Summer is shrugging off the school year stress like a cardigan that is no longer necessary.
Summer is trading in my work bags full of lessons, papers, and memos for beach bags full of superhero towels, sunscreen, and flip flops.
Summer is nights on the screened in porch and books just for fun, quiet except for the hum of the ceiling fan.
Summer is pool passes and camp schedules, library visits and play dates.
Summer is our backyard swing and sitting with my two children, talking about nothing...and everything.
Summer is blowing bubbles and sidewalk chalk, fireflies and fireworks.
Summer is a late dinner on the water, fancy drinks, no regrets.
Summer is peaches and cherries, watermelon and pineapples.
Summer is the smell of barbecues and red, white, and blue dresses, flags waving.
Summer is freedom.
Summer is renewal.
Summer is here!

Kabhi tu ne bhi socha hai k ye pyaas hai to kiyun hai?
Kabhi tu ne bhi socha hai k ye pyaas hai to kiyun hai?
Tujhy Paa k bhi mera dil jo udaas hai to kyun hai?
Mujhy kyun aziz tarr hai ye dhua'n dhua'n sa mosam
Ye hawa-e-shaam-e-hijraa'n mujhy raas hai tou kyun hai?
Tujhy Kho k sochta hun, Meray daman-e-talab mein
Koi Khuwab hai to kyun hai, koi aas hai tou kyun hai?
Mein ujjar k bhi hoon tera, tou bicharr k bhi hai mera
Ye yaqeen hai to kyun hai, ye qayaas hai to kyun hai?
Mery tan-bar'hana dushman isi gham mein ghul rahy hain
K mery badan pe saalam, ye libaas hai to kyun hai?
Kabhi pooch us k dil se k ye khush mizaaj shayar
Apni shayari mein jo udaas hai to kyun hai?
Tera kis ne dil bujhaya, Mery 'Aitbaar Sajid'
Ye charagh-e-hijr ab tak, teray paas hai to kyun hai ?
Agar tum justujoo kartey talaash chaar-suu kartey
Agar tum justujoo kartey
talaash chaar-suu kartey
mulakatein to mumkin thi
agar tum aarzoo karty
nazar hi tum nahi aaye
zyarat ba-wazoo kartey
agar yoon chohr jana tha
na charcha ku-ba-ku kartey.
na itney fasley barhtey
shikayat ru-ba-ru kartey
suno hum nahi thaktey
Tumhari guftagoo kartey.
Haan Mohabbat Key Hawaley Se Bohat Zalim Ho Tum
Haan Mohabbat Key Hawaley Se Bohat Zalim Ho Tum
Torr Diya He Mujhey Tum Ne Apney Waadon Ki Tarah.....
Sakoot-e-Shaam Main Goonji Sadaa Udaasi Ki
"Sakoot-e-Shaam Main Goonji Sadaa Udaasi Ki
Ke Hai Mazeed Udaasi Dawa Udaasi Ki"
"Amoor-e-Dil Main, Kisi Teesre Ka Dakhal Nahi
Yahan Faqat Teri Chalti Hai Ya Udaasi Ki"
"Bohat Shareer Tha Main Aur Hansta Phirta Tha
Phir Ek Faqeer Ne De Di Dua Udaasi Ki"
"Charaagh-e-Dil Ko Zara Ehtiyaat Se Rakhna
Ke Aaj Raat Chale Gi Hawa Udaasi Ki"
"Bohat Dinon Se Mulakaat Hi Nahi "Mohsin"
Kahin Se Khair Khabar Le Ke Aa Udaasi Ki"

Tujhe kaise bhulata main .
Tujhe main bhool to jata
Mgr tere taaluq se
Jo chehre samne aaye
Jo rastay samne aaye
Jo lamhay samne aaye
Jo rishtay samne aaye
Unhein kese bhulata main
Tujhe kaise bhulata main .
karib reh k sisakne se kitna behtar tha
karib reh k sisakne se kitna behtar tha.
Kisi makam pay Hum Tum bichar gaye hote.
Hum apna koi Aalag rasta bana letay
Hamare dil ne agar hoslay kiye hote.
Woh Kehti Hai -- Mujhay (Tab ) Waqai Tum Say Muhabbat Thi
Woh Kehti Hai -- Mujhay (Tab ) Waqai Tum Say Muhabbat Thi
Main Kehta Hoon -- Mujhay ( Ab) Bhi Tum Say Say Muahbbat Hai
Woh ( Tab ) Ki Baat Kerti Hai
Main ( Ab ) Ki Baat Kerta Hoon
Magar Jo Fasilah ( Tab ) Aur ( Ab) Kay Dermiyaan Haeil Hai
Ussay Hum DonOon Say Mil Ker Bhi Samaita Nahi Ja Sakta
Main ( Tab) Ko Pa Nahi Sakta
Woh ( Ab) Tak A Nahi Sakti...!!

Wo rulata hai to jee bhar k rulaye mujhe
Toot jaye na bharam hont hilaon kaise,
Hal jaisa bhi ho logon ko sunaon kaise...
Khushk aankhon se bhi ashkon ki mehak aati hai,
Mai us k gham ko zamane se chupaon kaise.....
Phool hota to mai us k dar pe saja bhi deta,
Zakham le k uski dehleez pe jaon kaise....
Wo rulata hai to jee bhar k rulaye mujhe,
WO meri aankhen hai, main usko rulaaon kaise.....
Kuch log itne achay hotay hain
Kuch log itne achay hotay hain
Hum inhen lakh bholana chahein wo hath uthtay hi samne yun aa jatay hain jaisay duwaon ki sorat apna Qaraz mang rahay hon.
A Mere Hamdam Juda Kab Tak Raho Gay,
A Mere Hamdam Juda Kab Tak Raho Gay,
Hum Se Khafa Kab Tak Rahoo Gay,
Tumhe Jaan Samja Hai A Mere Hamdam,
Is Jaan Par Karte Raho Ghe Kab Tak Setam,
Log Pathar Martey Rahe Mein Tooti Nahi,
Dekh Teri Judai Ne Aaj Toor Deya Mujhe,
Ankhoon Me Nami Rehti Hai,
Dil Mein Teri Kaami Rehti Hai,
A Mere Hamdam Dil Dukhta Hai,
Tu Jab Door Rehta Hai,
A Mere Hamdam Juda Kab Tak Raho Gay,
Hum Se Khafa Kab Tak Raho Gay...

Tum agar pas nahin ho to koye baat nahin
Hijr ki pyas main qatra bhi bohat hota hay
Deed k wastay lamha bhi bohat hota hay
Jin k milnay ki nahin door tak koye ummed
Un k kho janay ka khadsha bhi bohat hota hay
Tum agar pas nahin ho to koye baat nahin
Sirf ehsas ka dhoka bhi bohat hota hay
Jin pe hota hay maan, bohat gehra maan
Wo badal jayen to sadma bhi bohat hota hay
Phir khud hi palat aati hon main rastay say
Warna chalnay ka irada to bohat hota hay
Pas hota hay to chonay nahin daita khud ko
Door ho jaon to shikwa bhi bohat hota hay
Jin k kho janay pe kho jatay hain sab hosh-o-hawas
Un k mil janay ka nasha bhi bohat hota hay
Ab koye aur talab dil main nahin hay
Teri yaad ka saya bhi bohat hota hai.

The Last Week of School #SOL!6
Goodbyes hang in the air when it's the last week of school. The rip of tape being pulled from the wall echoes as pictures and displays come down, revealing bare walls. Notebooks are stuffed in backpacks, unused workbooks are debated- should they be sent home or thrown out? All the places where students' names hung, showing their partnerships, or their writing, or their class jobs- all of these are taken down. No more names now.
Some of the children are like puppies inside a gate, just waiting for the lock to be opened and to run with the freedom of summer. Not all children. Some feel a sadness and worry that school is ending, the structure, the stability, the knowledge that breakfast and lunch appear each day.
We bring to a conclusion a year full of learning. Sometimes with a test and not much else. Sometimes with a celebration, bagels and books and numbers held high showing how much reading happened.
When it's the last week of school, it's your last time to live in that classroom as a community. They will go to different classes for fourth grade and will not be together, in this way, under these conditions. I want them to know they were appreciated, known. I want them to know I believe in them and wish them success and happiness. Goodbyes are hard.
I write them a last letter, to place inside their Summer Writing Notebook. I share the lessons we learned from our read alouds, from characters like Ivan (The One and Only Ivan), Ally (Fish in a Tree), and Melody (Out of My Mind).
I think of all the ways I could have done better, all the things I need to improve. I tell myself I taught with my full heart and tried my best, but I know my best can always be better. Summer is the opportunity to read more and learn more, think more and plan to improve. But for now, I sort my books, file the paperwork, seal the report cards, and close the door on another year of being a teacher.

Ham ny ghazlon mein tumhyn aisy pukara Mohsin,
Ham ny ghazlon mein tumhyn aisy pukara Mohsin,
Jaisy tum ho koi qismat ka sitara Mohsin,
A� to khud ko �hi nikhara nahi jata ham sy,
Wo �hi kia din thy k tujh ko �hi sanawara Mohsin,
Apny khwa�on ko andheron k hawaly kar k
Ham ny sadqa tyri aankhon ka utaara Mohsin,
Ham ko maloom hai a� laut k aana tyra,
Gar nahi mumkin mgar phir �hi Khudara Mohsin,
Ham to rukhsat ki ghari tak �hi na samjhy,
Saans dyti rahi hijrat ka ishaara Mohsin...!

Bharam Rakho Mohabbat Ka Wafa Ki "Shaan" Ban Jao
Bharam Rakho Mohabbat Ka Wafa Ki "Shaan" Ban Jao
Kissi Pe "JAAN" De Do Ya Kissi Ki "Jaan" Ban Jao
Tumhare "Naam" Se Mujko Pukarain Ye "Jahan" Walay
Main Ban Jaon "Afsaana" Aur Tum "Unwaan" Ban Jao
Mujh Ko Ye B Nahi Malom Kahan Rhta Hai
Mujh Ko Ye B Nahi Malom Kahan Rhta Hai
Jo K Chalti Hoi Saanso Me Rawan Rhta Hai
Yun To Hr Tarha Se Weran Hai Dil Ki Basti
Bin Batye He Magr Koi Yahan Rehta Hai
Ab Kisi Raat Mei Jalta Nahi Koi Chiragh
Shaam Se Bus Us ki Yaado Ka Dhoowan Rehta Hai
Aks Us ka Nazar ata Ha Her ek Cheez Mein
Rat Din Bus US ka He Gumaan Rhta Hai..
Mujhy kitna sataate ho, . Mujhe Q YAAD aate ho�
Mujhe tum YAAD aate ho,
.
Khyalon mai Sawalon mai
Mohabbat k hawalon mai,
.
Tumhen awaaz deti hun,
Tumhen wapis bulati hun,
.
Jb koi nazm kehti hun,
Ousy unwan deti hun,
.
Mujhe tum YAAD aate ho,
.
Tumhari YAAD hony sy,
Koi sargoshi krta hai,
.
Ye palkein bheeg jati hai,
Do aansu toot girty hai,
.
Main palkon ko jhukati hun,
Bazahir muskurati hun,
.
Faqt itna hee kehti hun,
Mujhy kitna sataate ho,
.
Mujhe Q YAAD aate ho�
Ham jesa chahne wala phir kahan se lao gay,
Baat jo dil ki suno gay tu haar jao gy.
Ham jesa chahne wala phir kahan se lao gay,
Jaan dainy ki baat tu hr koi krta he.
Zindgi banane wala kahan se lao gay,
Jo ek nazar dekho gy tm hamen.
Tu har taraf sirf ham ko hi pao gay,
Yaqin apni muhabt par itna hai mujhy.
Meri chaht ko dekho gy tu lot aao gay,
Bari Baaton Ko Khayal Mein Na Lana Uski Aadat Hai,
Bari Baaton Ko Khayal Mein Na Lana Uski Aadat Hai,
Zara Si Baat Par Toofan Uthana Uski Aadat Hai,
Zyada Garoor Bhi Acha Nahi Hai Aisi Baaton Par,
Kisi Ka Naam Likh Likh Kar Mitana Uski Aadat Hai,
Lagti Rehti Hai Koi Dilon Mein Aag Si Goya,
Hamesha Lakriyan Geeli Jalana Uski Aadat Hai,
Mohabbat Mein Wo Sanjeeda Hai Kitna Dekhte Rehna,
Mohabbat Har Kisi Se Yoon Jatana Uski Aadat Hai,
Shikayat Karne Aaye Ho To Itna Zehen Mein Rakhna,
Sabhi Baaton Ko Baaton Mein Urraana Uski Aadat Hai
Bahut Tanha Hon Main Aaj Kash Tum Aa Jao,
Aaj Kuch Waqt K Liye Paas Meray Kash Tum Aa Jao,
Bahut Tanha Hon Main Aaj Kash Tum Aa Jao,
Kabhi Khud Ko Itna kamzor Na Honay Dia Maine,
Par AaJ Bikhar Gya Hon Main Kash Tum Aa Jao,
Kaafi Din Se Ji Raha Hon Bin Teray,
Aaj Nai Guzar Raha Ek Pal Kash Tum Aa Jao,
Waqat Ki Raftar B Jaisay Tham Si Gai Hai,
Tham Na Jain Meri Saans Kash Tum Aa Jao...
Bhulana ho jinhein un ko bhala kaise bhulatay hain�
Judai dene wale tum se umeed-e wafa kaisi,
Taaluq toot jaye jab,
Mohabbat rooth jaye jab,
To phir rasm-e-dua kaisi, Milan ki ilteja kaisi,
Bhanwar mein dolti kashtii pe saahil ki tamanna kya,
Ukhartay saans houn to zindagi ki arzoo bhi kya,
Ju manzil kho chuki ho uss ki phir se justuju bhi kyun,
Magar dil ne tumhein kis wastay se yaad rakha hai,
Tumhein kyun Dil mein aaj takk aabaad rakha hai,
Abhi tak main ne kyun khud ko buhut barbaad rakha hai,
Hawa k dosh per kyun nagma-e-faryaad rakha hai,
Judaii dene wale Meri qasam tum ko,
Tumhari bewafai, kaj-adaai ki qasam tum ko,
Mujhe itna bata dena,
Wafa ki chahton ki mashalein kaise bhujate hain,
Nishaan kaise mitaate hain,
Bhulana ho jinhein un ko bhala kaise bhulatay hain�
Seene Mai Tujhe Dil Ki Jaga Rakha Hai
Humne Ulfat Ka Bharam Sub Se Juda Rakha Hai
Goya Seene Mai Tujhe Dil Ki Jaga Rakha Hai
Dil Ye Chahe K Tu Kabi Badnaam Na Ho
Dekh Zikar Tera Hai Magar Naam Chupa Rakha Hai
Mere Jis Hath Se Kia Tha Tune Musafha
Dhoya Hi Nahi Honton Se Laga Rakha Hai
Ab Mai Samjha Tere Rukhsar Pe Til Ka Matlab
Doulat-E-Husn Pe Darban Beitha Rakha Hai
Juda Hogaye Hain To Phir Kia Howa
Teri Tasveer Ko Seene Mai Saja Rakha Hai �

On the Darkest Days, I Read #SOL16
On the darkest days, the hardest days, I pick up a book and I read aloud to students. My third grade students, restless with thoughts of summer, quieted as I began to read aloud. I've been reading Sharon Draper's Out of My Mind, a book that puts you right into the shoes of nonverbal Melody, an 11 year old with cerebral palsy. It is a book you should read, if you haven't already, and I don't want to spoil anything for you. I'll just say this was the part where there was a terrible injustice done to Melody. The air was thick with emotion. My voice wavered as I read the words. They were quiet. Then they were angry and outraged for Melody, right along with me.
These are the moments. When you get a room full of eight and nine year olds to ache with caring about a character who is very different from them. When they see we are all the same on the inside, despite any outward differences. When they forget that Melody drools and can't talk and kicks her legs out in excitement, because they've heard her voice, her thoughts, her heart. When you see the "other" and the otherness fades away because you know we are all just people, doing the best we can.
In the wake of yet another horrific mass shooting, this time aimed at a specific community, I can't think of any reading strategy more important than this, than this communal sharing of a character's struggle, building empathy through story. We nurture readers, not to have them check off levels along their journey, but to have them take in other perspectives, to question and grow ideas, to become a more knowledgeable person, and in my opinion, to become a better person. Reading makes you better. It makes your heart larger and fuller, more capacious, as Kate DiCamillo might say.
And maybe, because you know Melody's story, you won't point, or stare, or laugh at a person who is differently abled. Maybe you won't say insulting words to a person who chooses differently from you, whether in politics, in religion, or in love.
I don't have any answers about how to stop these horrific tragedies, like Sandy Hook, like Orlando- these times when innocent people are gunned down in movie theaters and night clubs and first grade classrooms. Honestly, I am terrified by it, and at the same time almost numb. Helpless, too. I sign petitions, I make phone calls to representatives, but there is this pervasive feeling that nothing will ever change. History keeps repeating itself again and again and nothing changes.
Yet. There is quiet in a third grade classroom, as students take in and feel the pain of a character in a book. Will this change their hearts? Will these times of reading together, of connecting around story, make them kinder people? I read aloud powerful stories because it is the stone I can throw in the water, and pray that ripples of understanding will come. It is the seed I can plant, with the hope of a patient gardener, that something beautiful will grow in time.
On the darkest days, the hardest days, I pick up a book and I read aloud to students.
Meri Jholi Main Jitne Bhi Wafa K Phool Hain Un Ko
Chalo Ab Aisa Karte Hain Sitarey Baant Lete Hain
Zarurat K Mutabik Hum Sarey Baant Lete Hain
Mohabbat Karne Walon Ki Tijarat Bhi Anokhi Hai
Munafa Chor Dete Hain Khasaarey Bant Lete Hain
Agar Milna Nahi Mumkin To Lehron Pe Qadam rakh Kar
Abhi Darya-e-Ulfat k Kinaarey Baant Lete Hain
Meri Jholi Main Jitne Bhi Wafa K Phool Hain Un Ko
Ekathey Beth Kar Saarey k Saarey Baant Lete Hain
Muhabbat K Ilawa Pass Apne Kuch Nahi Ab To.
Issi Dolat Ko Hum Qismat K Maarey Baant Lete Hain�
Jaisay Phoolo Ki Khushboo Ke Jaisa
Jaisay Seep Mai Band Koi Moti Jaisa,
Jaisay Sagar Ki Lahro'n Ke Jaisa,
Jaisay Aasmaa'n MAa Chamakte Sitaro'n Ke Jaisa,
Jaisay Paani Ki Unn Bundo Ke Jaisa,
Jaisay Phoolo Ki Khushboo Ke Jaisa,
Jaisay Shayar Ki Shayari Ke Jaisa,
Mere Inhi Kuch Khayalo Ke Jaisa,
Mere Dil Mai RahoGy Tum Kuch Aisay Hamesha
Ek Baar MasJid e Nabvi Me Khaana Takseem Ho Raha Tha,
BEAUTIFULL POST
.
Ek Baar MasJid e Nabvi Me Khaana
Takseem Ho Raha Tha,
Ek Shakhs Ne 2 Aadmiyon Ka Khaana
Maanga..
Jab Us'se Sawal Kiya Gaya Ki 2
Aadmiyon Ka Khaana Kyun?
To Usne Kaha 1 Mere Liye aur 1 Us
Shakhs Ke Liye Jo Kone Me Baitha.
Sookhi Roti Paani Me Dubo Kar Khaa Raha Hai...
Is Par Usse pucha gaya
ki unhe tum jante ho.
us saksh ne kaha nahi.
Us Shaks Ne Poocha Kon Hain Wo.?
Jawab Mila: Wo Hamare Khalifa
Hazrat Abu Bakar Siddiq (Razi Allahu Anhu) Hain...
Ussi Ka Diya To Hum Takseem Kar
Rahe Hain...
Main Tumko Bhool jaungi
Abhi Kuch Der Baqi Hai
Khizan Ke Beet Janay Mein
Gulon Ke Muskuraney Mein
Khushi Ke Geet Ganay Mein
Baharon Ke Zamanay Mein
Shehar Ke Jugmaganay Mein
Tumhare Lout Aanay Mein
Abhi Kuch Der Baki Hai
Main Tumko Bhool jaungi
Na Tum Ko Yaad Aaungi
Main Tumse Door Reh Ker Bhi
Tumko Jee Kar Dikhaungi
Tumko Maloom Hai Lekin
Yeh Sab Main Ker Na Paoongi
Kay Tumko Bhool Janay Mein
Abhi Kuch Der Baki Hai
