श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना
त्रिशंकु 
स्थितियाँ हैं कि
जीने नहीं देती और
मेरी जिजीविषा है कि
मरने नहीं देती..,
सुनो सत्यव्रत!
तुम अकेले
त्रिशंकु नहीं हुए
इस जगत में..!

Suspended… Circumstances
don’t let me live…
But my will-to-live
doesn’t allow me to die…
Listen Satyavrat!
You alone are not the only
Trishanku*, -the suspended one
in this world..!
~Pravin
* ( Trishanku Due to the stubbornness of King Satyavrat, Sage Vishwamitra tried to send him to heaven bodily. Indra pushed him down, but then, the enraged Vishwamitra did not allow him to fall on the earth. It is believed that Satyavrat remained hanging upside down and was called Trishanku.)
