हम ज़िंदगी भर ज़मीनों की

क़ीमत पर  ही  इतराते  रहे,

हवा ने जब अपनी क़ीमत मांगी

तो ख़रीदी हुई जमींने बिक गईँ

Throughout life we trumpeted

Worth of the lands we owned

When air claimed its price

All the lands were pawned

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

रात  है  ख़्वाब  बुनती,

दिन  हैं  कि  उधेड़ देते…

इसी उधेड़-बुन में तमाम,

ज़िंदगी  है  बीती  जाती…!

Night keeps weaving dreams,

and the days untwine them

In this turmoil only, whole

Life  keeps  on  passing..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

आस्मां छुपे  हैं  कई मुझ में,

मैं कायनात का इक जरिया हूँ,

मैं दरिया  की  एक बूँद नहीं,

एक  बूँद  में  पूरा दरिया हूँ..!

Many skies are hidden in me,

I’m the  tool of  the  universe

I’m not just a drop of the river

But the whole river in a drop!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

हो सकता  है  कि  लोग मुझे

शायद कमज़ोर समझते  हों,

क्योंकि मेरे पास ताक़त नहीं है

किसी  का  दिल  तोड़ने  की…

May be people consider me

as  weak  hearted  since

I don’t  have the  strength

to break someone’s heart!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

तोड़ दे अपनी ये बेगानी खामोशी

कुछ  तो  दिलों  की बात  होने दे

जैसी होती है अक्सर खयालों में

वैसी ही  एक मुलाकात तो होने दे

Break your strange silence

Just have some hearty talks

Let’s meet up in reality as we

often meet  in  the thoughts..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

इस सफ़र में नींद

ऐसी खो गई…

हम तो न सोये,

रात थक कर सो गई..!

During this journey, the sleep

was  lost in  such  a way

That I could  not  sleep,

but the tired night slept off!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

ले चल ऐ ज़िंदगी फिर से

बचपन की उन गलियों में

जहाँ ना कोई ज़रूरी था

ना ही कोई जरूरत थी….

O’life! Take me once again

In those streets of childhood

Where no one was needed

And, there used to be no need!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

मैं इतनी छोटी

कहानी भी न था,

तुम्हें ही जल्दी थी

किताब बदलने की…

I  was  not  even

such a short story,

You were only in hurry

to change the book…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

कभी रंगों से इक नज़्म लिखो

कभी अल्फाज़ों से तस्वीर गढ़ो

कभी खामोशी की आवाज़ सुनो

कभी चुप्पी की इबारत भी पढ़ो

Sometime write a

poem with colours

Try ever making a 

picture with the words

Sometime listen to

the voice of reticence

Once in a while read

the narrative of silence..!

Misguided are those, who

never venture out of house….!

मुझ पर तुम्हारा प्यार

यूँ ही उधार रहने दो,

बड़ा ख़ूब है ये कर्ज़,

मुझे कर्ज़दार रहने दो..

Just simply let your love be

a perennial  loan  on  me…

This loan is so very special

Let me be a borrower only..!

devouring the relationships…

फ़र्क़ चेहरे की हँसी पर

सिर्फ इतना सा पाते हैं

पहले  खुद आती  थी

अब  लाना पड़ता  है..!

Difference in smile on the

Earlier it’d come on its own

Now it has to be brought..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

ऐसा बना लिया हमने,

बस मुस्कुरा दिया हमने…

such  that,  even  if

Someone says anything,

I simply give a smile…!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

न जाने किस मोड़ पे ले आई

हमें तेरी ये बेकाबू तलब,

सर पे चिलचिलाती धूप

और राह में इक साया भी नहीं!

Don’t know where this unruly

craving for you has brought me,

Scorching sun up in the sky

And, not a shade in the path..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

ठुकराया था हमने भी

बहुतों को तेरी खातिर..

तुझसे फासला भी शायद

उनकी बद्दुआओं का असर है

I too had rejected many

of  them  for  your sake, 

Distance from you, perhaps,

is the effect of their curse!

“वैजू सारखं वागायला जमत नाही ग आपल्याला. ती कशी कुणी चौकस भेटलं की तिच्या लेकीच्या उत्तम करिअरबद्दल कौतुकाने बोलत सुटते. विचारणार्याची कोरडी काळजी ओठावर यायला संधीच देत नाही.” उषाने त्यांच्या मैत्रिणीचा वैजूचा दाखला देत म्हटलं.

“हो ना! वैजू म्हणते की, ‘लोकांना सतत काहीतरी चघळायला हवं असतं. आपण कशाला त्यांचं च्युइन्गम व्हायचं? आपल्या काळजातलं कुसळ दाखवायचं?”

“बरोबरच आहे तिचं. पण….” म्हणत दोघी  गप्पच बसल्या.  आपापल्या विचारात मग्न झाल्या आणि मग निमूट घरी निघाल्या

* * *

लॅच् की ने दरवाजा उघडल्याचा आवाज आल्यावर उषाने घाईघाईने पुढ्यातली भाजी आवरायला घेतली.

“शी! काय पसारा केलायस आई माझ्या खोलीत.” पर्स ठेवता ठेवता मानसीने शेरा मारलाच.

“हे मॅच बघताहेत आमच्या रूम मध्ये. म्हणून मालिका बघायला मी इथे बसले भाजी निवडत.” उषाने खालच्या मानेने म्हटलं.

“आवर ते सगळं लवकर” मानसीच्या आवाजातून बासगिरी डोकावलीच.

काल मॉलमधून आणलेले ड्रेस घालून बघताना मानसीने खोलीभर टाकलेला पिशव्या, हँगर्स, पिनान्चा पसारा उषाने आज सकाळीच आवरला होता. मुकाट्याने भाजीचा पसारा आवरताना तिने डोळ्यातलं पाणीसुद्धा आवरलं…..

☆ English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of  Anonymous litterateur of Social Media# 46☆

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

सुई की फितरत तो बस

सिर्फ चुभने  की  ही  थी

क्या साथ मिला धागे का,

बस फितरत ही बदल गई!

The nature of needle

was  just  to  prick…

In the company of thread

Its attribute got changed!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

जैसा भी  हूँ  खुद  के

लिये  बेमिसाल  हूँ  मैं…

किसी को भी हक नहीं

दिया कि मेरी परख करे…!

Whatever I  am, I  am

unmatched for myself…

Haven’t  given  anyone

the right to judge me..!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

इश्क़  करने  से  पहले

आ बैठ फैसला कर लें…

सुकूँ किसके हिस्से होगा,

बेक़रारी किसके हिस्से…!

Before  falling  in  the  love,

Let’s sit together and decide

Who’ll be entitled to solace

who’ll share restlessness!

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃

फिर  मुझे  कुछ  ऐसे

भी  आज़माया गया

पंख  काटे  गए  और

आसमाँ में उड़ाया गया…

Then I was also

tried  like  this…

With wings chopped,

made to fly in the sky

❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃ ❃
