Few Words, Once Again….

-

As I mentioned in this this post of mine that I am not feeling so well mentally. Though the accident's wounds are also giving a lot of pain but somehow, that seems to be negligible in front of some which are more deeper than on the body. I was asked a question from some one who commented over a post of mine. I believe the answer of his question is far too big to be covered as a fellow comment only. I shall try to write the reply of mine of that question very soon.

I am not at all a poet/never was and I doubt I ever will be one even but at times, I do sit and write some loosely coupled pieces which ,I am not sure can be actually called true poetry or not. Whatever they mean to others, they mean a lot to me. If you think that they no where stand near to what is quality poetry than you are absolutely right and no where you will find me claiming them to be one even! Its the same which is true for my posts even. They are not to change this world but are the reflections of my thoughts about certain things. Anyways, in case , you have not read before the "random words" I wrote , here they are.

Few Words

Once Again

Few Words, Again

Few Word, Yet Again

I am not sure now how much good they are( I am sure that they are quite bad in the terms of poetic standards though). I sat last night and while reading some old stuff which I have stored with me, I once again dared to write. Once again, I am not sure how it has come up. These are in Hindi, I shall translate them in English in a while. Have a read.

Ik khushi ki khwahish par milenge itne gum , socha na tha!
bewafai ki khabar to thi, par bedard bhi honge wo, socha na tha!

And here is the meaning in English,

Upon wishing just one smile, I would get so many cries, never imagined that!

I knew that her love is artificial but she would be so cruel, never imagined that!

Here is the 2nd one, first in Hindi,

Usi ne har mod par tanha kiya,
Jis ko hath thama kar humsafar banaya tha!
Usi ne kar diya neelam pyar mere sare-bazar!
Jis ko roshni dene k liye maine apna ghar tak jalaya tha!

And here is its meaning in English,

He only left me alone on every step,

Whom I chose to be my partner by letting him hold my hand!

He only auctioned and sold my love,

Whom to give light, I even burnt my own home!

I am not going to explain what they signify. I leave it over you to understand the meaning of both. If you understand what's love and the pains of it, you would be able to understand the meanings completely.

A Poetic MasterPiece By Faraz.....

-
I am a big fan of good poetry. I am not a poet myself  but where ever I do find anything good written, I try to collect and share it. Surely enough, my first preference would always be Punjabi poetry. But there is no such thing that I wont read from any where else. Whatever is good, I try to make sure that I don't miss it! There are some poets which have created history with their writings. Late Ahmed Faraz is among those handful which wrote timeless pieces from his pen. Saying anything about him would like showing torch to the sun. So without wasting any more time, I would like to share a poetic masterpiece from him which I read today only and instantly fell in love with it. This is in Hindi and I shall translate it English in a while. Please note, this does has lots of words from Urdu as well.I shall put the meanings of those words in the end of both Hindi and English versions. First, in Hindi, Dost ban kar bhi nahin saath nibhane wala, Wohi andaaz hai jaalim ka jamane...

Feelings Revealed Truly & Musically....

In music, out of the most pure forms of it, one is Qawalli . This is that form of music which is sung by the people who are not mere singers but devotees of God. This form of music was not a part of commercial music industry some time ago but due to its magic, its now very common to hear this in almost every where. Despite its used now in the commercial music industry, still the original form of it with minimum music instruments and claps of the singers while singing is the most popular one and remains untouchable. There are many singers who sing this form of music but some have made it a household name due to their singing. Late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan   is among those very few who singers who are known as the masters of this devine music form. Out of millions of Qawalli songs available, there are some which hit straight in the heart. There is one that I am listening from some time and thought to share with you all. This one was specially recommended to me by my friend Sumit who hi...

Shiv Kumar Batalvi, A Legend....

There are so many writers in this world and there is just an ocean of literature. But despite the fact that all the writers are good and the entire literature of the world is nice, I still love Punjabi literature and its writers the most. You may call it whatever you want but this is what I really love and it has reasons. And out of all, the foremost reason is that no culture is as rich in its wealth as Punjabi culture and I have yet to read some thing which is as romantic or as painful or as joyful as Punjabi writer's writing are. There is no disrespect to anyone else or any other language but this is what my choice is! There are a lot of writers but few only have power to become immortals with their work. Only some chosen ones have a power to write fire with their words. Out of those few, Shiv Kumar Batalvi  stands apart. It wont ever happen that anyone would be able to touch even the heights where he is with his writing. Its a pity that Shiv had to leave this world so early b...
