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,

नाखुदा !




________________________________________________________________


नाखुदा  !

---------------

आश लगाए बैठा हूँ 

अब तो अगले जनम 

पूरी होंगी 

बची हैं जो ख्वाहिशे  ,


अब 

न तो है ख्वाब का जोड़ना 

ना ज़ंजीरों का तोड़ना ,

हम तो हार चुके सनम !


जिन्हे ना मिला हमसफ़र

उन्हें सहारा कैसा ?


मेरी कश्ती को 

ना मिला पतवार 

तुम्हारे आँचल का

तुम जो छोड़ गई मज़धार 

किसे मानु जीवन का आधार ?

बाकी बचा है खुदा 


उसे ही मान लिया है


नाखुदा !

Nakhuda!

I am hopeful

Now for the next life

will be completed

The wishes that are left,

Now

Neither is there a connection of dreams

Nor breaking the chains,

We have already lost, dear!

Those who did not find a partner

How to support them?

to my boat

no rudder found

of your lap

The laborer you left behind

What should we consider as the basis of life?

All that is left is God

have accepted that

Nakhuda!

ખુદા જ મારો નાખુદો .
-------------------------------
હવે આવતે ભવે ,
અધૂરાં ઓરતા
આશા ના નોરતા :

શ્રુંખલા ઓ સંસાર ની
હજુ
તોડવા મથું ના :

હાર્યા ને વળી હામ કેવી ?


તારા આંચલ નો
સઢ નથી તો શું થયું ?


મારી હોડી ને તો
હલેસું પણ નથી !


હવે તો
ખુદા જ મારો
નાખુદો .
