  Sharing precious comment received from eminent Poet and critic Dr. Nand Bhardwaj ऱजनी जी, आपका राजस् ‍ थानी कविताओं का अनुवाद संकलन 'ACROSS THE BORDER' मुझे प्राप् ‍ त हो गया है, आपने वाकई लाजवाब काम किया है, अभी कुछ ही अनुवाद पढ़ पाया हूं, समय निकाल कर जल् ‍ दी ही पढूुंगा। आप राजस् ‍ थानी भाषा की प्रकृति को बेहतर समझती हैं, और दोनों भाषाओं पर आपका समान अधिकार है, इसलिए उम् ‍ मीद करता हूं कि आपके अनुवाद इन कविताओं की अन् ‍ त: प्रकृति को समझते हुुुए निश् ‍ चय ही बेहतर अनुवाद होंगेे। आपको बधाई और शुभकामनाएं। Nand Bhardwaj  

  14. A VISIT TO SHIMLA I went to Shimla With my Mom and Dad I am their loving lad. We went by car As it was very far. The road was twisty And zig zag In the evening It was misty. I felt very shivery Mom took off her jacket And clad me with it I felt a little cozy Wearing gloves and cap.   Got up early in the morning To enjoy Sun-rise From the Ridge Beauty of hills For me was a surprise.   I had a ride on yak It thrilled me a lot Dad did photo session Photography is his passion.   When, I grow up And learn to drive I will take Mom and Dad To Shimla  And give them joy ride.
