Friendship is not something that is
written on paper,
because paper can be torn.
It is neither something that can be
written on a rock,
for even a rock can break. But
It is written on the heart of a
person,
and it stays there forever.
Birthday wishes and blessings are
coming your way, my friend!
Aksar dosti karne wale,
apne dost ki tarif karte rehte hain
Taki wo unse juda na ho jaye.
Hum isliye khamosh rehte hain,
taki un par koi aur fida na ho jaye.
A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him I may think aloud. I am arrived at last in the presence of a man so real and equal, that I may drop even those undermost garments of dissimulation, courtesy, and second thought, which men never put off, and may deal with him with the simplicity and wholeness with which one chemical atom meets another.
