PERMANENT ADDRESS ..


  • My Soul spoke to me: ......of similarities and differences
                                            of sameness and polarities
                                            of ' you'ness and 'me'ness.......



      My Soul spoke to me:........of outer blind faith and inner trust,
                                            
                                           


     


  • Fortunately, all of us possess the same Permanent Address :

    House of the Lord-God,
    Luminous Lane,
    Street O' Self,
    State -Of Bliss,
    Nirvana Country,

SUNEHRI YAADON KI GATHHDI....


Sunehri yaadon ki gathhdi
Sar par tikaaye hu a
Chali ja rahi----ek budiya

Kuch raaste the kuchhe- pucke
Kuch raste the purre pucke
Kuch raaste   seedhe se
Kuch raaste mudd te hu a
Kuch raaste chaddte se
Kuch raaste the uttatr hu a
In raaston ko sachaayi se
Naapti hu ee
Sunehri yaadon ki gathhdi
Sar par tikaaye hu a
Chali ja rahi-----ek budiya

Kabhi mausam ne jhunjhunati
Dhoop dikhlaayi
Toh  kabhi koylaayi  badalon ne
Sakoon bhari barish barsaayi
Kabhi hawaaon ne saath diya
Toh kabhi hawaaon ne mukkh mode liya
Lekin sab haalaaton ka
Saamna karti hu a
Sunehri yaadon ki gathhdi
Sar par tikkaaye hu a
Chali ja rahi----ek budiya

''Kaise kaise rishton ke bandhanon
Mein bhandhi hoon''---Sochti
Ja rahi thi----ek budiya
Kaun se the apne
Kaun the paraaye;
Mann hi mann in rishton ki
Silwatein sawaarti hu ee
Uljhane suljhati hu ee
Sunehri yaadon ki potli
Sar vpar sajaye hu a
Chali ja rahi----ek budiya

Ek vishram grah
Ek nadi ke kinaare
Kuch faasle par
Dikhlaayi diya
Uttaar potli  sar se
Baithh gayi---- woh  budiya
Kholi gathhdi  yaadon ki
Ek ek kar ke
Apne haath ki hattheli
Par parakhte  hu a
Bahaadi sabhi yaadein.....
Apne aap ko
Apne aap se 
Mukt  karti  hu a
Sunehri yaadon ke bhoj se
Halki ho kar 
Chalti gayi----ek budiya.......

BANAAMI.


BENAAMI.

Is benaami ka koi gum nahin;
gum toh hai sirf ek baat ka
ki jinke liye benaam huye,
aaj unka bhi koi naam nahin.....


Kuch der ke kirahedaar
ban kar aaye shaan aur shaukat hain;
aaj idhar toh kal gayab
is duniyan ki bheed mein....

Dil ki dehleej par
kudhaayi  roshni ki ek kiran
kuch shnn dikh laayi di;
lekin usse par karne  se 
pehle hi woh dhunla gayi.....

Is benaami ka koi gum nahin,
jinke liye benaam hua aaj unka bhi koi naam nahin.....

DIL SE DIL TAK KA SAFAR...

( in dedication to my Master)





DIL SE DIL TAK KA SAFAR 

PALAKH JHAPAKTE HI TEH HO GAYA,

EK  PYAAR KE PAL MEIN... 


IS CHOTI SI, AUR SARAL SI

BAAT MANN MEIN  BAITHHA NA PAYA; 

SAINKADON TEREEKE AUR TAKNIKEIN 

AAZMATE HUA ZAMANA GUZZAR GAYA,


BAS MAIN APNE AAP KO 

AAINA BANA NA PAYA.....

''FROM self TO SELF.......''

FROM    self    TO    SELF.......

I  felt  your  fingertips on my cheek;
Was not that your acknowledgement  of me ?

I  felt your tingling upon my lip;
Was not that your affirmation for me ?

I felt your thoughts douched  my mind;
Was not that your sane self  in me ?

I  felt your Presence in my heart;
Was not that prayer enough for me ?

I felt your  glow envelop my soul;
Was  not that your encircling of me into yourself ?

I  felt my light within your Light
Was not that  a bit of  'me'  in  'all' of you.......?

BLUE ROSE


BLUE    ROSE

There it grows
-in the Garden
through the Hand of Providence;
a flower so unique,
assembled in petals of soft silk;
-upright upon a dainty stem
-upright above a thorny bush
-upright and dolefully gazing 
with its upturned face
into Me,
and My azure Expansiveness

Blue Rose
let the Breezes of Tomorrow
tear you,
and blow you Upwards
into Me..................
