Love in the time of dictionary.com

I searched for love
In a dictionary
It told me what I was looking for
Was tender affection and care
I filed a tender
To do something worthwhile
Wrote a cheque to CARE
Then cheated with the spelling
And caught an infection
By some inspired rain playing
I felt happy for a moment
Wondered if that was love
In my feverish rumble
Then went off to sleep
Hoping that love would find me
Or else
I'd sue the dictionary.

Imagine a dictionary which gives you little specimens of the things it defines..

That dictionary would probably be called life.

Narazgi duniya se ho to koi baat nahi
Bina hare Khud se bhala koi naraz kaise rahe
