I built a fortress
to fortify my soul,

Now I call it prison.

-

"9 To 5"
Is a DEADLY prison,
"It has killed millions of DREAMS"
"Without even LOCKING the doors"

-

I know I m nothing, ya I m nothing- everyone know
I m just a Puppet, ya just a Puppet- u know ?
I m a Prison Bird, ya I m a Prison Bird-anyone know ?
I have also emotions, dreams - no one know

But still I want to live, reason- my God know !

-

Don't be in Prison of your thinking.
Just get Stuck forever or Express.

-

I have been
in this prison
for a long time now
and all I can say is,
its a four-walled capsule
with not much
space to walk.

The window is
in such a way that
the walls get the
sunshine and all
that you get is,
to stare at the
blue sky.

-

Flamboyant wings
Honed vision
Willing to fly
But caged in a prison

Heights to soar
Depths to dive
Caged in a prison
But ready to thrive

Behind the bars
Caged in a prison
Looking at the sky
With a firm decision

Caged in a prison
Walls with scratches
Dying of burns
Letting them know
Phoenix rise from ashes...

-

अब तनिक भी मन नहीं लगता मेरा, जज्बातों के खेल में।
कि तेरे इश्क ने मुझे डाल दिया है, यादों की जेल में।।

-

दूर था मैं सबसे लापरवाहों की तरह,
आजादी की कीमत का जरा अहसास ना था।
अब सिर्फ वक्त का तकाजा है महफ़िल में,
जैसे जिंदगी बिता दी हो किसी कैदी की तरह।।
