☆ Mystical Time… ☆

वक्त का क्या भरोसा, आज तुम्हारा     

तो  कल  हमारा  होगा…

ये  वक्त  है जनाब,  क्या  पता 

कि  कब  बदल  जाएगा…!

☆☆

Who could unravel the time, today it’s

yours but tomorrow it may be mine…

Time is too elusive Sire, who can ever

predict when will it change…!

 ☆ Visual Scripting… ☆ 

आँखों से भी लिखी जाती हैं

तमाम दिल की दास्तानें,

हर कहानी को कलम की

जरूरत नहीं हुआ करती…!

☆☆

Many a story of the heart are

scripted through the eyes only

Not that every single folklore

necessarily needs a pen…!

☆☆☆☆☆

☆ Life Story… ☆ 

है उतना ही खूबसूरत मेरी कहानी

में तेरा यूं आना, फिर चले जाना…

जैसा ज़िंदगी के खूबसूरत लम्हों

को अपने ही अंदाज़ से गंवाना…!

☆☆

Your coming into my life-story and

then leaving, was as dazzling as

losing the ravishing moments of

life in a truly awe-inspiring way..!

☆ – “Curls” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

Are you aware?

aware of your power

or you yourself lost in it

for it is a maze for heart

Are you aware?

aware of that tide

rising in that untidiness

for it lands on bedrocks of mind

Are you aware?

aware of that net of darkness

shining so bright in sun

for no fish can escape it

Are you aware?

aware of your curls

interwoven like a life

for they kill straight through

We present his English poem “Inevitable Destiny…”.  We extend our heartiest thanks to the learned author Captain Pravin Raghuvanshi Ji (who is very well conversant with Hindi, Sanskrit, English and Urdu languages.

– Inevitable Destiny… –

The mystical bird of destiny,

sitting far away in the desolate

gully of the inevitable separation…

Knoweth not what she looks at

in the fathomless nothingness

with the hollow eyes…

The infidelity of the dry leaves

pricks the stark silence,

actuating the excruciating

ever unbearable pain…!!

– Relationship… –

If the destination is not found,

Traces of longings remain in  heart,

      if  the hearts don’t get to meet…

It is not necessary that every

      relationship will have a name,

Some relationships remain

      nameless throughout the life..!

श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना

 संजय दृष्टि –  ब्लैक होल  

तुम फिर खींच दोगे

हमारे बीच के धागे को,

तुम फिर लौट जाओगे

पिछली या उससे पिछली

या उससे पिछली

या उससे भी पिछली,

अनगिनत पिछली बार की तरह..,

तुम्हारे लौट आने पर

मैं फिर मिलूँगा तुमसे

वैसे ही जैसे

कभी कुछ हुआ ही ना हो,

कभी सोचा,

हर बार का तुम्हारा पलायन

मेरे भीतर के ब्रह्मांड में

पैदा कर देता है एक शून्य,

अब,

ये सारे शून्य मिलाकर

भयावह ब्लैक होल बन चुका है,

जानते हो ना,

ब्लैक होल गड़प जाता है

ब्रह्मांड सारा का सारा,

सुनो,

हाँफ रहा हूँ, थक गया हूँ,

बार-बार गड़पे जाने से

कैसे उबरूँ मैं..?

तुम्हीं बताओ

और कितने ब्रह्मांड सिरजूँ मैं..?

– Blackhole… –

You will again draw.

the line between us,

You will again go away

like countless previous occasions,

When you return, I always

meet & greet you again as if

nothing has ever happened…

But, have you ever thought,

Every time you leave, it creates

a vacuum in my consciousness,

Now, all these voids have combined

to form a petrifying blackhole

Do you know. that the blackhole

swallows the entire universe..?

Now. Listen!

I am gaspingly asphyxiated

How do I recover from being

exhausted again and again?

You only tell me how many

more universes can I create..?

श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना

संजय दृष्टि – तुम लिखो कविता! 

उन्होंने कविता और

कवित्व की हँसी उड़ाई,

मैंने कलम उनके हाथ थमाई

और कहा, अब तुम लिखो कविता!

उनकी हँसी अचकचाई,

दृष्टि सकुचाई,

मैंने कलम ली उनके हाथ से

लिखी पक्तियाँ उसी

अचकचाने-सकुचाने पर

और उन्हें ही प्रति थमाई।

सृजन यों ही नहीं जन्मता,

देखना, दृष्टि में यों ही नहीं बदलता,

कविताओं के छत्ते से

तुम भरपूर शहद

भले ही जुटा पाओगे,

स्मरण रहे,

मधुमक्खी तो तब भी नहीं हो पाओगे!

बाहरी जगत के विस्तार का

माइक्रोचिप बनाएगी कविता,

जब कभी भीतर देखना होगा

उन्हें रास्ता दिखायेगी कविता!

English Version by – Captain Pravin Raghuvanshi

– You Write a Poem… –

They incessantly ridiculed

the poetry and poetics…
 

I handed over a pen

to them and said smiling,

“Now you write a poem!”

Their laughters ceased abruptly

Eyes got perplexly narrowed,

Countenance shrank embarassingly!
 

I took the pen, wrote intricately a

few poetic verses on their predicament

With some hesitation and bewilderment

They took the copy, with a coyish grin..!
 

Creation never gets born just like that,

Seeing never changes the sight just like that,

One may be able to gather plenty of

honey from the hive of poems,

But always remember, even then

you won’t be able to become a bee!
 

Poetry will create a microchip of the

expansion of the external world,

Whenever one has to look within,

poetry will show him the way forward..!

संजय दृष्टि – आहत

आहत हूँ

पर क्या करूँ,

जानता था

सारी आशंकाएँ मार्ग की,

सो समूह के आगे

चलता रहा,

डग भरने से चोटें

घिसटने से खरोंचेेंं,

पीछे चलनेवालों के घात,

पीछे खींचनेवालों के आघात,

रास्ता दिखाने वालों के पास

आहत होने के सिवा

कोई विकल्प भी तो

नहीं होता ना..!

– Indomitable Warrior… –

I’m hurt; Yes, I’m hurt…

but then, what to do…

Knowing all through

the weariness of the path,

Kept marching ahead,

pioneering the caravan…

Injuries caused by the

arduousness of the path,

Scratches caused by the

impregnable thorny routes…

Kept facing the ambushes

of the plotting followers…

Endured the blows of those

who kept pulling me back,

What options do the

pioneers ever have other

than combating the hurt..?

☆ – “Armour” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

Do not feel ashamed of your Armour

For this war is not of Today…

It started from caves

upto the mind it Paves..

Sword brings you the Fortune

Yet Armour makes you Fortunate

For Sword might Carve Fate of Nations

But Armour Shapes your own..

If a Sword is your Roar

Then Armour is your Answer..

An answer to Eternal Enemy

Enemy called Uncertainty..

It could be blasting Shell on side

Or a Dagger in a Heart from Behind..

If you Loose with Armour It’s Destiny

But Without it, It becomes Irony..

Be Patient with This Eternal enemy

For it’s not young man’s Race

But a Wise Man’s Chase..

Blessing lies in a Balance

For Sword marries the Victory

If with Armour then for Eternity..
