In the world of Elders Part – 2 Mrs. Rajni Mishra ☆

She spent a whole week in this confusion. So far, Pari has not been able to think of anything new. Today is Saturday. They are all going out to visit the Royal Ontario Museum. Here, everything looked magnificent. There were big statues, set beautifully in glass boxes. But instead of the beautiful, unique items there, it was the guide who caught Pari’s attention. She was explaining the history of things in a sweet voice, and everyone was listening attentively. Her clothes were also very elegant: black skirt, black blazer, red scarf, and a nametag around her neck. A new idea came to mind! She could do the job of a guide by wearing high-heeled shoes and a name tag around her neck.

Back home, she had to share everything she had done in the day to her other grandmother Nani on FaceTime. This was a good chance for her. She put on Mom’s blazer and high heels, and made a name tag. She took a piece of paper, wrote PARI in capital letters, and hung it around her neck with the help of a woollen string. When she was all ready, she called Nani. She started telling her everything that she had seen, exactly like the guide. She also informed her about her decision to become a guide when she grew up. Nani laughed and said, “Wow! Pari, very nice. My little one wants to do this kind of work. Child, why would you become a guide? Your Nani is a professor. If you want to do something like this, be a professor. You’ll make lots of money.”

Pari was hoping that Nani would understand her feelings, as she loves her very much. How can she make Nani realise that she doesn’t know anything about what a professor does? Do children like them or not? How can she imagine doing something she does not know anything about? Her interest in doing a real job was turning into a riddle with no answer.

Suddenly, her eyes fell on her water colours and crayons, and it clicked in her mind that painting is her hobby. She loves painting. Why didn’t she think of that earlier? How foolish she is! Better late than never. Now she had something which would be liked by everyone. Once her parents had taken her and Chotu to the Art Gallery of Ontario. There was an exhibition of huge paintings there. They had shown her many of these paintings, and had said, “Look, Pari, the wonder of colours! How an artist’s hard work breathes life into the different colours so beautifully! The art of painting is an extraordinary blending of imagination and colour.”

Finally, she had found a new job. Nobody will object to this.

She made many pictures, one after another, and told her parents, “This is my final decision. I will become an artist.”

First, Mom and Dad looked at each other, and then they looked at Pari. She was staring at them. She couldn’t tell whether they were speaking together or separately. But the words were reaching her ears: “You’re already an artist, child. We like this work of yours. But your main job, your full-time work, should be something else; keep art for your spare time. This can be a hobby, or a part-time thing, but not your full-time job. Full-time artists starve.”

Full-time, part-time, spare time – all this was beyond her understanding. And what it meant to starve, she had no idea. Until now, they had praised those huge paintings; today their tone had changed.

Pari is very sad now. She had really tried hard, to choose her work. These elders talk about very big things. They don’t understand that she can dream of doing, only what she has seen and what she likes. How can she do something which she hasn’t seen and doesn’t like? They reject all her favourite jobs.

Now Pari has stopped thinking about growing up. She is good just as she is, and she is looking for her baby teeth, so she can stick them back in her mouth.

Solitude ☆

 कभी फुर्सत से मिलोगे

तो बताएँगे तुम्हें कि…

तन्हाई भी कितनी

शिद्दत से काटी है हमने…!

If you ever meet me

at leisure, I will tell you

With what severity I’ve

dealt with my loneliness…!

 हर धड़कते दिल को

लोग दिल समझते हैं,

इक उम्र बीत जाती है,

पत्थर को दिल बनाने में…!

 

 People consider every

beating-heart, a heart…

An era passes by in making

a stone into a heart…!

 

 बहुत मुद्दतों के बाद

तेरी तस्वीर क्या मिली…

यादों के पुराने ज़ख्म

फिर से रिसने लगे…!

 

What to say of finding your

picture after a long long time…

It triggered off oozing of the old

wounds of memories again…!

 मैं जब कहूँ

जरूरत नहीं तुम्हारी,

बस उस ही वक्त

तुम मेरे पास ठहर जाना…

 

Whenever I say

I don’t need you…

At that time only

just be with me…!

आज हलकी-हलकी सी बारिश है,

आज सर्द हवा का रक़्स भी है,

आज फूल भी निखरे-निखरे से हैं,

आज उनमें तुम्हारा अक्स भी है…

Today there is light drizzle around,

Today cold breeze is also swaying…

Today flowers are also blossoming,

Today they’ve your reflection in them…!

☆☆☆☆☆

बारिशों का यूं  इस 

कदर  लौट  आना,

ना जाने कौन है प्यासा

ना जाने कौन है तन्हा…

 

The return of

rains insomuch,

Don’t know who is thirsty

and, who is lonely…

☆☆☆☆☆

बड़ी  गुस्ताख़  हैं  तेरी  यादें

इन्हें थोड़ी तमीज सीखा दो

दस्तक भी नहीं देती हैं और

सीधे दिल में उतर आती हैं

Your memories are too insolent

Teach them a bit of manners

They don’t even knock and

enter straight into the heart

☆☆☆☆☆

कल ही तो तौबा की मैंने

शराब से

कमबख्त मौसम आज फिर

बेईमान हो गया

Just yesterday only,

I gave up on alcohol

Wretched weather got

dishonest again today

में डाल देते हैं…

Come, let’s just talk

by eyes only,

Words often create

confusions only…!

☆☆☆☆☆

 रात क्या होती है

हमसे पूछिए ना,

आप तो सोये और…

बस सुबह हो गई…

 

What is the night,

just ask me,

You just sleep

and it’s morning…  

☆☆☆☆☆

हर तरफ से…

सिर्फ वाह वाह मिले,

जिन्दगी …

कोई शायरी तो नहीं…!

Accolades would shower

from all over…,

Life is jus not ‘Shayari’,

– a poetic recital…!

☆☆☆☆☆

तुम्हें बहुत गुरूर है कि तुम्हें

चाहने वाले बहुत हैं और…

हमें ये कि हमारी तरह तुम्हें

कोई चाह ही नहीं सकता…!

You feel too proud that you’ve

too many people loving you

And me; that no one can

ever love you like me…!

☆☆☆☆☆ 

 अक्सर वही दिए ,

हाथों को जला देते हैं,

जिन्हें हम हवा से

बचा रहे होते हैं…!

Often the same lamps

burn our hands,

That we keep protecting

from the wind…!

☆☆☆☆☆ 

 चेहरा तो शायद मिल जाएगा

हम से भी खूबसूरत…

पर जब बात दिल की आएगी

तो फिर क्या करोगे…!

Face, probably, you may find

ever better than mine, but…

When it comes to the heart,

tell me, what will you do…!

☆☆☆☆☆ 

कितनी खुदगर्ज़ हैं

ये तेरी यादें भी…

मतलब-बेमतलब कभी

भी चली आती हैं…!

 

How selfish are these

memories of yours…

They just keep visiting

whenever they feel like…!

देख कर उसको

तेरा यूँ पलट जाना

नफ़रत बता रही है कि

मोहब्बत ग़ज़ब की थी …!

Turning your back

just after seeing him…

Hate is revealing as to

how intense was the love!

☆☆☆☆☆ 

भला कब है चिरागों के मुक़द्दर

में  सुक़ुन -ए- सफ़र…

उनका  काम  तो  है  बस

रोशन करना, फिर जल जाना…

When has the happiness of journey

ever been destined for the lamps

Their job is just to illumine others,

and then eventually get burnt out…!

☆☆☆☆☆ 

क़द्र  वो  है  जो

मौजूदगी में हो,

बाद में होने वाले को

तो पछतावा कहते हैं…!

Reverence is what is shown

in the physical presence,

The one that is accorded

later on is called remorse…!

☆☆☆☆☆

कोई तो सुलह करा दे

जिंदगी की उलझनों से…

बड़ी तलब लगी है,

आज मुस्कुराने की…!

Will someone help reconcile

with the complexities of life

As there is a massive

urge of smiling today…!
