Meethi Nazrein by Kavitha 'Nazm' Srinivasan

 




Mil gayee nazrein meree teree nazaron se jab

Yoon laga meri nazrein kuchh meethee ho gayiin


Palkon ko bhi ab tujhse aashnaai hai

Ke tere aks paakar ab meethee ho gayin


Meri rooh ki ab tujhse vaabastagee hai

Yoon laga ab saansein meri meethee ho gayin


Teri yaadon ki gham se jab hai shanaasaee,

To bahte ashk bhi meree meethee ho gayeen


Bun liya hai khwaab maine tanhaai mein ab

Ke ab sooni raatein bhee meethee ho gayin🌹Nazm🌹


Translation:


When my eyes met your eyes,

I felt that my sight became sweet..


Even the lashes are now fond of you,

That your reflection has made them sweet...


My soul is now in love with you,

And now it seems my breath has become sweet..


When I got acquainted with the pain of your memories,

Even my flowing tears have become sweet....


I have now woven dreams in my solitude,

That even the lonely nights have become sweet🌹Nazm🌹

A TRIBUTE TO A LEGEND, GIRISH KARNAD BY KAY S

GIRISH KARNAD - A JONATHAN LIVINGSTON SEAGULL Inspired from an obituary & narration by Professor Ramesh Dutt “People do not decide to become extraordinary.  They decide to accomplish extraordinary things!” - Sir Edmund Hillary Life is full of mysteries and surprises and I believe that each one of us is born in a unique manner to unravel our own mysteries to carve a niche for ourselves in this world.  Some of us decide to do great things, think out of the box, be different, and create revolutions to achieve greatness and some of us live abysmally cribbing, complaining, and thinking negatively throughout our lives passing away one fine day.  Girish Karnad was the former, a visionary, a thinker, a rebel who decided to achieve greatness in a way that he found befitting.  He found his niche and he bulldozed his way through life doing everything he possibly could in a manner befitting his personality, which undoubtedly was greatness personified....

Of Chances & Choices by Kay S

"In chasing Money & Fame, we lose Time.... In making up for Time, we lose important Relationships, In losing Relationships, we lose strength, peace of Mind & Trust, In losing Strength, Trust, and Peace of Mind, we lose our Health In losing our Health, we lose everything we have & end up Lonely!" - Kay S  As I passed through life in installments, sometimes happily, sometimes melancholically, at times brave and at times frail and afraid, I learnt some very important lessons on the important pivots that define Life, the essence of it, and the lack of the same. During my sojourn, I was exposed to a lot of learning and readings by established poets, writers, philosophers and scholars.  One of things I happened to read that impacted me a few years ago was a couplet in Urdu that read, " Masroof rehne ki aadat kaheen tumhe tanha na kardein, Rishte ehmiyat ke mautaaj hote hain fursat ke nahin!"  which translates to, "Let not the habit of staying busy end up ...

Introspection & Rumination - A Theatre Review by Kay S

  A Theatre Review – Jiss Ne Lahore Nai Dekhiya by Kay S “Let the borders be outside, not inside.” Abhijit Naskar, Author The remnants of humanity and human relationships live on to raise its ugly hood, resonating, and at times transporting us through books, plays, or a movie into a zone of eternal bliss where there is camaraderie, brotherhood and unity that still exists. We as human beings are a flawed race to be frank, and the sooner we accept this fact, the better off we will be and endeavor to at least attain a semblance of being a better version of ourselves.  This thought seemed to echo in my mind, heart, and soul at the highest decibel it ever could as I watched the play, “Jiss Ne Lahore Nai Dekhiya” written by playwright Asghar Wajahat, directed by Zafer Mohiuddin of Kathputliyaan Theatre Group.  I have been so touched deep in my soul by the storyline, the underlying message.  The impeccable performances of the actors who were par excellence carry...
