Previous Poem

jab raasta hum naya dhoond latey hain zindgi ka
purany raaston pe chalnay ki yaad kabhi aati hai

talaak de kar jab hum nayi shaadi kar latey hain
pehli dulhan ki yaad bhi dil main kabhi aati hai

desh cHod kar videsh main kab tak bhi raho
apne desh ki yaad dil se nikal nahin paati hai

aisi yaadoN main paDne k kya faida 'Ravi'
jo ho chuka vo ho chuka, socho asliyat kya kehti hai

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM

Inspired by

Intrusion - Poem by Denise Levertov

Autoplay next video
After I had cut off my hands
and grown new ones

something my former hands had longed for
came and asked to be rocked.

After my plucked out eyes
had withered, and new ones grown

something my former eyes had wept for
came asking to be pitied.

-Denise Levertov
