एक और साल बीत गया। Ek Aur Saal Beet Gaya. 2016 is almost over and we are ready to welcome new year 2017. The past year has given us more bad experiences than the good ones. Like the deaths of our soldiers in Pathankot-Uri attacks, suicide of Rohith Vemula , disappearance of Najeeb Ahmad , Anti-national row,  Jat quota stir during which Delhi's water supply affected, Panama Papers,  Kashmir Unrest , world problems like Brexit confusion, Trump victory, Yemen-Aleppo attacks, several racial attacks in America and demonetization in India. Winning in Rio, reaching apex at Cricket, Isro's achievement are some things to cherish. The coming year is near, I hope this would bring happiness in our lives and peace in the world. I have tried to compile all events of the year in this Hindi poem. Happy New Year 2017 to all .   बीत गया-बीत गया एक फ़साना बीत गया, खुशियों की धुन का, ग़म का तराना बीत गया।  Beet Gaya- Beet Gaya Ek Fasana Beet Gaya, Khushiyon Ki Dh...

Merry Christmas - A Ten Liner When world celebrates the birthday of Jesus Christ we must also remember his message of love and compassion. World today is deprived of peace and humanity because we have forgotten the basic principles of care Jesus taught the world. Let's us pledge that when we celebrate this festival we promise to make this world a better place. Merry Christmas ☺ enjoy this short ten line poem with the message of Christmas.  In the world so dark, a night create spark, that fill the heart with the holiness. Santa in red suit, and his black boot, in small packets spread the happiness. let us forget all pain, our routines so insane, year long loss & gain, to kill evils of the world with togetherness. This poem completes 300 posts on this blog. 

हम आह भी भरते हैं तो हो जाते हैं बदनाम। (Hum Aah Bhi Bharte Hain To Ho Jaate Hain Badnaam) - Akbar Allahabadi The last sher (couplet) of this Ghazal by Akbar Allahabadi is very famous and often quoted in movies and routine conversations. This ghazal is a display of love and lament. He said that mere meeting eyes with her sparkle many emotions in him. He further praises her beloved and prays to god to keep away from love. In the last stanza he explains his pain that even her huge crimes get unnoticed (like leaving her lovers to die) while his mere sigh of love defamed him. I have tried to translate it and hope that you will like it. ग़म्ज़ा नहीं होता की इशारा नहीं होता, आँख उनसे जो मिलती है तो क्या-क्या नहीं होता। Gamza Nahin Hota Ki Ishara Nahin Hota, Aankh Unse Jo Milti Hai To Kya-Kya Nahin Hota. Not only secret hints and coquetry glance, meeting eyes with her creates multiple instance. जलवा न हो मानी का तो सूरत का असर क्या, बुलबुल गुल-ए-तस्...

Haiku - Winter Short days long nights, the sun is not that much bright winter has arrived

Two Minute Medley # 4 Two minute medley is my way of seeing happening around in poetic way. They are short and crisp poems two or four liners in Hindi and English. They may be in both the languages.  हर हिंदुस्तानी देशभक्ति अब सिनेमा हॉल में टपकाएगा, सावधान होगा पहले फिर शीला की जवानी पे कमर हिलाएगा।  Every Indian now show their patriotism in theater, Standing for few seconds before praising the vulgar. ##### Boardroom battles out in the open, blame game begins, blew in the air courtesy's token, largest group shrinks. ##### मुफ्त न खाना, मुफ्त न रहना, मुफ्त नहीं है प्यार, ऐसी खुदगर्ज़ दुनिया में तू बाटे बिना सोच विचार, कुछ तो गड़बड़ है ! कोई है गोरखजाल, Jio मेरे लाल, Jio मेरे लाल।   ##### destruction in Aleppo - Syria School, colleges, homes all turned to rubble, God Himself burst better future bubble.
