 ☆ Self-Review First…☆

 ☆ ☆

Someone said that

If you judge others

Then first

place a mirror in

front of you…

☆

Hence, that being so…

Make a comment

on yourself first

Then waste your

time on others…

 ☆☆

किसी ने फरमाया कि

दूसरों पर अगर

तब्सिरा कीजिए तो 

पहले सामने आईना

रख लिए करिए

☆

इसीलिए …

इक तब्सिरा अपने

आप पर कीजिए

फिर औरों पर वक्त

जाया किया करिए …

 ☆☆☆☆☆

☆ Matrix of Love…☆

Love has a different

calculations altogether,

It just happens in a moment,

but lasts for a lifetime..!

 ☆☆

इश्क़ का भी एक

अलग ही हिसाब है,

फलभर में हो जाता है,

उम्र भर के लिए…!

 ☆☆☆☆☆

 ☆ Untrue Dreams ☆

 ☆☆

Dreams may be false  

But at least

they make me meet

you every day…!

 ☆☆

ख़्वाब झूठे ही सही

मगर कम से कम 

तुमसे  मुलाक़ात  तो

रोज़ करवाते हैं…

English Literature – Poetry ☆ The Grey Lights# 16 – “To whom…” ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments

Shri Ashish Mulay

? The Grey Lights# 16 ?

☆ – “To whom…” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

To whom shall I bow down to

a story, a man or to an animal

a picture, the stars or a carnival

for they are all fall-able

 

To whom shall I bow down to

the gold, a stone or to myself

the diamond, the light or the darkness

for they are all truly meaningless

 

To the existence I shall bow down to

the birth, the life and the death

an energy, the synergy and the destruction

for they never go, out of the construction..

We present Capt. Pravin Raghuvanshi ji’s amazing poem “~ God Incarnate… ~”.  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) for this beautiful translation and his artwork.)

? ~ God Incarnate… ~ ??

Wave dances with the wind,

Basks in the warmth of Sun,

Frisking with the playful rain,

Imagining, it  is  playing  on

the bosom of the vast sea…

 

It does not know that the wave

Itself  is  the  all  powerful sea,

Until it realizes the real truth,

it keeps on tossing up and down…

 

When it knows its real self,

it lies calm and collected with

peace and tranquility with itself

far from the uncontrolled rage…

 

The man has been sent in this

world to realize the eternal truth

That he is not the man alone,

but the God incarnate Himsel..!

English Literature – Poetry ☆ The Grey Lights# 15 – “Let them come…” ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments

Shri Ashish Mulay

? The Grey Lights# 15 ?

☆ – “Let them come…” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

 When you sit on the brink

brink of a trouble

it’s better to sit firm

and say ‘let them come’

 

They are going to come

come in your way anyway

it’s better to go calm

and say ‘let them come’

 

If no god can save you

how a demon can kill you

it’s better to be a man

and say ‘let them come’

 

What can they take from you

they can only give you

it’s better to give them back

and say ‘let them come’

 

If you believe,

Then they are destiny

if not, they are an accident

it’s better to let them pass

and say ‘let them come’

 

If they are certain death

then remember, all death is certain

it’s better to live now

and say “let them come…”

श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना

? संजय दृष्टि – कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते!  ??

भीड़ का जुड़ना / भीड़ का छिटकना,

इनकी आलोचनाएँ  / उनकी कुंठाएँ,

विचलित नहीं करतीं / तुम्हें पथिक..?

पथगमन मेरा कर्म / पथक्रमण मेरा धर्म,

प्रशंसा, निंदा से / अलिप्त रहता हूँ,

अखंडित यात्रा पर /मंत्रमुग्ध रहता हूँ,

पथिक को दिखते हैं / केवल रास्ते,

इसलिए प्रतिपल / कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते!

English Version by – Captain Pravin Raghuvanshi

? ~Karma is Dharma…~ ??

O’ Dear Wanderer..!

Gathering of crowd

Dispersing of crowd,

Their pricking criticism 

mounting frustrations,

Doesn’t it bother  you ..?

 

Treading of paths is

my Karma, –the duty… 

Endless traversing is

my Dharma, –the faith…

I am detached from praise,

censure and felicitations…

 

I’m perennially  embarked

on my obsessed  journey…

As traveler I’m ever fixated

with my righteous path,

That’s why every moment is resolutely followed,

as the adage goes-

“Karmanyevadhikaraste…,”

That’s ‘Keep doing your

Karma  without  any 

expectation of the results…!

English Literature – Poetry ☆ The Grey Lights# 14 – “Passion…” ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments

Shri Ashish Mulay

? The Grey Lights# 14 ?

☆ – “Passion…” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

I am not young enough

young enough to feel

how the passion kills

and what passion kills

 

to me passion is not

something that bothers

passion is but what

your existence harbours

 

passion is not what you show

but what others see in you

like a lamp that doesn’t burn

for the sake of giving light to you

 

it burns for the sake of itself

only to find another self

in darkness it takes the flight

till it reaches another light

 

no matter how vast the darkness is

and how alone the lamp is

it burns with all it has

the wick, the body and the oil

 

be spent like oil

be burnt like wick

be passionate like heat

 

be that lamp

be that lamp…

English Literature – Poetry ☆ The Grey Lights# 13 – “Make her Man…” ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments

Shri Ashish Mulay

? The Grey Lights# 13 ?

☆ – “Make her Man…” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

 If you can buy out

her share of mistakes

yet convert it into

your asset of strength

 

If you can enlighten her

with the ways of men

yet respect for her

crafty survival ways

 

If you can identify

you are her true pain

yet be the true friend

to stop her rain

 

If you can allow her

to be your sword

yet when her blade fails

be her shield

 

If you can walk forward

ahead of your time

yet stop for her

to catch up for a while

 

If you can make her

known for smile

when she is notorious

for her tears

 

and…

 

If you can

‘make her man’

you will become more

than ‘just her man’…
