आओ हिसाब करें

ज़रा हिसाब देते जाइये, ज़िन्दगी का बही खाता है

ज़रा शर्म दिखाइए , ऊपर भी एक विधाता है

किसी ने खूब कहा उम्र मरहम देती है

चोट कुरेदते जाइये गर इसी में मज़ा आता है

फतह की आग में झुलस गए होंगे

हमारी आंखों के खारे पानी को मौका दीजिये

सुकून में न सही, मुगालतों की मैय्यत ही सही

यह बन्दा कभी न कभी तो काम आता है

चोट कुरेदते जाइये गर इसी में मज़ा आता है



मन नही किया आगे लिखने का

mugalaton ki maiyyat nahi,aankhon ka pani nahi;
gar banda dil se kahe, kisi ki jubani nahi;
har chot ki kahanni mein,sirf uska hi naam aata hai;
chot kuredate jaayiye gar isi mein maja aata hai;

ghat - dhokha, fareb

Even if with an etymological stretch one comes to accept the meanings of 'ghat' that you imply, the work still has an internal, unresolved conflict. The world that a work-event sets up can justify and reinforce the inflection and articulation of a term- that is how language evolves, but in this case something is amiss. Slight reworking is required.

'hisaab':amrita pritam's love for sahir ludhiyanvi remained unrequited. referring to an incident where in jest she offers her palm to sahir for an autograph while he is surrounded by 'pretty young things'and he stamps his inked thumb on it, she writes:
'umraan de is kaagaz utte
ishq tere ne angutha laya
kaun hisaab chukaega?'
( the punjabi is not too intense i hope...).....
one shoudnt have only one night stands with ones 'khayals' - promiscuity is not all too respectable....

It seems too many people are in love with you. Anyway, may i just say you write like a girl..so much self-righteous angst!

Kartikeya said...

terrific :-)

Self-righteous angst is feminine did someone say? Who are you? A chauvinist male or an ignorant woman?

Anonymous said...

(sigh)Verbal diarrhoea. After going through the archives, I realise.. why did I get mad at the “self-righteous” comment(Lets screw feminism for a second)..The critic was at loss of words I'm sure! Apologies and empathy.

roshnai said...

"...write like a woman...self-righteous angst"!
well, you percieve like a pimp....like an existential pimp...not that respected misra's writing is to be outrightly raved about but criticism that is not precise is even worse...

comment at 12.29am: ...no ignorant woman is so dumb though extremely chauvinistic men do fall way below manhood.

New post please..:-)

Wow! Everyone out to nail this “self-righteous creature” commentator...glad .. such sexists should not be spared!Or is she one of those Women's Reservation Bill supporters! yeeeeeek!!!!!!!

Will the blog owner please stand up!!

...and don't quite agree with the “existential pimp” phrase...the “self righteous” moron is anything but existentialist!!!Nietzschean..may be..if we assume he's a man.. but exclusive use of the word existentialim is grossly wrong!!

Kartikeya said...

Ladies ! and Men ! Shall we call it an amicable day, appreciate the co-operation....

Anonymous said...

Kartikeya...it's time you as a "moderator" did more than just accept comments... have done enough to elicit a response from you!!!

Anonymous said...

No, thou shall not call it a day until your opinion is heard..

roshnai said...

sorry kartikeya....totally agree that we should rest the matter yet i cant let the nietzschean bit go unresponded....."existential pimp" in the sense that he is not an existnetialist but to say that in the existential realm such a viewpoint can only come from a pimp... so much for the syntax...(even a pimp 'exists'....)

righteous and nietzsche? well lady ( or man) go check 'righteous' in a dictonary and then go read at least some of nietzsche....
'overreaching of self'implies everything opposite to what self-righteous' might come to stand for.

in reference to the 'verbal diarrohea', i empathize too.

Kartikeya said...

Here it is -

1. I don't remember ever asking anyone to do 'enough' to extract a response from me. It is your free will that you read / critize something, and I admire the freedom involved. I am no one to comment, please let me remain limited to my domain. Three exclaimation marks are a bit too much for my taste :-)

2. Angst of any sort is not a keep of gender.

3. I have an email id in public domain, if sweeping commentary is to be pursued we can all form a mailing group and talk. May I remind the ladies and gentlemen involved that I am the only one with a public identity here - Anyone game ?

Thanks for all the fish.....

sach likhte ho tum taki duniya ke baaar mein azaadi sasti na bik jaye,taki kamiyaabi khokla naa bana de jeena ka tarika;ek behtar kal chahate ho tum isliye sach likhte ho tum;sawaal poochne se he kam hote hain jimmedariyan,kyon ki kursi pe baithe walon ko sach ke ahmiyat yaad rahe;ab tum ias ho badal do duniya;
