 DOORIYAN !!!

,           

       Kyon  hain  yeh  dooriyan in nazdikiyon  mein   
       Kyon hain  yeh  fasle in karibiyon mein ??         
                      
      Satlaz  ka  pani wohi hai yahan bhi wahan bhi
      Raavi behta  hai yahan  bhi  wahan  bhi 
      Kashmir  ki sarjamin  yahan bhi hai wahan  bhi 
     
      Phir  kyon  hai  yeh dooriyan in nazdikiyon mein       
      Kyon hai yeh  fasle in karibiyon mein ??      
      
        
              
,     Id mein  sevaiyon khi  mithas
      Milne ki  garamjoshi 
       Khushiyon  ki  bahar  
      Yahan bhi wahi hai  , wahan bhi wahi hai !!

     Phir  kyon hain yeh  dooriyan in  nazdikiyon  mein 
     Kyon hain yeh  fasle  in karibiyon mein ??

     Ghalib aur  Zauk ke  kadradan yahan bhi  hain wahan bhi 
     Mehndi  Hasan  ki gazlen 
     Log  gaate  hai  yahan  bhi wahan bhi 
     Noorjahan  ka  noor chamakta hai
     Yahan bhi  wahan  bhi !

     Phir  kyon  hain yeh  dooriyan in nazdikiyon mein
     Kyon hain yeh  fasle in karibiyon  mein ??
       
      Sarhad pe jab hoti hai  goliyon ki bauchar
      Sipahi  marte  hain
      Maaen  roti hain 
      Bewaen sisakti  hain
      Yahan bhi , wahan  bhi.!

      Phir  kyon  hain yeh dooriyan in nazdikiyon mein
      Kyon hai yeh fasle  in karibiyon  mein ???
      

     Jab  ho  rahe  tthe hisse do , ek  zamin ke 
     Kitne huye beghar 
     Kitne  huye  yateem 
     Kitna khoon baha yoon hi !.

     Par , is bewajah  bahe  khoon ka, rang to lal tha
     Yahan bhi   aur  wahan bhi !.

     Phir kyon hain yeh  dooriyan in nazdikiyon mein 
     Kyon hain yeh fasle  in  karibiyon  mein ??????


 ENGLISH  TRANSLATION  FOR  MY  NON- HINDI     SPEAKING   FRIENDS     
                             .

      
      Why  this  distance  between  the  near  ones 
      Why  this indifference  between  the  same  ones ???

       
       
   The  water in Satlaz is the same  here and  the  same  there 
    Raavi  flows  here too and  there too
    Land  of  Kashmir  is here too and there too
        
    Then  why  this  distance between  the near  ones
    Why  this  indifference  between  the  same  ones ???

     
                             
      During  Id , the  sweetness of  Sevaiyan  
      Warmth  of  the  embrace
      The cheerful ambience
      Is  the  same  here  too and  the  same  there too

     Then  why  this distance  between the  near  ones 
     Why  this  indifference  between  the  same  ones ???

      Ghalib  and  Zauk   are  relished here too and  there  too
      The  ghazals of  Mehndi  Hassan  
       Are sung  here  too and  there  too
       Noor  jahan shines here  too and  there  too .

      Then  why  this distance  between the near  ones 
       Why  this  indifference  between the  same  ones ???
        
       When   on the border the  guns  fire 
       Soldiers  die
       Mothers  cry
       Widows   weep 
        Here  too and  there  too !

        
       Then  why  this distance between the  near  ones 
       Why  this indifference  between the same  ones ???


           
      
     When  the one land  was  paritioned 
     How  many  were rendered  homeless
     How  many  were  orphaned 
     How  much  blood was shed senselessly !

     But colour  of  the senselessly shed  blood was red
     Here   too and  there  too !

     Then  why  this distance  between the  near ones 
      Why this  indifference  between  the  same  ones ????

Thanks a lot shakosh for your very appropriate comment ! It has added a new dimension to my poem !

Truly even those of us who have settled outside and living there for generations are still not being accepted fully by their adopted country must have the same feelings !

The first stanza and repetition makes this poem very interesting..and its very saddening when indifference cant be solved...we too cry silently when we are not accepted as one here... and again thanx for the translation..

Yeah Harsh Bhau , I can understand the underlying pain and anguish in milions of millions of people like you and me ! It was all a sheer waste and there was no sense behind all the blood shed which has unnecessarily breeded the difference between the two communities !

Thanks a lot Bhau , ur sentiments are real appreciation for my blog !!
