(Please read all the following writings as are in Hindi.)

 

O DEEPAK TUM JALTE RAHNA!

Annginat pralobhan ke ghere main jab maanav ghabra jaaye.
Prayatn kare bharsak lekin tab bhee chhuttkara na paaye…..
Tab us niraashrit maanav ko tu uski rah jataa dena.
Uske man ke andhiaare main phir se jagmag jyote jagaa dena.

ओ दीपक तुम जलते रहना !

अनगिनत प्रलोभन के घेरे में जब मानव भाबरा जाए,
प्रयत्न करे भरसक लेकिन तब भी छुटकारा ना पाए,
तब उस निराश्रित मानव को तू उसकी राह जता देना,
उसके मन के अंधियारे में फिर से जगमग ज्योत जगा देना ॥

 

UNTITLED POEM

Main kharaa vibharaant sa kuch kar raha hoon prarthnaayen.
Mat karo he dev kshat-vikshat meri sab bhavnaayen.

शीर्षक रहित

मैं खड़ा विभ्रांत सा कुछ कर रहा हूँ प्रार्थनाएँ,
मत करो हे देव क्षत-विक्षत मेरी सब भावनाएँ।

 

DESH KO NAVEEN TYAAG CHAAHIYE!

Unnati devi hai bhookhi tyaag ki.
Bali ka hai bhaar tumpe tyaagiyon,….
Dil main ab sulagani aag chaahiye,
Desh ko naveen tyaag chaahiye.

देश को नवीन त्याग चाहिए !

उन्नति देवी है भूखी त्याग की,
बाली का है भर तुमपे त्यागियों,
दिल में अब सुलगनी आग चाहिए,
देश को नवीन त्याग चाहिये।

 

UNTITLED POEM
Nisshtthurr mujhe todkar toone
Mera hridya dukhaaya kayon.
Churmur kar mam pankhdiyon ko
Avni par bikhraaya kayon.

Author has also written poetry on Natural Beauty and for kids. A brief of some are below:-

 

MOR!
Ghanghor ghata jab chhaati hai
Moron ka man harshaati hai
Tab apni khushi dikhaane ko
Man ka ullaas bataane ko….

PYASAA KOVAA!
Aik bar kale kavve ko
Badi jor ki pyas lagi
Paani peene ki ichchhaa se
Firta tha vah gali gali.

ARAB AUR USKA OONT!
Sheetkal ki aik rat ko
Badi bhayanak thand padi
Thandi vaayu ke jhonkon se
Deekh rahi thi maut khadi.

ADHYAPAK KA SAMMAAN KARO!
Hum aaj punah aikatrit hain
Adhyapak divas manaane ko
Hain bahut rinni hum guruyon ke
Yah aadambar dikhlane ko

Extract from ‘Neeras Ki Shri Geeta’:-
DHRATRAASHTRA NE KAHA:

Dharmkshetra us kurukshetra main maha samar ki chaah liye
Aikatrit mam sut ‘O’ Pandav ne Sanjay kaya karm kiye

SANJAY NE KAHA:

Vayuh rachna se yukt dekh Pandav ki sena ko us kshann
Guru Dron ke nikat pahunch kar yun bole narup Duryodhan
Pandav ka yah Drupad putra apne hi chatur kshishya dwara
Vayuhakar khara Aacharya! dekho dal vishal sara…….
