What I lost and What I found - Atal Bihari Vaajpayee


This is one of my favorite poems in recent times. Atal Bihari Vajpayee really penned it down well. For someone to convey in the way of this poem is really not rare.. but the writing itself is.. The end itself leaves you incomplete and that goes in turn with the style of this poem which just flows from one line to the next... Here it is..

kya khoya kya paya jag mein
milte aur bichhadte mag mein
mujhe kisi se nahin shiqaayat
yadyapi chhala(cheated) gaya pag pag mein
ek drishti beeti par daalen
yaadon ki potali tatolen
apne hi mann se kuchh bolen
prathvi laakhon varsh puraani
jeevan ek anant kahaani
par tan ki apni seemayen
yadyapi sau sharadon ki vaani
itna kaafi hai antim dastak
par Khud darvaza kholen
apne hi mann se kuchh bolen
janam maran kaa avirat(continuous) phera
jeevan banjaaron kaa deraa
aaj yahan kal kahan kuch hai
kaun janata kidhar savera
andhiyara aakash aseemit
praanon ke pankhon ko taulen
apne hi mann se kuch bolen...


If interested, you may listen to it in its originality with the versatile voice of a great legend.. Jagjit Singh ..... Respect!
