NaPoWriMo (#29): Umad ghumad..

Today, the challenge is to write a poem  using words from some foreign language. I am presenting a poem in Hindi which is a foreign language to thousands of WordPress users. I am re-blogging it from my blog. Here goes “Umad Ghumad..”

Umad ghumad kar baadal chhaye,
sang unke vichar bhi ufnaye..
aadhe adhoore, kacche pakke,
kuch kachotte to kuch muskate,
kuch aansoon laate, to kuch gudgudaate.
kalam meri ruk ruk jaye,
kya likhoon aisa..
jo sabhi ko bha jaye..
sacche bhav…
par jo na mujhe rulaaye
na kisi aur ka man dukhaye.
sabhi mere apne hain..
jinse dukh sukh ke,
kshan sabhi jude hain..
unke haathon me kuch nahi..
saare pal, eeshwar ne gadhe hain.
e baadal..
apni boondon mein baha
aansoon saare le ja..
kar de mera man bhi hara..
kar de mera man bhi hara..
 
 

It means that along with the rumbling clouds my heart is also full of many thoughts. Some thoughts are happy while some are painful. My pen wants to write but only those words which would neither hurt me nor others because they all  are family. I want the clouds to wash away all my pain in the rain and heal the wounds of my heart.

 
 
 
 

NaPoWriMo (# 21): To be kid again..

Those carefree nights and days…
long gone.. 
The languorous dozing..
with wings to the imagination.
in that  warm winter sun,
The star-gazing ..
on the cool sheets so white,
in those breezy summer nights,
While sploshing, mum’s mild refrain..
in that heavily pouring rain,
puddles and small paper boats,
wrapped in floral raincoats.
Oh those days, I so yearn,
when fun was the only concern.
The carefree slumber, careless mud stain..
Oh, to be kid again..

उमड़ घुमड़…

उमड़ घुमड़ कर बादल छाये
संग उनके विचार भी उफनाये
आधे- अधूरे , कच्चे- पक्के
कुछ कचोटते तो कुछ मुस्काते
कुछ आंसू लाते तो कुछ गुदगुदाते
कलम मेरी रुक रुक जाये
क्या लिखूं ऐसा..
जो सभी को भा जाये
सच्चे भाव …….
पर जो न मुझे रुलाए
न किसी और का मन दुखाएं
सभी मेरे अपने हैं
जिनसे दुःख-सुख के
क्षण सभी जुड़े हैं
उनके हाथों में कुछ नहीं…
सारे पल,इश्वर ने गढ़े हैं…
ऐ बादल…..
अपनी बूंदों में बहा
आंसूं सारे ले जा…
कर दे मेरा मन भी हरा…
कर दे मेरा मन भी हरा….
