Bikharna

बिखरना

वक़्त की समझ में है
कहाँ ये बिखरना?
भाग्य की इस राह में
है सत्य बिखरना

ज्वलित ह्रदय की
दुखद व्यथा
असामयिक कसौटियों में
है सम्पूर्ण कथा

काल के सानिध्य में
भावों का ये बिलखना
दुत्कारती नजरों का
दंभ में अखरना
ज़िन्दगी के उसी क्षण
साक्षात है बिखरना

जुड़ सकें धागे कभी?
इतने अभी पक्के नहीं
असमानता की इस जुंग में
झूट अब सच्चे नहीं

अमानवीय मूल्यों का ये
अकारण देहालना
आतिशी अंगारों के सामान
है सर्वसत्य बिखरना!

Delhi Gate

Delhi 100 Delhi/ Dilli Gate of Najafgarh, New Delhi Photo:   Delhi   Gate, Najafgarh (from my mobile phone) It is a matter of great pride for every citizen of India that Delhi , is celebrating 100 proud years for being the Capital of India.  It was in year 1911 during the rule of Imperial power the capital was shift from Calcutta (present Kolkata) to Delhi . 100 years is indeed a very long time period. Delhi is a historical city with plethora of monuments narrating the enigmatic past of it. I have been fortunate to see most of the popular historical monuments and buildings of Delhi including India Gate, Red Fort, Humayun Tomb, Qutub Minar , Old Fort, Lotus Temple , Parliament of India and so. But, the monument which attracts my fascination is the one which I regularly visit. It is something which although being a part of Delhi ’s history is not so popular. It is the Delhi/ Dilli Gate of Najafgarh (Coordinates: 28°36′45″N 76°59′05″E, So

Band Baja aur Baraat!

बैंड बाज़ा और बारात  : Epitome of Happiness! Image Courtesy : clip-art-free-clipart.blogspot.com Yesterday was a happening day. Guess what was so special?  कल मेरे यार के ' भाई ' की शादी थी .  It was a typical  Kumaoni  (Uttarakhand, India) wedding. I enjoyed a lot. I danced in all best, impossible, self-invented, on-the-spot style way, one can think of and yes for 2 hours non-stop. Yes! It was my non-stop dance display from the road with  dhol-nagada  1000watt PMPO heart thumping beats to the dancing floor of DJs. Beautiful girls were dancing, so that was another feel good factor. Along with my friends, in sync, in coordination I danced. Many times joined by little hesitating but equally curious chance performers who were the other  Baratis . The slow rhythmic dances, swinging on both left and right direction, use of hands in विचित्र मुद्रा   some exploration kind!, slightly bending towards the ground, with beats of  Pahadi  songs full of nasal twang, ul

Harmonium - Disharmony!

Harmonium - Disharmony! Naah! am not criticizing western music or its instruments with this peti (Harmonium) . Am not a crusader. This episode revolves around my training days to learn guitar(i didn't perfect it yet). With childlike curiosity i came to know some International Guitar Coaching center has been opened in my neighbourhood. As the prefix had international, mind got attracted that I will learn some international technique. One fine day I went to the International Center. There was a dark glass door, to give it some mysterious look. I entered and saw a thin mid aged man (Mr. X) sitting on a revolving chair, i guess he was revolving for several hours, as i just saw him. With one x-ray i thought he was the attendant given his outlook and acts (revolving) but was blown away with the american accent 'Hello!'. I got nervous as i didn't expect from this poor looking, malnourished man to say with that elan.  I murmured - " Hello! Sir. I have com
