Marusthala

Ek raahi apni manzil ki talash main,
Marusthala main bhatak raha tha,
Badi mashaqat karta apni manzil paane ki,
Par manzilein thi, jaise marusthala main mrig-trishna.
Har peer-paigambar, saadhu-santh,
Masjid- mandir ke saamne apna maatha tek aaya woh,
Par jisse dil chahta tha woh mil nahi paaya.
Ab to bus yeh aas laga baitha hai woh ki,
Iss marusthala main kahin usse koi thikana mile,
Jahan woh sukoon se kuch pal guzar sake,
Koi musafir jisse woh apna humsafar bana sake.
Musafir bahut aaye aur chale gaye,
Humsafar banne se pehle hi unki rahein badal gayi.
Toofan bhi aaye to uss mod pe,
Jahan thehar woh apna aashiyana banane wala tha.
Uske chotte se shamiyane ko ek jhonka uda le gaya,
Chod gaya marubhumi main usse tanha, akela.
Ab to usse yeh bhi pata nahi ki jaana kidhar hai,
Hai koi dagar ya bhatakna idhar hai,
Charon taraf hai ret hi ret.
Umeed hai ki marusthala ke uss paar,
Koi hoga intezaar main uske,
Raahi to bus chalta jaa raha hai,
Chalta jaa raha hai………….

My Life

I tried to understand my life, It made me fall in a maze, Where I was struggling, To figure out my own way, It was topsy-turvy, The puzzle made me cry. It seemed like a desert, Hot and dry, And I was lost in my life. I tried to understand my life, It made me drown in an ocean, With water all around, No one to see, I tried my best to swim across, But what it gave, Storms and rain, The waves got me, Took me to an island, Far away, Where I was all alone, Searching my own way. I tried to understand my life, It seemed I was thrown in a endless sky, To fight with the vacuum in my life, What I saw was a vacuum surrounding me, I was so small in the universe, I am just a small entity, Like a droplet of water in the sea, I was floating to find out a way, All alone in the endless Milky way. I tried to understand my life, With wind on my face, And bare feet, I had to go ahead to cut the forest as far as I see, I had to make my own way through the maze, I had to swim through the waves and ...

Veerana

Second one of the short poem series.  This short poem is about a lonely place which craves for someone to bring it to life. Veerana Mein ghar ke darwaze khidki khol ke rakhta hoon. Kya pata koi hawa ka jhonka kab aa jaaye. Kabhi koi chahchata, guzarte hue ruk jaaye To iss veerane main bhi chahal pahal ho jaaye. Deserted place I leave all the doors and windows of my house wide open, Don't know when a warm breeze finds its way in. Hope sometime a chirping passerby stops for a while To liven up this deserted , lonely place. Composed by: Priyank

Ashq

This poem is part of a series of short poems I wrote. I am also working towards translating them in English. The picture is one of my very good friends Aastha Gupta, clicked by her husband Siddharth Vishwanath. Ashq Hai koi dil ki tahon main , Jiski chikh sunai nahi deti, Woh ankhon se ashq ban chalak padta hai. Aakhir kab tak jeeta sunsan seene main. Tear There is someone deep within the cockles of the heart, Whose shrieks go unnoticed, Occasionally, it falls off as a tear from the eyes, After all, how long can one stay in a desolate chest.
