I wanted to pause that moment when we met for the first time ,
Because I knew it that it was our first and last meeting ever !!

-

I pack our memories in a suitcase,
So that when we are not together in future
I can open that suitcase and feel you through your memories.

Dear Lalbaughcha Raja,

There are innumerable idols coming with you every year, but still you remain unique enough that it's a pride to catch a glimpse of you when you arrive or depart.

-

यह राज भी बड़े अजीब हैं...
हलक से उतरते नही,
और दिल से सम्भलते नही....

-

Will you stop if
I promise to be with you forever
in every moment of your life .

-

I never felt hard to
whisper an adieu
till I met her.

-

अपनी अदाकारी से
कभी हमको हसाये
कभी रुला दिया
जब पहुँचे शिखर पर
मौत ने गले लगा लिया

THE LAST GOODBYE

I greeted you as never before.
Charmed by your visit;
lost in the conversation,
I comprehended your lonliness for a huge stretch.
Your stories, your childish whispers
and your sweet smile as always made my day.
Exuberantly listening to your talks,
I perceived, how you valued your bonds.
Your eyes,
reflecting the beauty of your love and character.
Everything I noticed,
but couldn't realize your silence.
Ah! I still remember those bunch of chocolates,
you proffered to me,
Unfortunately, the last present by your hands.
Your voice, still echoes in my ears,
encircling my existence.
I had never imagined you leaving us like this.
Your death gave me a shock out of thunder.
A single tear didn't shed from
your eyes to make us realize, it was your farewell.
At least a last goodbye!

हम कल भी तुमसे दूर थे हम आज भी तुमसे दूर है
फर्क बस इतना सा है
कल हम तुम्हारे दिल से दूर थे
आज हम तुम्हारी नज़रो से दूर है
पर तुम तो कल भी हमारे दिल में थे आज भी हमारे दिल में हो
