Realties of Life

I am not a person who reads poems... and has got a literature taste. But Sh. Dushyant Kumar is one of the poets who really interest me. His way of writing is so impressive that after reading his collection of poems, I thought that what should be better than this. I am not criticizing others or saying that others are not so good. But for me Dushyant is best. He shows how real world react to situations, what are the real people like and what is real life like.

Here I am quoting some of his Shers: -

"Ho gayi hai peer parvat si pighalni chaiye,
is Himalaya se bhi Ganga Niklani chaiye"

"Mere Seene me Nahi to tere Seene me Sahi,
Ho Kahi Bhi lekin aag lagni Chaiye"
T - If not in my heart, then be it in yours,
There must be a FIRE anyhow

Doesn't matter who changes the world, but it should be changed.

"Jale jo ret me talve to hamne ye dekha,
bahut se log wahin chatpate ke baith gaye"
T- When feet got burned in Sand, then I saw,
Many of them sit there only

When reality comes, many persons just don't try. They get failed because they want to cross the difficulties.

"Dukandaar to mele me lut gaye yaaron,
Tamashbeen Dukaane laga ke baith gaye"
T - Shopkeepers got robbed in Fares,
The viewers have opened there shops now

The Genuine people are pushed back, and fake persons take their people.

"Ye soch kar ki Darakhton Ki Chhaon Hoti Hai,
Yahan Babool ke saaye me aake Baith Gaye"
T - We thought that trees give shades,
We sit beneath the tree of Babool (Acacia),

Took help from wrong persons just because they have got such big names.

"IS sadak par is kadar keechad bichhi hai,
har kisi ka paaon guthnon tak sana h"
T- There is so much Mud on Road,
Every leg is mudded till Knees

Politicians, Lawyers, Doctors, Business Persons, and lot many

"Rakt varshon se khaulta h,
aap kahte h chhanik uttejana h"
T - Blood is boiling from years,
And you say its a seconds boil..

"Ho Gai Har Gaath par poori Vyavastha,
Shauk se doobo jise bhi doobna h"
T - There is full preparation on the banks of rivers,
Get drowned by your own wish

"Doston ab Manch par suvidha nahi h,
Aajkal Naipathya me sambhwana h"
T - There is no scope on Front Stage,
Now a days there are lot of opportunities on Back Stage

Writes about Clandestine People..

"Khuda nahi, Na Sahi, Aadmi Ka Khwab Sahi,
Koi Haseen Nazara to Hai Nazar Ke liye"
T- There is no proof of existence of God, Might be a human dream,
But it is a very nice satisfaction for the eyes...

Shows that many a times in real life there are no real facts but only the decorations and misleading illusions created for mass.. This whole poem refers to that, I have taken only a couplet.


"EK Ubharte Jwar Ka Aaweg Madim ho chala hai,
Ek halka sa Dundhalka tha kahi, kam ho chala h,
Yeh Shila pighale na pighale, rasta nam ho chala h,
KYON KAROON AAKASH KI MANUHAAR
AB TO PATH YAHI HAI"
T - The speed of tide is slowing down,
There was fog somewhere, it has reduced,
This Stone may not melt, but now the path is easy,
WHY TO LOOK FOR SKY,
NOW THIS IS MY WAY!!

This poem is based on the compromises of life...


Really the life is full of lot many Truths, Compromises, Love and Struggle. Dushyant Ji has portrayed this very beautiful in his short collection of Poems.
