Never Lose Hope


Life is not always a bed of roses,
Life is not always a gentle flowing stream,
Twists and turns may crush your scholar mind,
Floods and fire may wash off your confident dreams,
All inviting memories and exciting moments
May get lost in the darkest hours.

But never lose hope,
Never lose your heart
Stand against the wind of time
Pick up the thorns on your way
and enjoy the inviting fragrance of roses.

पराया धन


ज़िन्दगी की पहली चीत्कार, तुमने गोद में उठाया
उसी दिन कह दिया लड़की तू है धन पराया
कोख से निकल कर आँख से निकला जब पहला आँसु
सबने घेर लिया हो कर बेकाबु
बचपन बीता थाम कर हाथ तेरा
कभी जाना नहीं क्या रात क्या सवेरा
घुटनों के बल चल कर खा कर ठोकर
चलना सीखा फिर आखिर रो कर
फिर जाना लड़की की क्या है पहचान
जब समजने लगी हर दिल का अरमान
बचपन में ही सीखा तू दूसरे घर की अमानत
वहाँ जा कर कभी किसी न करना बगावत
फिर सचमुच एक दिन कोई ले आता है डोली
लड़की से भर देते हैं उसकी झोली
छोड़ के मायके के आँगन को पीछे
चली दुल्हन ससुराल के चमन को सीचे
जिस घर में बचपन से जवानी का सफ़र काटा
वही घर आज उसके लिए हुआ पराया
ससुराल की देहलीज़ मान रहीत अपमान रहीत पार न हो
कहीं मायके से भी रिश्ते पर वार न हो
बस यही सोच जिए जा, करके पराये को अपना
कर दे पूरा हर जीवन का सपना
दुनिया कहती है - "लड़की तू है पराया धन"
कैसे बदलेगा दुनिया का ये नियम!!!

Poem on Childhood - Looking Back on Childhood


I look back on my childhood days
Everything around was beautiful
Hearts filled with innocence
Life was just wonderful.

I remember the silly games
And the naïve ways to enjoy
No sense no meaning to life
But still life was filled with joy.

My dictionary had no words
Like injustice, hatred, and war
There was no distinction
And never a feeling of abhor.

With sincerer honesty deep within
And the purest of heart
Filled with virtuous emotions
The childhood has gone past.

A painful contrast is now discovered
Between childhood and adolescence
The undulating moments of youth today
Echoes the reflection of lost innocence.

Poem on Forgiveness – Please Forgive Me


While journeying through life alone
Exploring myself deep within
I discovered a truth hard to digest
A truth that caused me on fire
We often hurt those
Whom we love the most
We flatter fleeting friends and passing guests
But put an insensitive blow on those who love us best
I now feel the hurt
Of hurting those who love me
Tears rolling down and a heart with sincere apology
Please forgive me for hurting you
For making you so angry
Not just because I am feeling guilty
But I just can’t abide to see you unhappy.

Poem on Love


Love is a sweet gift of God
I have fallen in love my Lord
Everything seems to be beautiful and charming
I wonder if this is a warning
Day dreaming is a regular feature of mine
Love tastes like pure wine
Everytime I try to study
She surrounds me like a buddy
The book seems to resemble her face
I think I have already lost this race
All formulas look like words of love letter
I think I could better
Someone says ‘wake up’ dear
It tells me that studies are more near
I am not even spared at night
I think I have no future bright
She disturbs me in my dreams
And makes me sleep in grass green
This is my routine nowadays
And I wish her happiness always.
