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,

मेघधनू बन खिंच गए



__________________________________________
वो भी क्या बैशाख था 
जब तुम बादल बन के आयी ,

दिल की मेरी मरूभोम में 
बहार बनके छायी  !

बिन बरखा के 
फूल खिल गए 
और 
मेरी आँखों से बरसे जो रंग ,
दामन में तुम्हारे, 
मेघधनू बन खिंच गए  !

मेरे दो हाथ के बीच 
क्यूं थम गया था 
तुम्हारा हाथ  ?

और 
तुम्हारे दुपट्टे ने 
क्यों छोड़ा दामन का साथ  ?

बाली उम्र की तुम्हारी नज़ाकत 
आज भी 
नज़रों के सामने है  !

बैशाखी तो बहुत आयी और गयी ,
खिले कुछ गुल भी ,

वो भी 
तुम्हारे ज़ुल्फो की याद दे के 
मुरझाये  !

मेरी तन्हाइयो 
तुम्हारे सूरोसे 
अब भी भर जाती है  !

www.hemenparekh.in > Poems ( Hindi ) 
================================

Drawn Like a Rainbow

what a crutch that was too

When you came as a cloud,

in the desert of my heart

It became like a spring!

without blessing

flowers bloomed

And

The colors that rain from my eyes,

in your arms,

Got drawn like a rainbow!

between my two hands

why did it stop

your hand?

And

your scarf

Why did you leave Daman?

your tender age

today also

It is in front of your eyes!

Crutches have come and gone many times,

Some flowers also bloomed,

he too

reminding me of your locks

Wither!

my loneliness

from your breasts

It's still full!
