run into my arms,
as they have been forlon, for ages now,
run into my arms,
as it will complete me, i know this somehow....
...

लोग कहते हैं दुनिया बहुत बड़ी है,
मैं कैसे मान लूँ, मेरी तो दो बस्तों में सिमटी,
ट्रेन की एक सीट पर रखी पड़ी है |
...

When I turn the pages,
And flip through the notes.
My Diary makes me cry,
On the 'then made' quotes.
...

I'm a Phoenix bird, that's down in ashes...
Of life burnt down, by soul felt clashes.

The damages that wrecked, my palaces of hope,
...

नौटंकी न खोजिये, प्रभुजी कलयुग आय,
जिधर जिधर को नयन लखे, नौटंकी दिख जाए|

(Need not search for stage play anywhere, since we are in the modern world. Just look in any direction around, you will sure find some stage play)
...

With eyes open wide, and dreams dwelling deep,
I need to walk alone, with memories to keep.
I see my actions, are distant from the goal,
And steps too short, and efforts too meek.
...

jag mora bairi bhaya, beta bhaya jawaan,
kaise usko gyan de, bilakh pada kisaan.

ghar me do jug rot nahi, khaane moong ki daal,
mehengayi me saans bhi, lena hua bawaal.
...

life proposes,
then disposes...

life confuses,
...

7 बरस मे नींद से जागे.....
सात बरस मे नींद से जागे, जाने कैसी नींद मिली थी,
सब देखा सब समझा लेकिन, कलम की धारा नहीं खुली थी ।
...

Miles away from our home,

day in and day out.
...

Main maanga prabhu aapse, main na jaagun aur.
Na bhagoon dhan lobh me, bhool chayn ka kaur.
Diya magar prabhu aapne, jaagan ka abhishaap,
Kaahe karo vivash tum prabhu, ki main karun kuchh paap.
...

As a child we lived in hopes of tommorow,
In light of the times we wanted to see.
We loved the thought that we will grow up,
And loved dreaming of what we will be.

This article was written on the 5th of June 2008
(2nd day of internship, in Radisson. Reflection of what I felt about the place)

The life today, a contradiction to living
...

i feel so lost,
in the light of things
happening around,
that maybe i have forgotten,
...

I know I could have been much better,
I know I could have given, more time and space,
I know I should have shared my life,
I now feel in my life, that vacant space.
...

This, to the core, is a farmers plight, His son is soon to be a man.
Amid inflation, and all unrest, educate him? how he can.

two slices of bread, and pulses; seem out of reach,
even it seems costly enough, to simply try and breathe..
...

मैं माँगा प्रभु आपसे, मैं न जागूँ और,
ना भागूं धन लोभ में, भूल चैन का कौर.
दिया मगर प्रभु आपने जागन का अभिशाप,
काहे करो विवश तुम प्रभु, कि मैं करूँ कुछ पाप.
...

जग मोरा बैरी भया, खाने मिली न रोट,
बेच बेच सब गल गया, एकही मिला न नोट |
सुरसा सर पर चढ़ खड़ी, गारी देत हज़ार,
मन में प्रलय का दृश्य है, कैसे हो व्यापर |
...

When i was a child, And I got wild.
you saw me jump outside.

With every scold, and rooftop hold.
...

When life is a war,
That's not meant to end.
Our heart plays its part,
And begins to bend.
...
