We present an English Version of Shri Sanjay Bhardwaj’s Hindi poem “लेखन ”. 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.)
The verbosity of life
got rendered speechless,
Death too
became dumbstruck
After listening
to my decision…
to go without hesitation
with the death…
Don’t know
what was the effect…
Together they both asked-
If something
is incomplete
We can wait
for a while
I smeared a ‘Tilak’ on the
forehead of the paper
with my pen
and said-
That’s all,
Just wrote today’s part…
Let’s go now..!
