We present his awesome poem ~ Enlightment… ~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 sharing this classic poem.  

☆ Enlightment…  ☆

☆

When enlightment dawned,

sorrow  became  the  succour

Source of love became genesis

of  benevolence  in  the  heart…

 *

Gradually the ritual became 

less excruciatingly painful

Slowly-slowly  the  song  of

the heart became the pacifier

 *

Now whichever way we go,

I keep finding a greater joy

Thorns became flowers and

flowers became the gardens…

 *

Sorrow kept on decreasing

with  the  passage  of  time,

The word that did not exist

became  a  renowned story…

We present his awesome poem ~ Endless Quest… ~ and Hindi version प्रश्न एक – खोज अनंत… 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 sharing this classic poem.  

☆ Endless Quest…  ☆

☆

Meaning of the life

Battle for the survival

What is its explanation

What is the complementarity

that is continuously on

The state of ‘no-answer’

probably is the only answer…

Escape from the truth

Dogmas of the destiny

Longing for the destination

Encounter with the fate and the

accounts of ‘Fruits of Karma’…

Desire for immortality,

deathlessness or eternity in

the cycle of birth and death or

the merger with the absolute

The infiniteness of the universe

Unanswered haunting queries

Finally, remains the same

enigmatic answer:

—the eternal peace…!

~ Pravin Raghuvanshi

 ~~~~~~

☆ प्रश्न एक – खोज अनंत… ☆

जीवन की सार्थकता

अस्तित्व का महासंग्राम

क्या है स्पष्टीकरण

क्या है पूरकता

पर निरंतर है निरुत्तरता ही निरुत्तरता..

सत्य से पलायन

प्रारब्ध के नियम

गंतव्य की निकटता

नियति से अप्रत्याशित भेंट

कर्मफलों का लेखा-जोखा

अजरता, अमरता व अमृत्व की चाह

जन्म-मृत्यु चक्र का फेर

या सम्पूर्णता में विलिनता

ब्रह्मांड की अनंतता

अनुत्तरित प्रश्न

फिर वही चिरशांति..!

~ प्रवीण रघुवंशी

☆ Ode of the Yore…  ☆

☆

The river keeps flowing in

the quietitude of the fields

But the stones and  rocks

chatter incessantly with it

* 

A cool breeze does blow over

the flow of this raging river.

Boat may  be  dilapidated,

but it still braves the waves…

 *

O’ friends! Do gratify with

a  spark  from  somewhere,

This age-old lamp still has

unburnt wick soaked in oil…

 *

Like  the heart  of  the ruins,

-a silent witness of the time,

Its pain may appear mute,

yet it chimes sombre melodies

 *

Though  the dusk spreads a

sheet of darkness over the town

But still  this mystical dark

road leads to the bright dawn

 *

Now, there’s no grudge left

in the name of melancholy

As  it  keeps humming the

immortal  odes  of the yore…

We present his awesome poem ~ Birth of a Poem… ~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 sharing this classic poem.  

☆ ❣️ Birth of a Poem ❣️ ☆

❣️

Sayeth me, whenever one falls in love,

A Poet is born sometime, somewhere

Deep within my fathomless heart

I reckon that even more than the more..

That the lover Poet starts giving birth

in the form of the  lovelorn  verses  galore…

❣️ 

Believe me, falling in love makes one,

a ceaseless, perennial river of poetry,

For sure, this is when the universe begins

to conspire to compel the new born poets

to compose the most enchanting melodies…

 ❣️

I wonder, if the poets are divine nightingales

descended in our garden of roses on the earth,

singing heavenly odes, enthralling the angels

With their ever romantic tone of merriment..!

❣️
