Limerick R2 (Hindi) Young Lady Poem by Rajnish Manga
Limerick R2 (Hindi) Young Lady
There was a young lady named Bright
Who traveled much faster than light.
She set out one day,
In a relative way,
And came back the previous night.
—Anonymous
वह इक सुन्दर युवती थी सब लोग कहते उसे ब्राईट
पर स्पीड के कारण उसको कहते ‘फास्टर देन लाईट'
इक दिन घर से निकल पड़ी,
सापेक्षिकता में रही जकड़ी,
ब्रह्माण्ड का चक्कर लगा, आई वापिस पिछली नाईट.
(अनुवाद/ रजनीश मंगा)
Nice piece of work. Thanks for sharing this poem with us. E.K.L.
Wonderful translation! An amazing limerick.....enjoyed the humor! Thanks dear sir for sharing.....10
My love affair with limericks started some fifty years ago. The best thing about it is that they bring smile on the face of reader the moment he reads it without being offensive to a particular person. Thanks a lot, Dr Dillip.
Rajnish no doubt good effort, If you could use some other words instead of 'bright', 'light' and 'night' in you r Hindi translation that would have been better, However, do you know Bengali Language. I have some Bengali Poems. You can read. May I request you to translate some of them in Hindi language.
Thank you so much for visiting my page and showing your interest and appreciation for a couple of my poems. I agree with your suggestion that the rhyming words- bright, light and night- could have been replaced with their Hindi equivalents rather than repeating them as it is. I will try to revise. I am glad to know that you are also writing poetry in Bangla language. Sorry to say that I am not familiar with the language. Otherwise I would have loved doing translation. Thanks again.
Going back in time perhaps...I'm loving limericks...Thank you Rajnish.....
unless EK Louis reads Hindi, i think he thinks YOU are —Anonymous! i believe i heard this limerick in English decades ago here in the U.S. unfortunately i do not read Hindi (nor speak it) , so i can't critique your translation. do you have any English language poems on PH which you wrote in English? care to give me some titles so i can look at them? of course i could look, but i'd rather have you suggest one or more. thanks for sharing. bri :)
