Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

तेरी यादों के साये

मैं होनी को क़ुबूल न कर पाया 
तूने अनहोनी को अपनाया ;


मैं तो आज भी ,
उस गर्दिश में गिरा हूँ ,

जहां ,
न तेरा आवाज़ है 
न आभास  !


है तो बस 
तेरी यादों के साये ,

मन के अँधेरे में घुलमिल 
आँखों से ओज़ल ,
तेरी यादों के साये !

अब क्या जलाऊ चराग  ?
न रही बाती , न तेल ;

बची जो मिटटी दिएकी ,
मिटटी से मिलने तरसती है  !

लौ तो तुम्हारी याद में 
सिमट कर 
बूज़ गयी है  !

==============================================

shadows of your memories

I couldn't accept what happened

You adopted the impossible;

Even today I

I have fallen into that mess,

Where ,

neither is your voice

No idea!

that's it

Shadows of your memories,

mixed in the darkness of the mind

out of sight,

Shadows of your memories!

Now what kindling?

There is no wick, no oil;

The remaining soil was given,

Longs to meet the soil!

the flame is in your memory

shrink down

The booze is gone!
