Long way to go

Thou the dreams may fade away,Tiny droplets may drain away,

shadows of little feet shall blossom someday,

Thou the rays of hope win over grays.

Splatter the rotten days  and grow new ways,

Demolish the spin of night clouds through some pace,

Spray the narrow paved hopes with brighten rainbow maze.

Thou the time will come,thy see the mirage,

Upside-downside reveal the shiny age,

Rise above the tidal waves win like a savior,

Fly over the oceans like the great albatross,

Cross the haunted mountains without sore,

Heavenly Gods shall guide the road,

Break the narrows explore the broad,

Take the risks and Emerge  like a fierce warrior.

Miles! Miles! Miles! Long way to go,

Every mile ain’t a destined place to roar,

Every day is a new  discovery, Thou inner peace and ivory,

Time will come and  go but the lessons learned shall remain brazed,

Glaze on face be the same,rise above over  like a dame,

Thou the dreams may fade away, tiny droplets may drain away!

GHAMAAN DI RAAT | Shiv Kumar Batalvi

Ghamaan di raat lahmi eh.
Ja mere geet lahme ne,
Na bhedi raat mukdi eh,
Na mere geet mukde ne.e sar kihne ku Doonge ne,
Kise ne hath na paayi,
Na barsaataan ‘ch charde ne,
Te na auraan ‘ch sukhde ne.Mere had hi avahle ne,
Jo ahg laaiyaan nahi sarde,
Ne sarde haukeyaan de naal,
Haavaan naal dhukde ne.Eh phat han ishk de yaaron
Ehna di ki dava hove,
Eh hath laaiyaan vi dukhde ne,
Malham laaiyaan vi dukhde ne.Je gori raat hae chann di,
Te kaali raat hae kis di?
Na lukde taareyaan vich chann,
Na taare chann ‘ch lukde ne
In Gurmukhi:
ਗ਼ਮਾਂ ਦੀ ਰਾਤ ਲੰਮੀ ਏ
ਜਾਂ ਮੇਰੇ ਗੀਤ ਲੰਮੇ ਨੇ ।
ਨਾ ਭੈੜੀ ਰਾਤ ਮੁੱਕਦੀ ਏ,
ਨਾ ਮੇਰੇ ਗੀਤ ਮੁੱਕਦੇ ਨੇ ।ਇਹ ਸਰ ਕਿੰਨੇ ਕੁ ਡੂੰਘੇ ਨੇ
ਕਿਸੇ ਨੇ ਹਾਥ ਨਾ ਪਾਈ,
ਨਾ ਬਰਸਾਤਾਂ ‘ਚ ਚੜ੍ਹਦੇ ਨੇ
ਤੇ ਨਾ ਔੜਾਂ ‘ਚ ਸੁੱਕਦੇ ਨੇ ।ਮੇਰੇ ਹੱਡ ਹੀ ਅਵੱਲੇ ਨੇ
ਜੋ ਅੱਗ ਲਾਇਆਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਸੜਦੇ
ਨਾ ਸੜਦੇ ਹਉਕਿਆਂ ਦੇ ਨਾਲ
ਹਾਵਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਧੁਖਦੇ ਨੇ ।ਇਹ ਫੱਟ ਹਨ ਇਸ਼ਕ ਦੇ ਯਾਰੋ
ਇਹਨਾਂ ਦੀ ਕੀ ਦਵਾ ਹੋਵੇ
ਇਹ ਹੱਥ ਲਾਇਆਂ ਵੀ ਦੁਖਦੇ ਨੇ
ਮਲ੍ਹਮ ਲਾਇਆਂ ਵੀ ਦੁਖਦੇ ਨੇ ।ਜੇ ਗੋਰੀ ਰਾਤ ਹੈ ਚੰਨ ਦੀ
ਤਾਂ ਕਾਲੀ ਰਾਤ ਹੈ ਕਿਸ ਦੀ ?
ਨਾ ਲੁਕਦੇ ਤਾਰਿਆਂ ਵਿਚ ਚੰਨ
ਨਾ ਤਾਰੇ ਚੰਨ ‘ਚ ਲੁਕਦੇ ਨੇ ।
English Translation:
Long is the night of sorrows
Or long mine mournful song
This damned night has no end
Nor stops the flow of my songs
How deep do these waters run?
Who has touched the surface?
No rains urge an overflow
No drought could run them dry
My bones have a rot to them
They burn not in flames
Nor do sighs melt them
Nor does wind set them alight
These be the ‘wounds of love’ friends
They find no cures never
If ye touch them they smart
If ye soothe with balms, they smart
This fair night is the moon’s
But who owns the dark night?
The Moon hides not amidst stars
Nor could stars hide within the Moon
