All the birds have flown up and gone;
A lonely cloud floats leisurely by.
We never tire of looking at each other -
Only the mountain and I.

The first episode of third season of Coke Studio Pakistan went on air. Recently, the Coke Studio has claimed a great deal of audience in Pakistan. In the first episode, I happened to listen to Zeb and Hania’s latest song in Farsi (Persian). It was mesmerizing and I simply loved it. From composition to sound effects, specially the violin play was soothing. With a little bit of googling, got hold of the lyrics of the song and felt like sharing with you and I hope you will come to love it too:

Bibi sanam janem, anaar-e-sisstanem
My love, you are like the sweet pomegranate of Sistan

Ba darwazae tajh Quran jayee sanam janem
Your being borders on the divine, my love

I bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers,
From the seas and the streams;
I bear light shade for the leaves when laid
In their noonday dreams.

I happened to read this piece somewhere; I don’t know about the author who wrote it but since it touched my heart, I felt like sharing it with you. In my point of view, in this piece the writer has beautiful covered all the aspects of a Police officer’s life
