My Song: Forever (Tune inspired from my song Zindagi)

Forever!(c) 2006 Ahmed Arsalan
by A. Arsalan

Living life alone and I'm feeling great
There's no one home and I'm wide awake
Feeling out of touch and out of date
I don't care no more, I'm in a wicked state

Fresh out of the boat, crashing through the gate
Where friendly fire awaits but then that's just my fate
People never see what's going on
They think they are free, they think that they are strong

[CHORUS begin]
Killing your spirit away
Living, but always afraid
And then your life folds away
You see your plans wash away

Wishing your problems away
Hoping the good times will stay, forever!
[CHORUS end]

Forever never stays, life just always fades
Life's a journey you take, life is never made
It's like you're on a boat and then you set the sail
Nature's in control, and it can make you fail

Together we can swim against the tide
We can join hands and let God decide
Nothing's in our hands, our castles in the sand
Before your life is gone, do what you can

Delusion is just insane
Hoping the good times will stay, forever!

[Repeat CHORUS X 2]

My Urdu Song: Nahi Tanha

Nahi Tanha(c) 2006 Ahmed Arsalan
by A. Arsalan


Ab mein hoon kahan tanha
Tanhai nahi ab yahan
Aur mein hoon jahan
Tu hai wahan

Dil nay yay mujh say kaha
Wo apna apna sa tha
Uskay pyaar mein main
Doob gaya

[CHORUS begin]
Ab saath nahi chhorrna
Har baat mujh hee say karna
Bas meray dil mein rehna
Chali jaana nahi

Aaeingee dushwaariyaan
Mohobbat ki raahoan mein
Tum dil ko thaamey raho
Meray saath chalo
[CHORUS end]

Khushiyoan ki yay ghariyaan
Chun lo jo hain yay motiyaan
Aur aagay barho
Barhtay raho

Tum meray jo saath ho
Phir chaahay koi baat ho
Duniya say yay
Kya darna

[Repeat CHORUS til fade]

My Song: And Then You Die

And Then You Die(c) 2006 Ahmed Arsalan
by A. Arsalan


All the money that you saved
All the paths that you paved
All those tears that you cried
All the passion and pride

And then you die

All the plans that you made
All those fancy charades
Scared that your star might fade
Struggling to find a worthy mate

And then you die

[CHORUS begin]
What will you do
When you know
One day you're gonna die

What will you say
To your Lord
Why you couldn't try
To be better

What will it take
For you to realize
That time is flying by

What will it take
For you to know
That any day
You're gonna die
[CHORUS end]

And when you die
Will it make you cry
Will it, then, make you see
The true reality

All the places you love
All the memories you make
All those pictures that you take
Running a never-ending race

And then you die

Planning your way through and through
Bending and breaking every rule
Trying so hard to be cool
Striving to live life to the full

And then you die

[Repeat CHORUS til fade]

My Song: New World

New World(c) 2006 Ahmed Arsalan
by A. Arsalan

Let's put everything aside
All those arguments when we fight
Let's go where we won't have to hide
Where we only speak our minds

Let's find that happy place
Where people really care
Where smiles are every where
Where simple joys abound

[CHORUS begin]
I... wanna go
Where no one has gone before
I... wanna see
THE world where there's harmony
[CHORUS end]

Let's bring food to the poor
Hold the orphans close
Let's bring love to the old
Shelter the homeless from cold

Forget the color of their skin
Forget the deeds of their kin
Put all the prejudice aside
Be on the little guy's side

[Repeat CHORUS]

Let us open our minds
Let our hearts be our guides
Give the woman the choice
Let's learn to sacrifice

Let us be kind to the kids
Give them a chance to exist
Let's find a place deep within
Where compassions begin

[Repeat CHORUS til fade]

My Urdu Song: Zindagi

Zindagi(c) 2005 Ahmed Arsalan
by A. Arsalan

[X begin]
Kis say mein kahoon, apnay dil ki baat
Kis say mein kahoon, apnay dil ki baat
Dil ki sarhadain, meree kaaenaat
Kab ubal parain, saaray jazbaat

Kis ki chah mein, hoon mein darbadar
Aarahi hai yaad, kis ki iss qadar
Kis liyay hoon mein, itna bay qaraar
Uss bay wafa say hai, kyun mujh ko itna pyaar
[X end]

[CHORUS begin]
Uljhi hui yay zindagi
Chaaroan taraf aik aas si
Bas mein meray kuchh bhee nahi
Khud say meree begaangi

Farsoodgi kis kaam ki
Maahoal ki yay perwee
Chhoro sabhi paabandiyaan
Mil kay banaao rasmain naee

Kis kaam ki yay bandagi
Jis ki nahi manzil koi
Aazaadiyaan jab hoan nahi
Barbaad hai yay zindagi

Uljhi hui yay zindagi
Chaaroan taraf aik aas si
Bas mein meray kuchh bhee nahi
Khud say meree begaangi

Kyun meree yay taqdeer thi
Sachi khushi miltee nahi
Kyun nafratain ham mein barheen
Murjha gaee dil ki kali
[CHORUS end]

Sochoan mein hoon gum, ab nahi faraar
Uljhanain kaee, gham hain bay shumaar
Jo hota nahi, uska kya intezaar
Manoos si, mayoosiyoan ki raat

Kya mein karoon, apnay dil kay saath
Samjhota karoon, mustaqbil kay saath

[Repeat X]
[Repeat CHORUS]

Kis say mein kahoon, apnay dil ki baat
Kis say mein kahoon, apnay dil ki baat

My Song: Away

Away(c) 2005 Ahmed Arsalan
by A. Arsalan

[CHORUS begin]
I... just wanna go away
I... just wanna go away
I can never stay
Listen... to what I have to say
[CHORUS end]

You can't treat me like this
Anymore
It's a new beginning
And I'm out the door
You can't hold on to me
You can't lure
The simple truth is that
For me, you're no more

[Repeat CHORUS]

I have never felt this strong before
All those memories are now carved in stone
I have touched the ground and I'm on the floor
The time is now for my battered soul to soar

[Repeat CHORUS til fade]

Kuchh dhoondta tha
Magar yay dil toa
Jaanay kab say
Khud mein gumm hai
Begaana hai

Cuz 'tis the time to be jolly
So come to me, let's party
