ऐ मौत तू ज़िन्दगी से ख़ूबसूरत है क्यों ?



NOTE: English translation is given below the Original...

तेरे ही आग़ोश में हर एक को सूकून मिलता है 
ऐ मौत तू ज़िन्दगी से ख़ूबसूरत है क्यों ?
न चाह कर भी हर कोई तेरे आग़ोश में सिमट जाएगा 
हर पल डर का मगर एहसास दिलाता है क्यों?

Tere hi aagosh mein har ek ko shukoon milta hai
Ae mauth tu zindagi se khoobsurat hai kyun?
Na chah kar bhi har koi tere aagosh mein shimat jayega
Har pal darr ka magar ahsaas dilata hai kyun?

Everyone finds solace in your embrace
O Death! Why you are so beautiful than Life?
No one likes you yet everyone will ultimately be embraced in your arms
But why do you scare everyone with your presence?

THE FLOW

I will not fight with the flow...
You have designed for me to flow...
I know there will twists & turns...
Ups and downs...
Blockages for a while...
Ultimately, I will meet to submerge in you...
Forever in boundless joy and energy!

... because they were poor villagers!

No one to burn candles...
No one to protest on the street, any more...
No one to hold any fancy placards
Reading ‘Rape is not Fun’

... because these three innocent children were poor villagers!

What?
What was their crime?
What was their fault?
Just aged 6, 9 & 11 –
To be brutally Raped
and to be mercilessly Murdered
Murdered by the Demons
Created by the Civilized Society.

... because the three innocent children were poor villagers?

Yes... I know, there will be no Protest,
No Speedy Action by Police,
No Fast Track Justice,
No one will be seen on the streets
Shouting aloud for justice for them,
No laws will be redrafted
NO ONE will demand Death Sentence for the culprits.

... because the three innocent children were poor villagers!

Intelligently enough,
The CM has purchased the Silence with 10 lakhs
The grieving Widow Mother has been orchestrated
By the very System
to divert the case on her Mother-in-law...
All in the name of being females!

Because... the Raped, Murdered children aged 6, 9 & 11 were Poor Villagers
Because... the Raped, Murdered children aged 6, 9 & 11 were Poor Villagers…

P.S: The poem is the anger within me about the Nation's people, the Evil System... who have closed their Conscience, Eyes and Humanity... because these three innocent children were poor.

पल वो पल


हर पल जो बीता कल
बन गए वो लम्हें
वो लम्हें हर पल कल के
सताए आज भी मुझे क्यों

यही सोच आज मैं
डूब गया मैं कल में

हर पल जो बीता कल
बन गए वो लम्हें
वो लम्हें हर पल कल के
सताए आज भी मुझे क्यों
