Stargazer-forever - Stargazer-forever

tu koi aur hai, janta hai tu

samne iss jahaan ke ek naqab hai.

tu aur hai, koi aur hai.

kyun nhiiii

vo jo hai?

tu jahaan ke vaste

khud ko bhul kar

apne hi sath naa

aise zulm kar.

khol de vo gile

jo lagaye tujh par tu

bol de

tu koi aur hai.

chehre jo

odhe tune vo

tere kahan hai?

saamne aa

khol de sab

jo hai dil mei

bol de ab.

tere raaste

khwaab hai tere.

tere sath jo

umra bhar chale.

aa inhe gale laga

tu kon hai bata?

aa khol de

yeh gile.

I was talking to my dad about renewable energy and he was like “the only problem with solar farms is they take up so much space.”

And it made me think about a city and how much sun exposure all the rooftops in a city get and…why not just make the city it’s own solar farm by putting solar panels on every rooftop?
