*Tajvir Baloda -- my dear gentle oonth !!

A small Tribute!!!

It is with a heavy heart I recall the time I spent with Tajvir, as my cabin mate at INS Hansa Goa....

So many stories he could churn out every time one interacted.



So much humour he could extract out of ordinary situations.



Every friend/ Every person one is emotionally connected with also lives within oneself. Whenever we will go back to old apprenticeship days/Navy days ,we will find him there.

Tajvir was a guy who from 'A' term was close to me but a bit difficult to handle. Was thoroughly outspoken, kept nothing in his heart.

Somehow right from A term till CABS I shared a special relationship with him. He used to always reveal his mind to me on various issues. Used to ring me up almost every month and update on his son's progress in his career. He was very very fond of his son and dreamt big of him.

Though got into lot of issues in service after drinks, he managed to come out unharmed.

सुबहो आती है, रात जाती है


सुबहो आती है, रात जाती है यूँ ही


वक़्त चलता ही रहता है रुकता नहीं


एक पल में ये आगे निकल जाता है


आदमी ठीक से देख पाता नहीं


और परदे पे मंज़र बदल जाता है


एक बार चले जाते हैं जो दिन-रात, सुबहो-शाम


वो फिर नहीं आते...


ज़िन्दगी के सफ़र में 


गुज़र जाते हैं जो मकाम


वो फिर नहीं आते....SD singh
