار ٿين ۽ پيا ٿيندا اهي ٿيڻ ڏيو,
پر انا غلطفهمين ھوڏ هٿان ڪو زهر نہ پيو,
انهئ صورت ۾ صفائي ڏئي صاف دل ڪيو,
پيار سچي ۾ شڪ گمان ۽ وهم پائيندا ليئو,
پر بره ۾ ڪري قائم برابري جيئڻ ڏيو جيئو,
سدائين سهمت ٿيو, سونهن سان سلام سان

[ CENTRAL IDEA OF MY POETRY: We all are equal in all respect. We must not doubt or challenge integrity of others When we continually ignore and disown people, those love and respect us with sincerity and devotion, we leave no option for them, except retaliation and resentments. Therefore, If we can't accept anybody, we must not avoid to respect him/her accordingly. If we can't love, we must not hate and be late in resolving issues related to association or disassociation. Dealing in relations needs care and timely decisions dully supported by honour and dignity.]
آئون پتل جو تون سون جو تان جو ٻئي هڪ جهڙا انسان,
انهئ سوچ ئي امن پيار ماڻهپي کي ڏنا وڏا وڏا نقصان,
جي جاء ڏين جئ ۾ تن جا جي ڪبا قتل امنگ ارمان,
جي چڙي پيا وڙھي پيا تہ ڪندا پوء وسنديون ويران,
ايئن نفي ڪبي روح وجود جي تہ پوء ٿيندا گهمسان,
ماڻھون مٽجي ٿين حيوان, جي تڙيا وڃن دل-در تان.
