Feb Callings: Bhikharan Raat - The Expectant Night!


शायर: बी डी नारायंकर 

जोगन सी
ना सोई ना जागी
चलती फिरती
गली गली
तलाशती हैं
नन्हा सवेरा
भरने गोद  ...

देखो तो!
चाँद कटोरा लिए  
भटक रही हैं भिखरण रात!

Penned By B D Narayankar

Jogan si
Na soyi na jaagi
Chalti Firti
Gali gali
Talashti hain
Nanha savera
Bharne, Godh ...


Dekho toh!
Chand katora liye
Bhatakk rahi hain bhikharan raat!


Translated By B D Narayankar

Like an ascetic
Neither asleep
Nor awake
She walks about
Street after street
In search of a new-born dawn
To fill her lap ...

Look!
The night is wandering with the begging bowl of the moon


Note: This piece is a prelude to my new poem Dhool - The Life-giving Dust, which I had promised. It's done, but I feel this deserves to be published first. I have been inspired by someone special who I believe has entered motherhood.

This one came right from my heart.
