 ? – “Don’t blink through” – ? ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay 

What makes you think

that you are not rich enough

have you ever cared

to see what’s near enough

 

Have you ever seen

what he has given

have you ever touched

the necklace he has woven

 

The necklace of constellation

that you don’t care

but it’s mere the stones

that you seek to wear

 

In forests of jades

he makes rubies blossom

in skies of stars

galaxies smile wholesome

 

All of this is for you

but oh you, can’t see through

feel his love, that’s for you

life’s short, don’t blink through!

रहती जड़ता केवल तब तक ही,

जब तक रहे यथास्थिति में समय-काल

सतत श्रम प्रयासों को अपनाने से

होता विकसित युग, पीढ़ी व देशकाल…!

 The inertia lasts only as long as the

time-period remains in the status quo

Adoption of continuous toilsome efforts,

develops the era, generation and country…!

 ☆☆☆☆☆

कोई  हम  सा  मिले

तो  हमें  बताना…

हम  खुद  आयेंगे

उसे सलाम करने..!

 ☆ ☆

Let  me  know  if  you

meet someone like me…

I  shall  personally

come to salute him..!

 ☆☆☆☆☆

मेरी इबादत तेरे से रूबरू

    होने की मोहताज नहीं,

हम  तो  तेरा  ख़्वाबों  में

    ही  सजदा  कर  लेते  हैं..!

 ☆ ☆ 

My prayer never depends

on your being face to face

I  just  prostrate  before you

in  my  dreams  only..!

 ☆☆☆☆☆

भूलें  हैं  रफ़्ता-रफ़्ता

    मुद्दतों  में उन्हें  हम 

किस्तों में ख़ुदकुशी का  

    मजा कोई हम से पूछे..!

 ☆ ☆

Slowly slowly only in a long

time I  have  forgotten  her

Someone must ask me about

fun of suicide in installments

☆ Betrayal 

हिसाब में कच्चा होना भी

बड़ा दगा दे गया मुझे,

उसने मुझे ज़रा सा चाहा पर मैंने

खुद को पूरा दे दिया उसे…!

☆☆

Weakness in calculations

too betrayed me a lot…

She loved me a bit, but I gave

myself completely to her….!

Life 

आप आए ज़िंदगी में, कुछ देर

ठहरे और फिर रवाना हो गए,

ज़िंदगी भी क्या है मुसाफिरों का

एक चंदरोज़ा ठिकाना ही तो है…

You came into life, stayed

for a while and then left,

What’s life afterall, it’s only

a sojourn for the travelers…!

 I walk a little bit away from

the traditions of the world,

I’m indebted to the shoulders

which carried my burden.

फिर मेरी नज़र का कसूर है…

Something must’ve happened,

you only are seen to me,

Is it the fault of the mirror

or the defect of my eyes…!

skills of fighting the waves,

But never knew that the shores

Try finding out, where have

all the “own” people gone?

चाँद आज भी शबाब पर है

चाँदनी भी ग़ज़ब की है

लेकिन आज भी बिन तेरे

Even the moon is in its full bloom

Even moonlight is also awesome,

But even today there’s a strange

anguish in my heart without you…!

श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना

? संजय दृष्टि – अपने वरक्स – ??

फिर खड़ा होअपने वरक्सता हूँ

अपने कठघरे में,

अपने अक्स के आगे

अपना ही मुकदमा लड़ने,

अक्स की आँख में

पिघलता है मेरा मुखौटा,

उभरने लगता है

असली चेहरा..,

सामना नहीं कर पाता,

आँखें झुका लेता हूँ

और अपने अक्स के वरक्स

हार जाता हूँ अपना मुकदमा

हर रोज़ की तरह…!

English Version by – Captain Pravin Raghuvanshi

? ~ Trial ~ ??

I stand up again

in my testimony box,

before my own image

to fight my own case…

In the eyes of image

melts my mask…

There begins to emerge

my real face…

Unable to cope up

I lowered down my

eyes shamefully

And, before my

own reflection,

yet again, I lose my case

like everyday…!

श्री सुबेदार पांडेय  “आत्मानंद” जी की मूल रचना

? गौरैया दिवस पर विशेष – गौरैया – ??

मेरे घर के मुंडेर पर

   गौरैया एक रहती थी

      अपनी भाषा मे रोज़ सवेरे

          मुझसे वो कुछ कहती थी

 

चीं चीं चूं चूं करती वो

   रोज़ माँगती दाना-पानी

      गौरैया को देख मुझे

           आती बचपन की याद सुहानी…

 

नील गगन से झुंडों में

  वो आती थी पंख पसारे

     कभी फुदकती आँगन आँगन,

          कभी फुदकती द्वारे द्वारे

 

उनका रोज़ देख फुदकना,

   मुझको देता  सुकूँ रूहानी

      गौरैया को देख मुझे

        आती बचपन की याद सुहानी…

 

चावल के दाने अपनी चोंचों में

   बीन बीन ले जाती थी

      बैठ घोसलें के भीतर वो

         बच्चों की भूख मिटाती थी

    

सुनते ही चिड़िया की आहट

    बच्चे खुशियों से चिल्लाते थे

       माँ की ममता, दाने पाकर

          बच्चे निहाल हो जाते थे

       

गौरैया का निश्छल प्रेम देख

     आँखे मेरी भर आती थी

        जाने अनजाने माँ की मूरत

           आँखों मे मेरी, समाती थी

             

माँ की यादों ने  उस दिन

    खूब मुझे रुलाया था।

       उस अबोध नन्ही चिड़िया ने

            मुझे प्रेम-पाठ पढ़ाया था

    

नहीं प्रेम की कोई कीमत

       और नहीं कुछ पाना है

         सब कुछ अपना लुटा लुटाकर

              इस दुनिया से जाना है

 

प्रेम में जीना, प्रेम में मरना

   प्रेम में ही मिट जाना है,

      ढाई आखर प्रेम का मतलब

         मैंने गौरैया से ही जाना है!

English Version by – Captain Pravin Raghuvanshi

?~ Sparrow…~ ??

At the parapet of my house

There used to live a sparrow

Everyday in morning, she’d tell

me something in her language

 

Chirping ‘chee-chee’ ‘choo-choo’

would she demand food grains

Looking at the lovely sparrow

I’d remember my  childhood…

 

With her flock, she would

descend from the blue sky

Sometimes jumping in patio

Sometimes hopping in yard

 

Seeing her flitter every day

Would give me spiritual bliss

Looking at the lovely sparrow

I’d remember my childhood…

 

Picking rice grains in her beak

She would take them away

Feeding her chics in the nest

Erasing their insatiable hunger

 

The chics would rejoice always

Waiting eagerly for mother’s arrival

With food and her endearment 

Chics would exhilarate madly…

 

Seeing the sparrow’s selfless love

Would make my eyes moist

Unknowingly my mother’s idol

would emerge in glistened eyes

 

Mother’s memories that day

Made me cry inconsolably

That innocent little bird

Taught me the lesson of love

 

Love is priceless, says adage

There’s more to gain; Coz

Everything is to be left behind

While going from this world…

 

Live in love, die in love

Fade in love, is all I learnt

True meaning of selfless love

I learnt from the sparrow only!

 ? – “She” (Maya) – ? ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay 

When I gathered the senses

I was born in your arms

colouring myself in your frames

only to lose my senses

 

wandering vibrantly

sometimes hopelessly

riding the vastnesses

only to find mirages

 

but when i sat in the crowds

just like I was in your arms

emerged through that noise

was your beautiful voice

 

I was so rare with the words

like the ocean is with the pearls

but when I dived into your seance

found me the poetry of chaos

 

had made me passive, the time

like river rock becomes in time

but when I saw your face in moonlight

I became masculine for the first time

 

you have become my wine

drunk on it, I broke my pen

now everything makes sense

for I have become truly insane
