Penned By Narayan-Chandra Rauf - Alias B D Narayankar

शायर: नारायण -चंद्र रऊफ  - उर्फ़ बी डी नारायंकर 

थोड़ी देर और ठहर दिन ढलने वाला हैं
रात ज़हर बन अब बस डसने वाला हैं

लोग केह  केह  लगाएँगे मेरी नाकामी पर
वो तो खुश होंगे, जो उनका बोल बाला हैं

तुम्हे पाने की खुशबू क़ैद हो नहीं सकती
यू तो तेरे बे-आबरू होने का डर गाढ़ा हैं

थोड़ी देर हमनशीन चंन्द साँसे बाकी हैं
गम ना कर दूसरा जन्म होने वाला हैं

Penned By B D Narayankar

Thodi der aur teher din dhalne wala hain

raat zehar bann ab bus dasne wala hain

Log keh kehe lagayenge meri naakaami par

Woh toh kush honge jo unka bol bala hain

Tumhe paane ki khusboo qaid ho nahin sakti

yu toh tere be-abroo hone ka dar gaadaa hain

Thodi der ham nasheen channd bachi hain

gam na kar doosra janm hone wala hain

I Like The Eyes Of Yours - अच्छे लगते हैं आँखे तुम्हारी!!!

Deeksha Seth

शायर: बी डी नारायंकर 

अच्छे लगते हैं यह आँखे मुझे
जीने क ख्वाइश में झुकती हैं
यह नमकीन बहते पानी में
कूटते रहते हैं यादें
कितनी संजीदगी से जीते हैं
किस कदर मुस्तकिल्ल-मिज़ाज़ है यह
अच्छे लगते हैं आँखे तुम्हारी!

Penned By B D Narayankar

Achche laggte hain yeh ankhe mujhe
Jeene k khwaish mein jhukti hain
Yeh namkeen behte paani mein
Kut tey rehte hain yadein
Kitni sanjidagi se jeete hain
Kis kadar mustkill-mizaz hai yeh
Achche lagtey hain ankhe tumhari!

Translated By B D Narayankar

I like these eyes of yours
In the hope of living
They drop on my arrivals
Sometimes in the salty flowing water
These eyes pound memories

How wisely they live
With such stable
Unchanging temperaments
I like these eyes of yours!

खरीदार - The Buyers

शायर:बी डी नरयंकार 

उँगलियाँ छिल गयी नाम बुनते बुनते 
जब नज़्म  बनी उनकी तो खरीदार आ गये!

Penned By B D Narayankar

Ungliyan chil gayi naam bunnte bunnte

Jab nazm bani unki toh kharidaar aa gaye!

Translated By B D Narayankar

My fingers bled while writing her name

As soon as the poem was weaved, buyers came knocking ...

Palace Musings - Love At First Sight - 3

Penned By B D Narayankar

When I saw you for the first time,
my eyes told me the truth as never before
because I never saw true beauty before that night

She shows the moon how to burn bright
She stands out against the night
like a kohl waxed against the eyes of a Chennaiyin
She outshines the other women like a lotus amidst the dirt ...

Your eyes are like holy abode that my heart is unworthy to visit
If you are offended by the touch of my poetry,
my heart is standing as blushing pilgrim,
ready to take sin from your heart to make you better

What a woman, you are!
You are as tender as any flower
You are perfect as if sculpted from marble
Just look into my eyes,
I lack only a lover to make me perfect and complete like you

Come, embrace me
I will give you happy nights at the end of happy days,
My Love

Fascination For All That's Beautiful

 

Penned B D Narayankar

I have a fascination
for sweet dawns and dusks

for nestling on the wings of the wind

I have the fascination
for the eloquent eyes
for seven notes of melody

I have fascination
for the silences of the heart
for the rosy cheeks
for a smile blooming in her stifled desire

I have fascination
for sailing in the boat of her eyes
for drowning myself in her love
for wearing the muffler of clouds around my neck

Wish this life could be scraped
in a child's play!

Show Me The Way, Honey!

Penned By B D Narayankar

I am at the crossroads
gazing at the roads

One is always complaining
it spreads its leg,
snores all day;
another wanders into a barren land;
one is tired
yet keeps on walking
on an endless journey

The one that goes through
the branches of solitude
is stale, silent
Yet another winds into
scalding wilderness

I am at the crossroads,
My Love,
gazing at numerous roads

One morning,
or my be one evening
you will come,
hold my hand
and point to me;
this is where we have to go

Tell me, Honey!
