निकले तेरी तलाश में
लो खुद को भी खो दिया
तूने हमें और हमने खुद को
ये कैसा धोखा दिया
क्या शिकवा करें तुझसे
ऐ खुदगर्ज जिंदगी
तुझे जीने की चाह में
मौत को भी रुसवा किया
न तो तू ही हमारी बनी
न ही गले उसे लगने दिया।
In search of you
I lost myself too
You cheated me
And I cheated myself
How can I complain you?
In desire of living you
I dishonored death too
Neither you became mine
Nor I allowed her
To give me company!
Wah wah kya baat hai!! Aapki kavitayen padhkar toh aankhein bhar aati hain!! Beautiful words ☺

Again, the Hindi version more than the English one. How inadequate English is, compared to native tongues, to express deep thoughts!

So true sir! These are my hindi poems originally and I just try to translate them for my non hindi readers but जो मिठास व बात हिन्दी में है वह English में कहाँ। Thanks you so much!

Then I realised
I have hands of mine
I slapped you for cheating me
And my hands felt amazing too
Then I slapped you again
With my success on your face
I have ditched death way back
But was fearful of embracing life
With empowered hands
I grabbed my life
Pulled her towards me
And kissed her hard
Death shied away
Now there’s life
Always holding my hand
My hands her magic wand
The little me
That makes me feel
Stronger like a supawoman
You couldn’t win my heart
But you gave me my darling
That steals a many
Just with the flash of her smile
And shine in her eyes
Didn’t want to ruin your poem but it ended on a sad note and I couldn’t resist the urge to give it a brighter end 😍😘
