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,

बिन बादल आकाश से



______________________________________________________

एक तन्हा पिप्पल की छाँव में 
पड़ा है जो 
उस से भी अकेला पत्थर ,
मानलो उसे मेरा दिल  ;

यहाँ से लेकर जहाँ 
पथरों के पहाड़ 
आसमां को चूमने 
तरसते है ,

जहां ,
बिन बादल आकाश से 
सूरज की आग 
लपकती है ;

वहां तक 
ज़मीं नहीं ,
मेरा जिस्म फैला हुआ है  ;

जिस्म जो 
आभ को नहीं 
तुम्हे तरसता है  !

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

Away ,
some thousand thousand fathoms ,
away
from a lonely stone ,
under the shade of
a still more lonely banyan tree  ;

The land strewn far
under a blazing sun,
parched and dark ,

and rose to a hillock,
where the earth
the thirsty earth,
kissed the cloudless sky

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