Mystical Time… ☆

वक्त का क्या भरोसा, आज तुम्हारा     

तो  कल  हमारा  होगा…

ये  वक्त  है जनाब,  क्या  पता 

कि  कब  बदल  जाएगा…!

☆☆

Who could unravel the time, today it’s

yours but tomorrow it may be mine…

Time is too elusive Sire, who can ever

predict when will it change…!

☆☆☆☆☆

 ☆ Visual Scripting… ☆ 

आँखों से भी लिखी जाती हैं

तमाम दिल की दास्तानें,

हर कहानी को कलम की

जरूरत नहीं हुआ करती…!

☆☆

Many a story of the heart are

scripted through the eyes only

Not that every single folklore

necessarily needs a pen…!

☆☆☆☆☆

☆ Life Story… ☆ 

है उतना ही खूबसूरत मेरी कहानी

में तेरा यूं आना, फिर चले जाना…

जैसा ज़िंदगी के खूबसूरत लम्हों

को अपने ही अंदाज़ से गंवाना…!

☆☆

Your coming into my life-story and

then leaving, was as dazzling as

losing the ravishing moments of

life in a truly awe-inspiring way..!

Shri Ashish Mulay

? The Grey Lights# 30 ?

☆ – “Curls” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay 

Are you aware?

aware of your power

or you yourself lost in it

for it is a maze for heart

 

Are you aware?

aware of that tide

rising in that untidiness

for it lands on bedrocks of mind

 

Are you aware?

aware of that net of darkness

shining so bright in sun

for no fish can escape it

 

Are you aware?

aware of your curls

interwoven like a life

for they kill straight through

If the destination is not found,

      the path remains meaningless.

Traces of longings remain in  heart,

      if  the hearts don’t get to meet…

It is not necessary that every

      relationship will have a name,

Some relationships remain

      nameless throughout the life..!

☆ –  बाल सुलभता… ☆ Shri Arun Shrivastava ☆

Yesterday my five-year-old grandson asked me “Dadu, you too have your dad.

I said yes, I have also.

Then where is he, dadu?

He is no more dear Bo-Bo.

Why he is no more, he asked curiously.

With a five-year bright grandson, full of life, I can’t explain him, what is death. So, I told him that my dad has become a Star.

But he was not convinced and said ” Men cannot fly because they don’t have wings.so he cannot be a star. I was unable to convince his logical questions.

Ultimately, I told him that my dad is in India and when you visit India, I will show you, his Photograph.

But can I meet your dad and touch him, innocent but curious child asked.

No, you cannot meet him.

Why, “the repeated queries doesn’t end.”

Because my dad is invisible so no one can touch him,

Why he is invisible?

I have no answer because I don’t want to discuss or talk about death, to a kid full of life.

HAVE YOU ANY ANSWER???

Temporal Habitude

जमाने का चलन

मालूम नहीं मुझे कि मिट्टी ने है

रंग बदला या  है कोई और वजह

तमाम उम्र अपनापन बो  कर  भी

अकेलापन ही काटते रहते हैं हम..!

☆☆ 

Knoweth not if the soil has changed

its colour or for some other reasons

Despite sowing the camaraderie, lifelong

Why do we, keep reaping aloofness!

☆☆☆☆☆

 ☆ Enigmatic Waves ☆ 

जिस नजाकत से लहरें

पैरों को छूती है ….

यकीन नही होता इन्होंने कभी

कश्तियाँ डूबाई होगी…

☆☆

The tenderness with which the

waves caressed my feet…

Jus can’t believe that sometimes

they only sank the boats…!

☆☆☆☆☆

 ☆ Resolute Loyalty… ☆ 

भले ही साथ रहे सारा ज़माना

बहती हवाओं के साथ…

मगर हमारी वफादारी तो हमेशा

चिरागों के साथ ही रहेगी…!

☆☆

Let the the entire world side 

with  the  blowing  winds,

But my loyalty will always

remain with the lamp only..!

☆☆☆☆☆

Fulfilled Expectations☆ 

मुझे यकीन था कि एक दिन

तुम मुझे भूल जाओगे,

मुबारक हो कि तुम मेरी

उम्मीद पर खरे उतरे…

☆☆ 

I was sure that one day

you would forget me…

I’m glad that you’ve lived

upto my expectations..!

English Literature – Poetry ☆ The Grey Lights# 29 – “Armour” ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆

Shri Ashish Mulay

? The Grey Lights# 29 ?

☆ – “Armour” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay 

Do not feel ashamed of your Armour

For this war is not of Today…

It started from caves

upto the mind it Paves..

 

Sword brings you the Fortune

Yet Armour makes you Fortunate

For Sword might Carve Fate of Nations

But Armour Shapes your own..

 

If a Sword is your Roar

Then Armour is your Answer..

An answer to Eternal Enemy

Enemy called Uncertainty..

It could be blasting Shell on side

Or a Dagger in a Heart from Behind..

If you Loose with Armour It’s Destiny

But Without it, It becomes Irony..

 

Be Patient with This Eternal enemy

For it’s not young man’s Race

But a Wise Man’s Chase..

 

Blessing lies in a Balance

For Sword marries the Victory

If with Armour then for Eternity..

Reconciliation

थक  सा  गया हूँ  मैं ख़ुद

करना  चाहता  हूँ  मैं..!

उड़ता रहा तमाम ज़िंदगी,

the wings of past memories,

A bird just got perished in the

flight because of loneliness…!

eerie noise in the silence,

I have experienced it by

keeping myself aloof…!

फिसलती ही चली गई

एक पल भी रुकी नहीं

रेत के मानिंद हैं ज़िंदगी…!

Just kept slipping away,

didn’t stop for a moment

Now only I came to know

that life is like the sand…!

Shri Ashish Mulay

? The Grey Lights# 28 ?

☆ – “Intoxication” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay 

See and smile there

sea of love holding

its boundaries here. 

 

Drink from my glass

as much as you want

but the whole you can’t. 

 

Dive in the waters

of this beautiful heart

you won’t drown in that. 

 

If you are red

it will be hell of wine

just flip the coin. 

 

if you are blue

it will be clear spirit

pick up your beat. 

 

If you are sad

it will be scotch

let it be your torch. 

 

If you are missing

it will be tequila shot

just be lost in that

 and

 if just being human

it will be a plain water

they call it tears.
