Yeh Lucknow Ki Sar Zamin Lyrics
ye laknau ki sar-zameen ...
ye laknau ki sar-zameen -5
ye rang-roop ka chaman
ye husn-o-ishq ka vatan
yahi to vo muqaam hai
jahaan avadh ki shaam hai
javaan-javaan haseen-haseen
ye laknau ki sar-zameen -2
shabaab-o-sher ka ye ghar
ye ahl-e-ilm ka nagar
hai manzilon ki god mein
yahaan har ek rah-guzar
ye shahar laaladaar hai
yahaan dilon mein pyaar hai
jidhar nazar uthaaiye
bahaar hi bahaar hai
kali-kali hai naazaneen
ye laknau ki sar-zameen -2
yahaan ki sab ravaayaten
adab ki shaahakaar hain
ameer ahl-e-dil yahaan
gareeb jaan-nisaar hain
har ek shaak par yahaan
hain bulbulon ki chah-chahen
gali-gali mein zindagi
kadam-kadam pe kah-kahen
har ik nazaara hai dilnasheen
ye laknau ki sar-zameen
ye laknau ki sar-zameen ...
nibhaayi apani aan bhi
badhaayi dil ki shaan bhi
hain aise maharabaan bhi

These are old blogs that were textless I am adding a bit for posterity..
I was born at my maternal grand father Daroga Nabban Sabs home at Pata Nala Imliwali Gali close to Kankar Kua..my grandmother Nazni Begum took care of us as Nabban Sab had died .. and his immediate family he had two wives had crossed over the border ..
I came to Bombay it was so called when I was 1 year old.. have lived in Mumbai since than..I lost my root in Lucknow ,, and grew new roots here ..my wife is a Lucknow born nee Qazilbash one of the oldest migrant familes from Iran.. with their complete Shajrah..
Our marriage was solemnized by Reverend Kalbe Abid Saab it has stood the test of time ,, my alcoholism and what not.. I have been sober for over 17 years ..but photography and the internet became greater intoxication s..I feel..I tried cutting the wires but they wont snap easily unless .. I pass away ..

So... I am finished. WITHOUT TEXT! Whoop

Since Saturday 30 July 2011 tragedy hit me in the guts hard and strong, both my Nikon D 80 s died n their sleep.. I called up my dear friend Sundar Vetkar ace camera technician of Bohra Bazar to be told he was in Ratnagiri.. his hometown.
Sundar Vetkar is a great human being , whenever I give him my camera to clean the CCD or some minor flaw he wont charge me , and if he does it is a very nominal amount, his reasoning is that I use my camera to champion the cause of Humanity and I dont make money through my photography so he says in all simplicity he is ashamed to charge me..and he humbles me this great man .. greater than me in his humility... he humbles me with his words his kindness his love for me.
Yes this is a purely Mumbaikar quality..
So all of Saturday and all of Sunday I did not shoot a picture I watched both my grand daughters Marziya Shakir unwell at home and a little 14 days tot Nerjis Asif Shakir and didn't shoot her too..
I am hopelessly clueless shooting pictures of people by sticking the mobile phone on their smudgy faces ..
This evening I called Sundar Vetkar and he had come back from his hometown told him the malady of my ailing cameras , he asked me to come over to his tiny cubicle under a staircase at Bohra Bazar..in town..
Wife dear is fasting since four five days they open their Ramzan account before us men , accompanied me in the cab, I sat in the front and she at the back..Khan Saab was our friendly driver.. as I shut the doors of the cab, and passed Mori road basket weavers he said Firoze Bhai aren't you taking your usual shots I nodded I was shooting , only he could not see me camera .. he looked confused at this new invisible technology.. the traffic was bad as there was an accident at Mahalaxmi and the traffic was diverted via Arthur Road Jail .
I saw the pedestal of Khada Parsi the metallic boobed mermaids and I gorged the scenes the homeless sitting waiting for Ramzan and the elusive rain touched Ramzan Chand.. the chaos we took potholed roads and the JJ bridge I dont shoot potholes its the flavor of newsprint and pathos of DNA and Hindustan Times .
We reached Central Camera my taxi fare had shot up thanks to the traffic potholes my wife silently paid Rs 200..
We reached the famous camera lane I met Umesh Salgaonkar , a great photographer friend he gave me his invitation a group show near JJ art Gallery starting from 8 Aug..
I met Raju bhai handsome hunk of Vibgyor he asked me Dude where is your camera , I told him you cant see it but I took his shot..
I came to Reliable stores both Shyman Bhai and Raju bhai posed for me I took shots with my minds camera and moved on to Sundar Vetkars cubicle I handed him both the dead cameras told him to charge nominal as I am going through bad times bad karma bad luck he smiled nodded his head
..
Wife waited outside on the street , we decided to take the local from VT.. so we walked people whom I shot the vegetable vendors of Bohra Bazar looked at me as though I was a zombie.. and this young guy shouted out aloud Sahib tumcha camera kute ahey.. I pointed to my third eye on my forehead ..and he looked zapped .. he thought the rains has gotten to me and my third eye too..
We stood in the line , me my turban , my barefeet my rings and next to me my fast clinging burkha clad wife.. we took the Bandra local wife took her ticket and got into the ladies compartment while I sat with the gents..
A little urchin girl came tugged my pajama I took one shot she smiled I gave her some coins than I got up as Bandra had arrived her mother sitting near the door had a child on her wrinkled wretched breast that looked milk less to me I took one shot hurriedly .. and the Parsi gentleman with horned rimmed glasses gave me an evil stare I love Parsis but I did not shoot his picture.. I got off at Bandra wife followed me ..people looking at us .. I climbed the Foot over Mouth bridge shot the Garib Nagar plastic skyline..
As I reached the upper landing there was a Muslim beggar lady in a hijab her daughter both looked at me hoping the flash would pop up any moment I shot them in ambient light I shot them as tribute to Muslim Society on ChandRat .. I decided I would write a poem later ..
As I took the steps down another Muslim beggar man with two stumps stared into my camera eye and I took another shot sad as his Chand Rat was as bad as the last one last year and the one year before last..
Wife was getting annoyed she had her fast to break she muttered under her breath uff ab bandh bhi karo..
We than came to the signal near Lucky Hotel and the hijra waved out to me from a cluster of rickshas I took a shot , wife was now absolutely furious , I winked at the hijra .. and followed my wife through Jamatkhana Food lane .. the Muslim beggars stared at me crazily they thought I was fuckin stark naked without my camera I covered my imaginary shame but I took several shots .
Wife was all red fuming we parted at Jain Mandir lane she took her path homewards I came to my workplace ....I sat for a while congratulated my friend Mitul Thakkar he has become a father to Divan..I congratulated his wife Sonali his father my Savior in hard times Nitin Thakkar and Ashaji first time grand parents.
I left my workplace walked through Chinchpokli lane took two shots of the goats eating plastic on the dumps , and begrudgingly came out via a short cut to my house.. my lift man gave me a salute Saab Ramzan Mubarak.. Camera Kahan Hai..
And I just looked through him rudely and reached home .. than while the crackers burst outside I decided it was time to quit photography and get back to serious blogging on the net,..
With over 195564 photos in my Flickr photostram most of them textless all I need to do is change the Exif data add pictures without shooting anything for another 3 years..
Anyway Sundar Vetkar has promised to give me both my cameras tomorrow.. thank you for the visit on my camera less photo of the day..
माहे रमजान मुबारक, दुवा मे याद रखियेगा जी !
She lives on blocks of rocks on the side of a road , that enters Bandra Bazar Road or exits from Bandra Bazar Road to Bandra Reclamation , a road that touches the Bandra Sea Link via the Lilavati Hospital close to Rang Sharda.
This ladies story is in pictures at my Flickr photstream as a set by the same name..she sits in the same posture , she bathes she does everything under an umbrella that has gone to seed you can see in the corner of my frame.
She does not talk, sahe has n friends , she was once rich from an affluent family they say, what is her real story nobody knows I have been seeing her in the same place same posture since 6 years.
Even during floods , cloud burst heavy showers even this place was inundated she managed to stay afloat, she is homeless but she has a home the sky is her umbrella , she has no internet connection , she does not get newspapers but she is alive , she gets tea food from people around , I shot her bathing once but after the first initial shot I was embarrassed to shoot further , it shamed me and the values I have been bought up on , I am a street photographer a poet a blogger but I am human to suffering pain.. I have seen bad times so I know the meaning of pain and misery.
I am a pictorial storyteller but I need words sometimes to prop my story..and most of my images at Flickr.com over 200000 are textless , some became poems , and some I updated bought them forward to highlight a particular story that became topical.
I would be helpless without my camera that is a tool I use for poetry and my angst as a photographer..
Because of financial constrains I have not yet upgraded my camera the only camera I have used for several years , but I dont envy those better equipped than me , my camera tells stories, it had conked I got it repaired recently.
But sometimes I wish I was connected to a foreign news agency so I could get some funds and share my stories too, funds to pay the people i shoot , my aim is to get funds through my pictures one day and give the bulk of it to children of prostitutes in red light areas.. the most neglected childhood believe you me ..
Its been ages since I last went to the red light area to shoot , and this is possible because I am close to a few hijra commercial workers soliciting at the Mumbai Hijra cages .
She is a beggar girl I met near the Mount Mary steps..she disappeared completely from the face of the earth..
may she always be happy
may she always be touched
by the rays of love and sunshine
may she always be young aglow
may she have no worries
on her brow may she live
long become a mother
a good wife married
to the right fellow
such are my thoughts
as a father a grand father
from my heart towards
her heart flow a picture
of life as a poem
I shot quite some time ago
it was a blank post
titled sounds of silence
why I left it blank textless
poemless at that time
I dont know
perhaps it was comment
at facebook on this link
by my best friend benn bell
sound of one hand clapping
that let in a breath of fresh air
through my souls window
or was it something more
or am I just a muslim
a hindu a christian
beneath the skin
of man yes or no
or am I the shadow
of a human god
who does not
live in heaven
but below
in the darkness
of my shadow
I am humbled by my friends both at Flickr and Facebook without their love I could never dream of shooting pictures as poems their love their warmth nurtures my mind ..into using the words littered as garbage in my head as a poem of life..
So I dedicate this poem to my Flickr and Facebook friends..thankfully I dont have a single friend on Blogspot or Tumblr .
"Thank you some words hit me in my sleep .. the last few lines
the picture has been haunting me as I never saw her again several visits I made to Good Luck and Mehboob studio.. I hope she is lucky wherever she is.".
UPDATE
I saw her again two years back , near Bandra Bandstand she was begging fat out of proportion , mother of a child ,, she recognized me tried to hide her face ,, I was in a hurry and late for an appointment ,, I was going to shoot the Unveiling of Mr Rajesh Khannas statue at Lands End ,, I was invited by Ms Dimple Kapadia,,
