Poetic Jewels

These are a few poetic excerpts. I remember them from a lovely book called Parikrima. It was a collection of poems and was the part of our curriculum in school.

Dono Ore Prem Palta Hai,
Priye, Patang to Jalta Hi Hai
Dipak Bhi Jalta Hai.

-Maithli Sharan Gupt

Viyogi Hoga Pehla Kavi,
Aah Se Upja Hoga Gaan,
Nikal Ker Nayanon Se ChupChap,
Bahi Hogi Kavita Anjaan.

- Sumitra Nandan Pant


Saanp !
Tum Sabhya Hue To Nahin,
Nagar Mein Basna,
Bhi Tumhey Na Aaya!
Ek Baat Poonchhoon -
Uttar Dogay?
Tab Kaise Seekha Dasna,
Vish Kahan Paya?

-Agyaye

These ones are not from Parikrama.

Chashm-e- Purnam, Bahi, Bahi, Na Bahi
Zindagi Hai, Rahi Rahi, Na Rahi,
Tumto Keh Do Jo Tumko Kehna Tha,
Mera Kya Hai, Kahi, Kahi, Na Kahi !

-Vinod Tiwari

Kewal Badal Nahin Aankh Ko,
Thodi si Dopahar Bhi Lena
Jeetey Jeete Marte Hain Sab,
Tum Marte Marte Jee Lena

Jab Thakan Sindhu Ho Jai,
Aur Chetna Lagey Doobne
Baith Hridaya Ke Madiralai Mein,
Tab -Tab Dard Sura Pee Lena.

-RamSanehi Lal Sharma 'Yayawar'

And the last one.

Ishq Ne Tere Pyar Mein,
Nikkamma Bana Diya
Mujhko Daddy,
Aur Tumko, Amma Bana Diya ;-)

-Pradeep Chaubey
