Burhape ki do cheezain

 I was in my early twenties, and like any normal young man used to hang out a lot in the evening at the neighborhood corner with other boys.

Ye woh umar hoti hai jab insaan ko apne mustaqbil ki aur naujawani ke 'crush' ki fikar saath saath rehti hai

One thing I still recall (and a lot frequently as I progress towards old age), is an elderly chacha in his late 60s used to tell us

Mere bachhoN, burhape pe insaan ko do hi cheezon ki aarzoo reh jaati hai

Aik purani naukri chahey kitni hi buri kiun na ho

aur

Aik purani biwi, jis ki adat par gai ho aur chahey kitni hi bad-zuban kiun na ho
