For Our Future
They were real kings
His Highness majesty who could sing
Turn the fortune and change the fate
They had everything at disposal to relate
They left it behind
For world to find
To help the poor
And worked from door to door
They were great and may be remembered
For their contribution and what they have offered
To live with peace and brotherhood
In life they practiced and understood
They were real supporter
To work for people as porter
Carry out their plight and pain
Into life of their own
With great vision and mission
The great Ashoka made frank admission
'Love and compassion is the only way'
Hatred must go away
We on our part
Can pick little from their humanitarian art
At least to show some compassion
If not deteriorate but build the good relation
We need stable world
To live with unison and in one fold
Not to speak with threatening posture
But to build world for our future

Humanity demands
"Humanity demands"
That should be our clear stand
We long for peace
And want to leave at ease
Let there be moratorium
More space for stadiums
Where sports come up for youth
No love lost further and only words to soothe
Let us turn new leaf
As we have turned deaf
Stop the use of guns
As they are not meant for fun
There is great use of blood
As made after prolonged process of food
Let it not go as wastage
Hatred may not be wiped even after ages
Let us build new bridge
Let the relation not freeze
Have warmth and feelings for each other
There is lot more to think and bother
Can we create new page for good?
Have we taken out few words and understood?
If not, this is real time to turn the table
Life may then be only peaceful and stable
Let us sing together and praise
Explore new goal and chase
Hands together with great resolve
We can build and certainly solve

In The Real World
(jennings/kerr)
In dreams we do so many things
We set aside the rules we know
And fly the world so high
In great and shining rings
If only we could always live in dreams
If only we could make of life
What, in dreams, it seems
But in the real world
We must say our goodbyes
No matter if the love will live
It will never die
In the real world
There are things that we cant change
And endings come to us
In ways that we cant rearrange
I love you, and you love me
But sometimes we must let it be
In the real world
In the real world
When we were dreaming heart to heart
I wish that we had stayed right there
For when the dreamers do awake
The dreams do disappear
In the real world
There are things that we cant change
And endings come to us
In ways that we cant rearrange
I love you, and you love me
But sometimes we must let it be
In the real world
In the real world

Shine For You
Look across the world
And let us shine for you, Lord
The whole world is yours
And I want to live for you
One thing I know
Is that you've changed my life
I give you my all
All you are is good
Give you my heart
God it's only you I seek
Give you my praise
'Cause I believe in you
Look across the world
And let us shine for you, Lord
The whole world is yours
And I want to live for you, O God
All that I know
Is that you've changed my life
I give you my all
And all you are is good
Carry the lost
Make my prayer in this life real
Carry my cross
Hold on 'til I see you
Look across the world
And let us shine for you, Lord
The whole world is yours
And I want to live for you, O God
And I want to live
I want to love you more
I want to be used
Father in all of the world
May your word be heard
May it stay on my lips
Live what I speak
Until your kingdom come
Look across the world
And let us shine for you
And let us shine for you
Look across the world
And let us shine for you, Lord
The whole world is yours
And I want to live for you
Look across the world
And let us shine for you, Lord
The whole world is yours
And I want to live for you
And I want to live for you
And I want to live for you

Future World
I know a place we all can go
Dont wanna live here anymore
I see a planet slowly die
And I get tired of wondering why
Come and join the right future world
Dont you wanna be free and alive
Come and join the right future world
To a world where we all can survive
Get on board and fly with me
To the future world (future world)
To let our children grow up there in peace
We can live in harmony
In another world (another world)
10.000 lightyears away
10.000 lightyears away
Get on board and fly with me
To the future world (future world)
We can build a better world up there
Love is not just make-believe
In another world (another world)
10.000 lightyears away
10.000 lightyears away
10.000 lightyears away
10.000 lightyears away
Dont waste the precious life away
The spaceships taking off today
Leave your belongings all behind
Everything you need is in your mind
Get on board and fly with me
To the future world (future world)
We can build a better world up there
Love is not just make-believe
In another world (another world)
10.000 lightyears away
10.000 lightyears away
10.000 lightyears away
10.000 lightyears away
10.000 lightyears away...

Together with the rest of the world, let us resolve to move forward from the beginnings we have made. Let us continue to bring down the walls of hostility which have divided the world for too long, and to build in their place bridges of understanding — so that despite profound differences between systems of government, the people of the world can be friends. Let us build a structure of peace in the world in which the weak are as safe as the strong — in which each respects the right of the other to live by a different system — in which those who would influence others will do so by the strength of their ideas, and not by the force of their arms. Let us accept that high responsibility not as a burden, but gladly — gladly because the chance to build such a peace is the noblest endeavor in which a nation can engage; gladly, also, because only if we act greatly in meeting our responsibilities abroad will we remain a great Nation, and only if we remain a great Nation will we act greatly in meeting our challenges at home.

Remember last year
I well remembered last year
Nothing to appreciate much or like to hear
It was as usual great year to live with and remember
I remained calm during the period and behaved as good member
I don’t know how the New Year will start or commence
I have great expectation from it hence
I must fully gear up to meet it at once
I have vowed to keep the positive stance
Not to bear any hard feelings and nicely describe
Opening up of fresh page from book to inscribe
The short coming of yesteryear and not to repeat
Make all effort to strengthen the relation and make very sweet
It is nice to adapt to new change
It is demand of the age
More you drift to days less is concern
But certainly the mark improvement in turn
It does not need any “u” turn
You must acknowledge and return
To your good qualities to surface
And leave behind everything without trace
This is exactly what is expected of and must be done
Whatever has been done is totally forgotten
Coming cays must prove fruitful and decisive
It must end with success and look positive
The festivals are meant for arousing passion
Brotherly attitude for fellow brethren with compassion
If need be with frank and open admission
All will be well when seen it as submission
Why make life so vulnerable?
When we are absolutely capable
The future can be shaped if not decided
Rest all will look fine and coincided

How good it is
How good it proves to be revengeful?
When it does not as successful
There is no other option but to change the style
As world is not inclined to wait for meanwhile
Revengeful attitude may turn you ungrateful
That will bar your entry as successful
People may keep you at safe distance
You may be neglected often and not at once
The river water may always flow
Keep water clean and silently go
Never harm anybody when so cool and silent
But don’t spare either when in spate and hell bent
Knowledge and treasure are like weapons
They are not merely issued as coupons
That remains with men for longer period
Its misuse can be clearly seen and one must try to avoid
You use it on poor and it becomes curse
Whole life you may repent it with curse
That may not allow you sound sleep
Even if you try to retain it or keep
More you distribute it grows larger in size
This can only be done by cleaver and wise
Fools and stupid may use it to their advantage
They may live like animals even with passing of an age
So one has to change as when fortune strikes
Needs to be proven that nobility is not at all stake
Knowledge is to be passed on for future generation
That may in turn build sound and stable relation
Wealth multiplies and knowledge doubles
No one knows when it may disappear like bubbles
If it is made best use of for welfare in time
The humanity and poor may not suffer sometimes
There is no use if knowledge is used as leverage
Others need not be pulled down if they are underage
They may gain excellence in days to come
Their contribution as whole must always be welcome
Strengthen and consolidate with whatever you have
Beautifully present when time comes and behave
It may earn not only reputation but good name too
You may be known by what you have been or passed through

We may survive
World may survive
We will revive
Peace may prevail
The track may carry the rail
Humanity may win
Harmony may be seen
Love and peace may have chance
Let us not forget it at once
It is only place to live
Where all races live and believe
Under one belief and single roof
What else you need as proof?
God is one yet pray with different name
Supremacy always try to claim
Love and hatred mixed to read
Guide the path and shamefully lead
Rich and poor remain wherever they are
Beautiful dreams still at distant and very far
Still we want to be one
Let it be understood by everyone
We are human being
May there be many queens and kings
Still we are living on earth
Always afraid and fearful of death
We may have still to move
Show the world to prove
We care for human sentiments
Cry for their plight and resent
We may err but rectify too
Blame but later on justify as true
We are still sensible and can understand
No one can be kept as foe but only friend

Real Live Woman
(written by bobbie cryner)
I dont buy the lines in magazines
That tell me what Ive gotta be
Dont base my life on a movie screen
Dont fit the mold society has planned
I dont need to be 19-years-old
Or starve myself for some weight Im told
Or turn mens heads down that road
And I thank God I finally know just who I am
I aint a movie star
They never see the view from where they are
And this old town may be as far as Im goin
What hell hold tonight in his hands
He swears is so much better than
Anything this old world can show him
Im a real live woman
In love with this man I see lyin here next to me
Lost in the way that hes holdin
This real live woman
In the arms of a man where Ill fall asleep knowin theres
Nothin on earth he loves more than
This real live woman
I work 9-5 and I cant relate
To millionaires who somehow fate
Has smiled upon and fortune made their
Common lives a better place to be
And I no longer justify
Reasons for the way that I behave
I offer no apologies
For the things that I believe and say
And I like it that way
Cause Im a real live woman
In love with this man I see lyin here next to me
Lost in the way that hes holdin
This real live woman
In the arms of a man where Ill fall asleep knowin theres
Nothin on earth he loves more than
This real live woman

Political World
We live in a political world
Where love dont have any place
Were living in times where men commit crimes
And crime dont have a face
We live in a political world
Icicles hangin down
Wedding bells ring and angels sing
And clouds cover up the ground
We live in a political world
Wisdom is thrown into jail
It rots in a cell misguided as hell
Leaving no one to pick up the trail
We live in a political world
Where mercy walks the plank
Life is in mirrors, death disappears
Up the steps into the nearest bank
We live in a political world
Courage is a thing of the past
Houses are haunted, children arent wanted
Your next day could be your last
We live in a political world
The one we can see and feel
But theres no one to check, its all a stacked deck
We all know for sure that its real
We live in a political world
The cities are a lonesome fear
Little by little, you turn in the middle
Youre never sure why youre here
We live in a political world
Under the microscope
You could travel anywhere and hang yourself there
Youve always got more than enough rope
We live in a political world
Turning and a-thrashing about
As soon as youre awake youre trained to take
What looks like the easy way out
We live in a political world
Where peace is not welcome at all
Its turned away from the door to wander some more
Or put up against the wall
We live in a political world
Everythings hers and his
Climb into the flame and shout gods name
But youre not even sure what it is

May the year two thousand twelve usher in a world
A world whose achievements sure to be etched in gold
Making present maladies and miseries old
Facing future problems and challenges quite bold!
A new world without the scourge of terrorism
A wise world without the stigma of racism
A nice world without the color of fascism
A great world without the skin of chauvinism!
May the New Year ring in greater peace and plenty
May the new world see the great new vision hefty
May the green world enjoy air fresh and water pure
May the peaceful world see the joy of love so pure!
Let the people all over fight against vices
Vices of all hues and colors – not in slices
Let the people all over build character fine
Character sterling and noble for all so nice!

Imaginations Real
Voices across all the nation,
Echo in my mind.
In the streets,
In the factories,
In the towns.
Living out what imagination made real.
Got to leave the old world behind,
Use a fantasy,
Imagination is real.
Chorus
Im so much in love,
I cant explain,
Imaginations real.
Build your dreams,
And make them strong,
Lmaginations real.
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real.
No solution,
Hatred,
Fear of whats to come.
Dont cry,
Cant you feel it inside,
Cant you see its the only way it can be.
For our past has left us alone,
With a cold reality,
Imagination made real.
Chorus
If you use a dream
To change a mind,
Then imaginations real.
Think with your heart,
And you will see,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real.

I Can't Stop
Even if I want
I can't stop
As my fancy is right on top
I shall die
If I don't try
Next only to feel shy
Many beautiful faces
Enter in race
I pick only one in that case
Natural smile with no regret
Whole world to watch on lovely set
She is mine so I can't forget
I have passion
But can't be called compassion
It is pure relation
I write
For people to unite
Vow to live together and not to fight
If I touch their heart
With very good start
I shall take it as human art
We are for others
Simple peaceful soldiers
Prophet's messengers
Take glass of water
Nothing will alter
Sea is full of it and ready to cater
Love to live and propagate
Think of helpless and state
Their grief and plight to relate
So I am here
With you and forever
Will you lead me by holding finger?

Build Upon The Rock
Don’t build a life around anyone, but build your life upon God’s Son,
Build your life upon The Rock, God’s Cornerstone of Eternal Stock.
Through this life you will endure, on His foundation sound and sure,
By building a family in this life, in The Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
God the Father above sent His Son, to this earth below for everyone,
So men could move from shifting sand, to build upon The Son of Man.
Christ was sent to be a Cornerstone, of every family and every home,
In Christ God offers all salvation, God’s one and only true foundation.
Christ will become the stable part, of both your home and your heart,
He is the one part, you will find, that always gives you peace of mind.
As things in life must rearrange, you will find Christ does not change,
Unchanging Truths guide your life, when you’re on the Rock of Christ.
Christ will help you stand up tall, when others around you seem to fall,
As they stumble through life’s sand, Christ holds you up with His Hand.
He’s the one to build a future on, when all others have come and gone,
And a future that extends well beyond, this present earth that we’re on.
When we choose to build our life, on the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
He not only cares for what we see, but Christ extends our life eternally.
He prepares for us an eternal home; a place that we can call our own,
Where we will live forevermore, with the Eternal Rock, Christ our Lord.
Wars and less education
The Arabs were not primitive and uneducated
Though education were limited
Suffered dominance under foreign rule and monarchy
Invaluable contribution to scholars and science without anarchy
Their suffering not yet over
For centuries catered the whole world and still
Facing the biggest onslaught and massive kill
No power on earth can weaken heir will
Let us praise and give them their legitimate due
World must open eyes and have sympathetic review
We have lot more to contribute for world cause and peace
Let them find heir own home and live at ease
Arabs have given a lot to world
They are facing complete heat and completely sold
No one lands ear to their plight and cause
Always at war without observing pause
They have been always crushed for international accommodation
Nothing is offered except wars and less education
They are kept under toe with threatening postures
Someone else is deciding their fate and future
World may not realize their plight
No one may grant their basic rights
Armies may march at will and kill innocents
Hardly something may be heard with comments
World may have to think afresh
There has to respect for their wishes
No nation can be put to shame
It is of no use later on to blame

Who Am I?
Who am I on this universe?
Blessings for others or simple curse
I rely on friend's observation and compile
Chose a path and pause meanwhile
Am I biggest beggar, bloger or server?
None of the above yet prove as a good writer
I read many articles and come across
Appreciate others but feel the loss
Why am I not like others?
How do they excel and come across?
I have left this to anybody's guess
As there are lot many questions to face
Let the poets claim originality?
Go on roof top and acclaim personality
Also sing in praise about contents and quality
But alas! The beggar soul betrays capacity
Ideas are definitely coming from some one
Built nicely and interwoven from any one
So real beggars are fortunate
At least they get some cash to relate
As the beggars collect their share in the evening
The opportunist poets get lions share in the morning
Get no where and bogged down when real time comes
No one may appreciate it fully when approaches time to welcome
I am clear as far as writing is concerned
I am not at all disturbed at what others do and remain discerned
Nature, sky and stars remain there from the origin of universe
We can pick many things from them of course
There is no shame in frank admission
As to reach out to people is our only mission
Now it matters less who reaches out first
They have built and have confidence with trust
I shall repeat and endorse if some ideas are really worthwhile
It may not be my original work to speak fairly about style
Yet some purpose is served to build love and trust
That is all we are here for and that vision is must

Live-in World
(charley foskett)
Producer for bonnie: charley foskett
Recorded in 1986 for the charity album 'it's a live-in world', part of the anti-heroin project. lyrics taken from careful listening.
Put an end to that long cold existence you've lived by
Let a warm and loving hand touch your pain
The part of you that is hurting, making you cry
When all the world looks like the devil in a 3-d frame
Pull down defences
Open up your heart
Don't build defences
'cause they'll only fall apart
'cause it's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
It's alright by me
So why can't you see
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
Alone and afraid and it's all inside
It starts breaking
And we cry from inside
But the help is denied once again
And your heart has grown cold
'cause you've grown so old
Bones aching
You'll be a slave to that white-powered whore
'til the dragon is slayed
'cause it's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
It's alright by me
So why can't you see
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
Etc...repeat and fade...

Lie and canard
It is blatant lie and canard
No one is allowed to say a word
Especially for a saint and father of nation
How can such lies are spread for any such relation
A lie can not become truth
Thousands of tales can not prove
A father of nation may live in our heart
We were give new light to start
How a nation can build reputation?
Can meet aspirations and live unto expectations
We need not show progressive world what we did
They have their axe to grind and find no lead
A legendry figure and respected world over
He needs no mention or special cover
The sun and its image can not be tarnished
They will stand high even if whole world is finished
Let historians search in relevant context
It should not be based to malign the text
In other countries it might have created bloodshed
At home we are fully aware and properly fed
Such books should not find even mention
It does great harm and spoils the relation
Modern world does not allow spread of hatred
When people are staving for the want of bread
Let us play constructive and true role for humanism
It has no place for gossips and criticism
The national sentiments should never be hurt
It is worst than insulting friend or throwing the mud
