MOTHER: A RAJASTHANI POEM BY Dr. ANJU: ENGLISH TRANSLATION BY RAJNI CHHABRA

 MOTHER

***********

Light of dry eyes

A tender shoot

Growing in 

Emotions-deprived heart

Crimson light of

Rising sun

Cool moonlight 

Of moon

Heart is in all smiles

Shining glow in 

Sweat of forehead

Innocent joy

Derived from 

Getting gift

In beds of fields

In trickle of water

And in lush-green fields

Mother seems to be

Smiling always.

Encaged Sparrow

  ENCAGED SPARROW ******************** Cage is her only refuge Till now, she had Convinced  herself Viewing birds  Enjoying free flight  Why, mind got confused today The bird in life-long captivation Pleaded for liberation Fowler showed mercy  And opened the door of the cage Stretching wings The sparrow endeavoured  To fly high in sky  But, could she touch Heights of the blues She shuddered  Viewing flying eagle Made up her mind  To dwell in the cage again. The style of living That she had followed  Since so many years  Could not release herself From its captivation. Rajni Chhabra Multi-lingual Poetess & Translator

BOUNDLESS

   BOUNDLESS  **************  Boundless  like horizon At times like aromatic winds At times like showers of rain  At times like mischievous spring Abundantly filled with silvery rays  Bathed in moonlight At times enwrapping darkness  In inner recesses of mind At times, writhing like snake Swaying in its own mood Ignoring worldly ways Pendulous, fluctuating    Slippery sand like moments  An ocean of dreams and fancies  Dwells within me.

LOVE THYSELF

LOVE THYSELF ****************  Manage sometime daily To spend with thyself Enjoy sun-filtered rays Reaching you through Oriel of  reveries Contemplate , evaluate Attainments of whole day Endeavour to accomplish Some unrealized dreams Or make efforts to Reach some new destination To complete any  Incomplete picture   On the canvas of life Borrow some colors  From dreams or from Those who cherish you Try to find some purpose/reason In seemingly purposeless life Association with oneself Often removes stress We are peerless creation  Created by the Supreme Creator  Self-esteem and Loving your individuality This sublime feeling Fetches in your life Purposefulness and radiance No one is closer to  You than yourself. @Rajni Chhabra Multi lingual Poetess
