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,

Now as I approach my 90th birthday ( 27 June 2023 ) , I invite you to visit my Digital Avatar ( www.hemenparekh.ai ) – and continue chatting with me , even when I am no more here physically

लिखा है जो नाम तेरा








__________________________________________

कहने को तो ज़िंदा हूँ ,

सच कहु तो ,
अपने आप से शर्मिन्दा हूँ  !

जिस बुलंदियों को छूना चाहा 
उस तक तो 
आँख भी 
न उठा पाया  !

तुम्हारे पांव को तो 
छूने दो  !

मुझे तुम्हारी आँख से तो 
गिरने दो !

लिखा है जो नाम तेरा 
दिल पे मेरा ,
गमो के अश्क से तो 
न धो पाउँगा  !

ज़माने से छुपाने की 
कोशिश करता हूँ ,

तुमसे कैसे छुपाऊंगा ?

Your name is written

I am alive to say,

To be honest,

Ashamed of myself!

the heights I wanted to touch

till then

eye also

Couldn't lift it!

to your feet

Let it touch!

me from your eyes

let fall !

Your name is written

on my heart,

with tears of sorrow

I won't be able to wash!

to hide from the world

I will try ,

How will I hide it from you?
