A beautiful Hindi song

If I ever come into your thoughts, Just come to me, you’re welcome always... Didn't watch the movie, I just like this song very much.



 Chale Aana Lyrics English Translation

Judaa hum ho gaye maana

I admit that we’re separated

Magar yeh jaan lo jaana

But believe this o sweetheart

Judaa hum ho gaye maana

I admit that we’re separated

Magar yeh jaan lo jaana

But believe this o sweetheart


Kabhi main yaad aaun to

If I ever come into your thoughts

Chale aana.. chale aana

Just come to me, you’re welcome always


Tumhein main bhool jaunga

That I’d forget about you

Yeh baatein dil mein na lana

Don’t let your heart have that kind of thought ever


Kabhi main yaad aaun to

If I ever come into your thoughts

Chale aana.. chale aana

Just come to me, you’re welcome always


ha kaun mera.. ek tu hi tha..

I had no one beside me, you were

Saanson se zyada jo zaruri tha…

More important to me than breathing

Tere liye main kuchh nahi lekin…

I may not be anything for you, but

Mere liye tu mera sab kuchh tha… aa….

For me, you were everything

Nahi jaana bhula karke

Don’t forget me and don’t leave me

Yeh baatein tum hi kehte the

You used to say these to me

Rahi khushiyaan nahi meri

My happiness didn’t last long

Ke tum bhi waqt jaise the

Cause you also changed like the time

Tumhara tha rahega bhi

It was yours, and it’ll remain yours

Kare kya dil hai deewana

What can I do, my heart is crazy for you


Kabhi main yaad aaun to

If I ever come into your thoughts

Chale aana.. chale aana

Just come to me, you’re welcome always


Maine tumhari baat maani hai…

I have to abide by what you’ve said

Maine maanaya dil ko hai kaise…

I can’t describe how I consoled my heart

Aab se raho tum khush jaha bhi ho…

I pray you to live happily wherever you stay

Mera tumhara tha bhi kya waise…

What did we have between us anyway?

Bhale duri rahe jitni

No matter how long the distance

Nigahon se nigahon ki

Is between your eyes and my gaze

Magar khwaabon ki duniya mein

In the world of dreams

Milunga tumse rozana

I’d meet you everyday

Yahin tak tha safar apna

Our journey was only this far

Tumhein hai laut kar jaana

Now you have to part ways


Kabhi main yaad aaun to

If I ever come into your thoughts



Chale aana.. chale aana

Just come to me, you’re welcome always


Na re.. na re hmm… Aaa…. Aaa….

Biography 131: Laylatul Qadr


When I was in school, I always uses to stay awake the whole night in Laylatul Qadr. It was very difficult on those days. When I started work, waking up the whole night was nothing. Sometimes I just can't sleep for nights and can't find the reason.

This year, I mostly woke up the whole night during Ramadan. Don't know why. And slept in the daytime, sometimes not.

I think I have prayed more in my school time. I uses to start praying from Magrib and then went to bed after Fajr prayer. I tried to do the same. But when you grow up, you have more responsibility. Your brain works more, it's difficult to put away all the thoughts and concentrate on praying.

After moving to Canada, I can easily stay awake all odd numbers of nights during the last 10 Ramadan. During school days, I somehow could manage to stay awake on the 27th night of Ramadan.

This Ramadan, I pray for this world, let's have peace among all humans, let's live better.

Poor house quality in Canada

 In Canada, it is really difficult to find a good apartment, condo or house to rent. The landlord will hide their problems. No matter how hard you inspect you will never know about them until you start living in there.

And these problems are very common. But the landlord won't put money to fix it. The tenants have to adjust to it. They knew, if they leave this house, the next one will have some other problem.

The most common problem is cockroaches. Then bed bugs.

Another one in the house is a basement. They don't make it perfect to cover all kinds of holes. So, bugs, and mouses can easily enter. Moreover, this is a cold country. So, even in summer, the soil is very cold, and the basement area became very cold. The holes give extra cold wind blowing to make the tenant's life miserable.

In apartments, some have heating problems too. But the landlord won't fix the heater. They will keep it high when the tenant visits so they won't figure it out. Later, the heater will go in its own way, so some rooms may become very cold.

Some have leaking problems. In rain or snow, water leaks from the ceiling or pipe.

In some cases you will find broken fittings, some will be fixed after request, and some won't.

Some private houses won't put any money into cleaning. So, you have to do it by yourself after starting living in there.

There should be a very strong organization that can inspect rapidly these problems and make them fixed. I am sure Canada is developed enough to fix this problem.

Biography 130: My College (Grade 11 and 12): Positive things


 Previously I heard that Viqarunnisa noon college is one of the best colleges for girls in Bangladesh. I didn't understand the meaning of famous those days. But later wherever I went, when people heard that I am from this college, I always got some extra respect and benefit.

It has a huge compound. On one side they had school, then a big field and finally the college part. Still, I don't know, how many gates they have. On our college side, they had 2 big gates and the 3rd one was with a bank. Yes, we had a bank inside our college for our financial deposit. One of its doors was outside the boundary so general people can also come and do their transactions.

Our canteen is very famous for its delicious food. The canteen manager is a big chef. People used to hire him for big ceremonies (Marriage, parties or birthdays). His son did masters in the UK, then came back to Bangladesh and made his father's food business huge.

I liked their sports section. Girls could get training in many sports if they wanted to. In Dhaka, our college was the best in the volleyball games. They were good at table tennis too.

Our auditorium was very big, at a time thousands of students could join a program.

One of the tailors uses to take orders and deliver dresses for the students. They had ready-made dresses too.

The College library was good. When I had free time I use to sit over there. Just to pass the time. If anyone doesn't study but sits over there, no one is bothered.

After college, any teacher from college can do private coaching to the students inside the college campus. Maybe be inside the library or the girl's common room. It was very helpful so that students didn't need to travel from one place to another for private tuition. (Private tuition is a very common thing in Bangladesh).

Our classes were huge. Teachers use to use mic to take the class. 

Students came from all over Bangladesh. Five division's stand marks (Top 20 students in a big area) girls were in the college. One of my friends said, previously she was curious to see them, oh, this is one of the top 20 girls. Now it was too many. She said I was getting tired of seeing meritorious girls.

I came from a government school. Our school was a good school. But I really didn't have any idea, why people run for a good college. But after coming to Viqarunnisa noon college, I understood, why. The way the teachers were taking class, I was amazed. They know their topic very well and are well up to date. They teach girls so many things which weren't in the book. When they speak, you know their knowledge is very deep.

Another good thing I found is that in this college, girls have the power of voice. They can go to the principal Hamida Ali any time and talk.

If any girls suggested any good teacher who is in Dhaka, the principal will bring them to the college. If any girl complains about anything, she will go by herself to check it out and will take action. She also knew how to manage this big amount of fearless girls.

I remember one day teachers selected girls' college captain by themselves. Some students didn't like it. They started wearing black batch with their dress. The principal called them and ask why don't like this idea, then ask to give them 3 months to prove if they can manage girls. The girls agreed. 3 months was huge for us. After 3 months girls didn't have the energy to fight on this issue, it was somehow accepted. Those two girls were polite with all, so no one make any issue with them.

Let's see


 Sometimes, no matter how hard you try to make things perfect, something went wrong. I mean huge things.

I was thinking, why? Maybe Allah wants me to stay away from these.

How many times I will keep changing my way?

Maybe that is my way, keep changing...

Let's see, let's see...

I don't know how long I have time, to see it.

There are so many things that I wanted to do, so many places I wanted to go...

Let's see, let's see...

I believe whatever is meant for me, will come (Good or bad).

Biography 129: Admission to Viqarunnisa Noon College


 When we pass the SSC exam, Matijhil Ideal School has extended and added 2 years of college with them (Grade 11 and 12). They became Matijhil Ideal School and College.

 They were very new and looking for good students to become a famous college. So, first, they declared all students who have got start marks (75%) in the SSC exam can join their college without any admission exam.

Obviously, we all liked that approach. My classmates Ropi and her friends were saying, this college has been built up just for us. But then many of us got start marks, so the college had changed its mind. They declared that students who have got marks of more than 800 (80%) can join their college without any test. My those classmates weren't happy about that. But I didn't feel trouble. Because I had enough marks.

So, I collected admission forms from this college. I thought I will get admitted to this college, and finally, like my all sisters, I will be a student of an Ideal school and college.

But I will try to join Viqarunnisa Noon School and College. One of the best colleges for girls in Bangladesh. Not only from Dhaka city but girls from all around the country also come to get admitted to this college. I have decided,  I will try my luck. Didn't have much hope, but let's see. If by chance I had got admitted here, then I don't have to go to Ideal College. You know, I don't like too much restriction.

Like I always do, I didn't study to get admitted. Just give the exam, and answered whatever I can. But luck was with me. I have got a chance to study at Viqarunnisa noon college! Not only me, but most of our friends or classmates from our school also joined here. I felt life is like a piece of cake.

Biography 128: Height

 When I was in grade 8 (Class 8), I was the second tallest girl in the class. From grade 7 I suddenly started becoming tall. In grade 8 the tallest girl was Tanna. She is a very beautiful, tall and smart girl. I wasn't jealous, I just wanted to be taller than her. I don't know why I wanted to be taller than her, generally, I never worried about my physical appearance.

In my mind, I was praying to Allah to make me from 5 feet to 3 inches to 5 feet 3.5 inches. Maybe I did some exercise too. Our friend Aleya Ferdousi showed us (To her friends) how to exercise to become taller. I watched her carefully and then tried at home. And it worked.

Within a couple of months, I became 5'3.5". Oh, I was so happy. Now I am the tallest girl in the class.  I stopped that exercise. I didn't want to be too tall. I knew, then I won't find ready-made dresses easily.

Later, I was aged 25, I checked and found that I became 5'5". I again prayed to Allah. Please don't make me too tall ;)

In kindergarten, I saw my son become the second-highest tallest boy in the class. I asked him, do you want to be the tallest. He told me that he doesn't care. Within a year he became the tallest. I again asked him, how do you feel about that. He smiled, I understood deep inside he was feeling the same. Just like his mother.

After moving to Canada I found he has an average height in the class in grade 1. I was happy. Then in grade 6, he became the tallest boy in the class.

Now we moved to Ontario. He is one of the tall boys in the class. I told him, don't become too tall. Then I have to order your dresses and shoes, which I don't want.

A lovely song

 A lovely Hindi song


Lyrics:

Dua bhi lage na mujhe ( Prayers don't work for me anymore)

Dawa bhi lage na mujhe (Medicines don't work for me anymore)

Jabse dil ko mere tu laga hai (Since the time my heart has fallen for you)

Neend raaton ki meri ( My sleep of the nights )

Chahat baaton ki meri ( My love in the conversations )

Chain ko bhi mere tune yoon thaga hai (And my peace, you've cheated them all)

Jab saansein bharun main (Whenever I take a deep breath)

Band aankhen karun main (Whenever I close my eyes)

Nazar tu yaar aaya (Then I only see you my beloved)

Dil ko karaar aaya (My heart is at peace)

Tujhpe hai pyar aaya (I've fallen in love with you)

Pehli pehli baar aaya o yaara (O beloved, this has happened to me for the first time)


Har roz pooche yeh hawayein hum toh bata ke haare (The winds keep asking for you and I'm tired of telling them)

Kyun zikar tera karte hai humse taare (Why do the stars talk to me about you)

Ab kisse hai tere in hothon pe mere izhaar aaya yaara  (Now your stories are there on my lips and I accept my love for you)

Biography: 127 Sylhet

My dad and I were in a Tea garden

My father sometimes brought magazines home. Like "Bichitra" and others too. In those days I was in school. Maybe in grade 9 or 10.

In a magazine (I don't remember the name of the magazine) somebody posted a travel guideline to Sylhet. I have never been to Sylhet and it's not safe for a young girl to travel to another district.

So, I have started manipulating my father to go to travel Sylhet with me. He didn't agree. He said the cold is too much (It was in January or February) over there. Robers may rob us because we don't know anything about that place, etc.

My brother was very young, maybe he was studying in Kindergarten. He suddenly joined me and asked father, let's go 3 of us.

My dad loved his only son very much, now he started thinking maybe we can go. Some of his colleagues were from Sylhet. They had guided my father, on how should we go, and to which hotel we should go (Shahban). Later I found, that the hotel management could have been a little better.

We enjoyed hotel food, it was great, we have visited 2 Peer's Dargah, Jaflong, Tea garden and Madhob kundo fall. It was amazing.

In the hotel, we had rented a 2-bed room. I had taken one bed, another one was shared by our dad and brother. My brother had a bid body on those days. They really felt trouble sharing one bed. I heard my brother was saying to my dad, maybe we shouldn't bring her (Me) with us.

What! It is I who had taken initiative to travel and I had to hear these!

My father and brother had taken two heavy jackets. Because they believed it will be very cold. I knew what was going to happen. So, I warned them from the very beginning, never ask me to carry your jacket.

I was right, in the end, they had to just carry those in their hand. And none of them were happy to do that. Several times they looked at me to have some mercy. Sorry, when I said, don't take this they didn't listen, now I cant help those guys.
