बेकरार

Life at IIT. Life with learnings, fun, dreams, freedom. And precious moments.
Learnt some things there. Left much more undiscovered.
Some lines I scribbled during a train journey from Kharagpur to Kolkata during last days of my college. I think it was 10th May 2008. Finally publishing it.
First couplet is from a song by Gulzar Saahab.

रुके रुके से क़दम, रुक के बार बार चले,
करार ले के तेरे दर से बेकरार चले।

कि कल तक इसी पल के इंतज़ार में थे हम,
अब आज चाह है कि और इंतज़ार चले।

इसी उम्मीद से कि कल ज़रा बेहतर होगा,
हम आज भर को सुकूँ मांगने उधार चले।

मेरा हर एक ख्वाब ज़िन्दगी में उतरेगा
यही खुशफहमी चले और ये खुमार चले

मैं एक रात मांगता हूँ तुझसे ऐ मौला,
उन्ही ख़्वाबों का सिलसिला फ़िर एक बार चले।

A common among Specials

This poem was written by my younger brother, who has just entered into IIT Roorkee this year, in august end. It beautifully describes the experience of a new IITian.

Here it goes :

Destiny has given me an awakening shower

and the dreams of complexes are over

No superiority , No inferiority

arosen in me a feeling of equality

The qualities have turned into normalities

The casualities have turned into formalities

No more I am in the limelight

rather am shining as one of the stars in night

Deep inside me is a deep desire

trying to built again a strong empire

But my shadow is wandering like blinds

and I don't know when I will give up against the masterminds

I have forgotten to live alone among crouds

but am learning to be humble among prouds

Gradually time is passing by

and I have realised that I have become

A common among specials
