This is how I felt after listening to it.
जहाँ भी मैं जाती हूँ, 
चुपचाप करते हैं आवाज़!
पाक़ बेफिक्रे से,
तेरे पश्मीना अल्फ़ाज़!!

पानी की सिलवटो में,
बहती हूँ कुछ इस तरह!
हर बूँद में हो जैसे,
एक नया आगाज़!
और साथ - साथ बहते हैं,
तेरे पश्मीना अल्फ़ाज़!!

गुज़र जाते हैं,
कई दिन, कई महीने!
चाहे न कोई हो मेरे आस पास,
भीड़ में भी रखते हैं मुझे महफूज,
तेरे पश्मीना अल्फ़ाज़!!

अकेली नहीं इस शोर में, न हूँ मैं उदास!
हर पल साथ देते हैं तेरे पश्मीना अल्फ़ाज़!!

    तेरे पश्मीना अल्फ़ाज़ !!

    सुन्दर शब्द. दो तीन बरस पहले राहुल शर्मा क्लेमसन आये हुए थे तो पास से सुना था उनका संतूर वादन. बहुत अच्छा लगा था.

    I really had to google so many words.. shame on me. But now I know the meaning of every line and it's is like a pleasant breeze, this song. Reminded me of pashmena stole, so soft and so warm.

Rewind - September 2023

 I wrote the following in September. Sometimes, I feel I will forget the art of writing couplets because I am not writing at all this year. I strongly believe you have to practice to hone your craft. And I am not doing that. Perhaps I schedule a time to write a poem. Or I need better time management skills. Date Published 09/05/2023 मुझे उसके जाने का इतना अफ़सोस नहीं हुआ  जितना इस बात का कि इतने सालों तक उसे रहने ही क्यों दिया  Love, Saru

I Am Not Alone

Last year blessed me, He walked silently into my life. It was Love, That took me in its stride. One evening we walked holding hands, Then, I told him what I felt in heart. He said we were one soul, Who were living in parts. To bring the parts together, We fought with the world and tied the knot. Being one soul, Gave life a whole new spot. Chirping birds, floating clouds, Nature conspired for us. Always swimming against the tide, Life was in an adrenaline rush. This year cursed me, He walked silently out of my life. It was Death, That took him in its stride.       Yesterday his soul was saying, Fearing memories will fade, he can’t move on. He will stay and admire me, Standing always by my side from dusk to dawn.
