CONFUSION : HINDI POEM BY PROMILA BHARDWAJ : ENGLISH VERSION BY RAJNI CHHABRA
CONFUSION
*************
Reaching on
Summit of
Lush green mountain
Glanced downwards
Within a moment
In both eyes
Got confined
Entire town,
Plains, river, bridge
And serpentine pathways
Passing which
We reached so high,
Capturing this splendid view
In eyes,
Presented it to heart
Heart accepted it
Viewed, examined, praised,
Thrilled
Passed it to intellect
As gift
Intellect examined it,
And exercised mind,
Thought of locating
Own house in that clicked view,
Failed, but
This attempt did not prove futile
Realization dawned
About self-identity
That seemed to be very special
Came to realize
This existence is as much unknown
As his own house
In this entire landscape.
Ego subdued
Internal darkness
Came to an end
Confusion ended
Got polite
Reaching on
Summit of
Lush green mountain.
