ALEXANDRA SCHOOL AMRITSAR

Dedicated to my Alexandra Days aur kujh dost, jo kabhi dobara nahi aaye

Main yaadon ka kissa likhu to,
kuch dost bahut yaad aate hain,
maine gujare pal ko sochu to,
kuch dost bahut yaad aate hain,

ab jaane kaun si nagari me,
aabaad hai jaaker muddat se,
main der raat tak jaagu to,
kuch dost bahut yaad aate hain,

kuch baatein thi phoolon jaisi,
kuch lahaje khusbu jaisi,
main sehar me kabhi jo tahalu to,
kuch dost bahut yaad aate hain,

sabki zindagi badal gayi,
ek naye sere se dhal gayi,
kisi ko naukari se fursat nahi,
kisi ko doston ki jarurat nahi,
saare yaar gum ho gaye,
tu se tum aur aap ho gaye,

dhire dhire umar kat jaati hai,
jeewan yaadon ki pustak ban jaati hai,
kabhi kisi ki yaad bahut tardpati hai,
aur kabhi yaadon ke sahare zindagi kat jaati hai

Kinaron per saagar ke khazaane nahi aatey
phir jeevan mein dost pooraney nahi aatey
jeelo in palon ko has kar ae dost
phir laut kar dosti ke guzre zamaane nahi aatey
phir jeevan mein dost pooraney nahi aatey
phir jeevan mein dost pooraney nahi aatey....

- Harivansh Rai Bachhan

Aao phir school nu chaliye,
ose peepal de hethan baithiye,
mezan kursiyan te pher kujh likhiye,
pher madaman te kade Head of Department nu sataaiye,
pher Gopal Bhaiya kade Meena Aunty nu sherhiye,
Canteen vali Aunty kolo pher noodles kade Samosey khaiye,
ever hot and never functional water coolers to paani peen lai pher to larhiye
pher ground saaf karan to lukiye
classwork na karan to ik vaar pher to bachiye
morning assembly ch khadan to ik vaar pher bahaana laaiye
koi geet ya boli paa pher annual function vich nachiye
gaalan khaa teacheran di pher chori chori hasiye
luko ke pehle lecture ch pher to tiffin kholiye
paperan de vich pher to roiye
mil jaan jad result, bhangra phir to paaiye
library vali madam to pher jhirhkan khaiye
Chapel vali pichli gali da fer gerha kadiye
kisey madam nu glass paani da pher de ke aaiye
pher to Independence Day te Band vich shaamil hoiye
vekh kisey nu pher to hauke bhariye
dil hi dil ch galan do chaar kariye
parking stand ch kisey da scooter pher digaiye
aa jekar oh, vekh ke uhnu nathiye
jaande hoye ik vaari pher galey lag roiye
ek aakhri vaar sab kujh pher jee laiye
aao ik vaar pher schooley chaliye..

Dedicated to my Alexandra, and all the fellow Alexandrians.

Well its a very proud moment for Alexandrians - a dear friend, Swati Kundan - batch 2003, has made us all very proud by bagging 35th rank in Punjab Civil Services, and would be joining as Sub Divisional Magistrate shortly after training. I am not aware of any other Alexandrian going into the civils, if any one amongst us is aware, please mention and let us share this happiness. It is a moment of sheer pride and joy for Alexandra

School Life:
Wo Big gang of frnds
Wo boring uniforms
Wo cycle se school jana
Wo Silly fights
Wo teachers k naam rakhna
Wo Group photos
Wo homework na kar k jana
Wo roz ki pnishmnt
Wo P.T periods
Wo Rocking annual days
So many hands in a single
lunch box
HORRER XAMS
Remarkable marks
Terror report card
Self parents signature
Lovable trips
Wo bachpan ka pehla pyar
Wo Summer holidays ka intezar
Wo Aakhri board Xam
Wo Farewell
Wo sab ka bichad jana..
“SCHOOL”
life is just a heaven...
Remember your school life
once again

Hello Alexandrians! Came across something that made me feel prouder of my alma meter, so thought to share with my family! Savita Grover of 1974-76 batch is the HOD English at one of India's most elite and reputed schools - DPS RK Puram. How cool is that, Alexandrians rock :)

Hello Alexandrians, how about sharing your thoughts on

YOU KNOW YOU ARE AN ALEXANDRIAN WHEN.........
1) You have heard ghost stories about the hostel and spread some
too :)
2) No matter you belong to Boys wing or girls wing, atleast for
once during your school time, you become a die hard fan of
Sandhya ma'am and it goes for a lifetime then.

Happy republic day alexandrians!
