Paap (Sin)
not the greed of one's needs
not the lust of one's untold desires
not the envy of other's sacred belongings
not the vanity of the ones who never did succeed
not the fury of man against man
not the gluttony of the swollen minds
not the sloth of those who preach in the name of love
no, no sin must be above
the crimes of the body
cruelty of the mind
frailty of the heart
betrayal of the loved
mistrial of mankind
but
the sin
to condemn the innocent blood
by power of denial
of truth
its origins
its very existence
for the irony behind it
is in this world we live in
where the sinners are fewer than the ones
who think they sin every day
and the ones who have been sinned
every other.
Cos' If I have sinned,so have you.
thoughts from my second viewing of the Passion of Christ

If you sin, so do i, coz we sin together...most of the times...
anywez, machi, i think this deep twisted piece could have been titled better. i see you have sinned again by giving it a bollywood-ish title.
i puke when i see titles like Zakhm (wound), Paap (sin), Lolly (sucker) etc. if i see u tarnish ur work with such cheap titles i'll have to castrate u da...serious!
more thoughtful comments later!
Iyer
whats wrong with using urdu titles da?
personally i am fascinated by the language of urdu, its richness.
i might never get to write poetry in urdu, but can use some of the words. nothing to do with bollywood.
but you are right, some of the titles might not jusify the verse.
will give more thought to the titles.
looking forward to your comments on my take on sins. i hope the title didnt stop u from reading the rest ;)
we dont sin together da
we just do it in the name of sin
