OUR KEMSI
IN LOVING MEMORY OF OUR KYAMUSBHAI

Like a kite swooping far  away from us, you too, just  flew away ;

Loving, caring, ever helpful, hypersensitive; made you were, of a different clay.

Few lucky ones understood you; many who didn't, mocked or kept you at bay.

For the poor and needy, you were always for them; of hope, a bright ray.

With a child you became even a smaller child, and brightened their day

Mum's favourite student you were; who, for her had  love n respect deep, I must say.

In me, saw you a sister, whom you loved n adored,  until your dying day.

KEMSI, there are just a few noble souls on this Earth; the rest like you, with Ahura stay.

On Utarayan day, you left this world,  for your Heavenly abode; there, happy may  you stay.

CHILDREN'S DAY
CHILDREN'S DAY

Not just diminishing, almost perishing is our community

Innumerable elders like us, find we, tottering around, with decreasing immunity;

Where today children rare have become, thanks to causes complex n varied;

But our heads, like an ostrich, we have conveniently deeply buried

Indifference and silence this, is killing a society, once very vibrant

It's not that we have resources none; we have to try, n them hunt

Only if I were a multimillionaire, surely a corpus huge I would create;

That corpus, which would greatly help middle class parents to procreate

May a multimillionaire come forward one of these days, to an amount pay;

So that, have we can, at least a babies few by November next, on Children's day.

With a prayer to Ahura, to send a compassionate heart who loves Parsis.

So that, soon there will be an increase in the number of new born Parsis.

BRING IN
BRING IN THE MUCH NEEDED COMPASSION PLEASE...

Why have we become so callous, so very indifferent??? Why have we stopped feeling another's pain, his woes???

If we can't share, let us at least put our hand on his shoulder and give him a smile. Say a tiny prayer. Can't we???

Have all our feelings died???
BRING OUT THE HUMAN BEING YOU WERE MADE TO BE.

આંચળ

જ્યરે જ્યરે યાદ આવે મને, ખોળો પ્રેમાળ તારો;

ચૂમી લૌઉ છું હું, આદર અને  પ્રેમપૂર્વક, સાડલો તારો

જ્યરે પણ  મન થાય છે વિવ્હળ અને  બેચેન મારું;

પ્રેમપૂર્વક ગળે  લગાડી લૌઉ છું હું, આંચળ તારું

પહેલાં તો આવતી  હતી  ઍમાથી  મહેક, ખુશ્બુ તારી;

જે તારી જેમ ઓઝળ થઈ ગઈ; બસ હવે છે તન્હાઈ મારી.

તારું આંચળ હવે રહ્યું નહિ તો ચૂમીને સાડલો તારો, જાણે  સ્પર્શ કરું છું હું  તને  

જ્યરે ઉદાસી ઘેરી લે છે મને, તો આવી રીતે યાદ કરી લૌઉ છું હૂં તને.

થોડા સમય માટે, થોડી ક્ષણો માટે એહસાસ ભોગવી લૌઉ છું હું તારો.

ખુદને, આં વ્યાકુળ દિલને, ભ્રમ માં બાંધી લૌઉ છું હું; તને અને  મને.

यह ख्वाहिशें

एक बिरहन पुकारे......

क्या करू, जाती नहीं दिल से, यह ख्वाहिशें मेरी;

कुछ भी करू, जाती नहीं दूर दिल से, यह यादे तेरी

दिमाग कहता है, हटा दें इन्हे तु, दिल से कर दे दूर;

दिल कहता है, संजो के रख तु इन्हे; कर रहा है मुझे मजबूर

क्या करू, इस कश्मकश में उलझा है दिल, जले मोरा जिया ।

क्या करू समझ न आए, मुझसे रूठ गए हैं मेरे पीया ।

काश मिले उनकी एक झलक, यह ख्वाइश लिए बैठे हैं

आे बिछड़े प्रीतम, तोरी आश लगाए कबसे बैठे हैं

बारिश तन भिजाए; पर दिल में आग लगाए ख्वाइश सजन की

कोयलिया की मीठी कुक भी,  ख्वाइश जगाए मधुर मिलन की।

सावन आया तुम न आए, पिया, कब तक राह निहरू तोरी ।

क्या पूरी होगी कभी, यह दिलो जान की ख्वाइश मोरी ?

Frustration
FRUSTRATION

Decided I have, now onwards, at peace n to happy remain

Even at the cost of remaining ignorant and sometimes, a wee bit insane.

Politics n news dishearten one's heart n mind, away from these I will remain

Negativity, fights, ego clashes, jealousy, misunderstandings are causes main.

Everything disturbs me pollution, environment, draught or too much rain;

Rapes, injustice, chopping trees, accidents be they on  road, in air or train.

Leaking taps, wastage of water, withering plants get me down, it does pain;

Now I decided have to say, "Lord it is Your wish, I won't my happiness drain".

Thought I, my writings n  practices would things for the better change; but in wane

People do not wish to accept good; so now I won't hurt my heart n brain.

LET DOWN
LET DOWN 


When a woman, is physically beaten or abused, she really  feels let down. 


Harsh words wound her heart n soul beyond repair; that's when she really feels let down. 


When her own, ignore or ridicule her, feels she very hurt; she really feels let down. 


When her intelligence,  skill, capability are ignored becauseofgender; she really feels let down. 


When male siblings are given undue importance, just becauseofgender; she really feels let down. 


After being a loving caring daughter n sister,  when there is discrimination; she really feels let down. 


When her husband,  on whom she emotionally depends,  doesn't support her, she really feels let down. 


When her own kids are rude with her or ignore her; she really feels let down. 


PLEASE LOVE YOUR MOTHER, DAUGHTERS, SISTERS, WIFE, AUNTS; DON'T EVER LET THEM DOWN.

दिल में जो है, शब्दों में उसे मै ढाल न पाऊं ;

ओ साई, तुझे छोड़ के जाऊं तो कहां जाऊं ?

लिखा कुछ, पकड़ के हाथ , तब मै तेरे द्वार आ पाऊं

ओ मेरे बाबा, आशीष से तेरे, तेरे लिए आज मै कुछ लिख पाऊ

शब्द हो तेरे, हाथ भले हो मेरे; उनसे मै कुछ लिख पाऊ

सुरीली धुनमे इन शब्दों को पिरों के, तेरे लिए आज कुछ गाऊ ।

दीजिए ऐसा वरदान, मै तुम्हारे गीत और भजन गाऊ

अपनी ही धुन में गाते गाते इन्हे, मै तेरे दरबार में आऊ ।

RELATIONSHIPS
RELATIONSHIPS

Your ties for reasons small, do not ever sever

To this do, don't support your ego ever;

Do not think by doing this,  you are doing something clever

To destroy a relationship, just to your ego pamper, should  be done never.

Today a person insignificant,  you may tomorrow rever

To  maintain everlasting relationships one should always endeavour.

મારું  પોટલું

તું મારું, મસ્તી થી ભરેલું પોટલું, પ્યારું છે.

દુનિયા માં આખી, સૌથી અનોખું અને ન્યારું છે.

તોફાની બારકસ ભલે હોય; પણ, વાહલું તું, મારું છે.

મારા જીવન માં આવેલું સુખ, વરદાન તારું છે.

તારા  વાણી-વર્તન માં તોફાન, તારી આંખોમાં મસ્તી;

આવે તને બહુ મઝા જ્યારે તારી વાતો માં હું ફસ્તી.

લાવે તું જીવનમાં રંગ; અને ઘરમાં અમારા લાગે વસ્તી.

પોટલાં તારા વગર ઘર લાગે સુનું સુનું; માંગે સૈા, તારી હસતી.

Ma loves you two, with all her heart.

Since decades,  my most favourite you have always been.

To meet you, or to even get a glimpse you,  I am ever keen.

None so melodious,  so  sweet,  like you has been;

This the world from experience has now seen.

THE RICH POOR
THE RICH POOR

Oh, so poor, how very poor, these very rich millionaires are.
Feed they cannot a poor; but squander money they do, at a bar.

Jeans they wear, torn ones; n pay in thousands; in cash hard.
Or faded ones they buy, which normally one should discard.

These rich-poor, wear beads, of muli-colours, like the tribal.
Which the really poor, afford cannot, gold n silver; hence wear them as jewelry-bridal.

Their hair they cut in ways funny n beards long grow.
In fashions weird, a lot of money, they waste or throw.

The unfortunate part is, they call themselves fashionable, elite, setting a trend;
In reality, they blindly follow fashion, driving their parents, round the bend.

Feel I, wear we should, what suits us, comfortable with appealing looks.
Not just blindly follow fashion magazines and books.

गहरा है घाव, दिलो दिमाग और आत्मा पे।

हर औरत कि इज्जत है खतरे में ।

औरत ही देती है मर्द को जनम

यह क्यों भुल जाता है वो ? करो यह बार बार स्मरण।

औरत होती है एक जीती जागती व्यक्ति

होती है यह अर्धांगिनी और मा शक्ति।

वो है नहीं कोई खिलौना , करो न उसका अनादर

मा, बेहन, पत्नी, बेटी, भाभी को दो मान और आदर ।

सच्चा मर्द इज्जत देता है, इज्जत लूटता नहीं।

यह बात बेटो को सिखाइए, यही है सही

बनो औरत की ढाल, करो न उसका बुरा हाल ।

औरत है संसार की नीव, पेड़ का है जड़, न कि नाजुक सी डाल

आज से बेटियों को स्वयं सुरक्षा सिखाएं, और आत्मनिर्भर बनाइए ।

और बेटो को, खुद औरत की इज्ज़त करके, यह करना सीखाइये ।

अब न कागा काऊ काऊ करके मेहमानों के आनेकी खबर सुनाएगा ।

ऐ दुश्मन, लड़ेंगे तुमसे, हम बनके यम।

ऐ देश वासियों, हर पल तैयार है हम;

देश की इज्जत, देश की ताक़त है हम।
लहराएंगे तिरंगा गगनपे, बड़ी शान से हम।

है यह एक भारतीय सैनिक का वादा
बुलन्द है हर पल, हर हमेशा हमारा इरादा।

बस अपने बच्चोंको बनाना शूरवीर, इतना करो वादा।

ऐतबार
ऐतबार

किस पे करें हम ऐतबार ? तोड़ा है अपनो ने ही उसे बार बार;

था जिन पे पूरा विश्वास, उन्हों ने ही उसे, बनाया एक व्यापार ।

ऐसा क्या हुआ, की अपनों ने ही ठुकराया हमें लगातार ।

सोचता हूं, पैसों के लिए, रिश्तों को मिटा कर कैसे मिलेगा उन्हें करार

किसी को था अपना अहम प्यारा, उन्हें, अहम को रखना था बरकरार ।

कोई तो गुस्से में आकर, तीर चलाकर; कर गया हमपर, शब्दों का वार ।

आंसु और दर्द, इस नाजुक दिल और जिगर को मिलें बार बार, लगातार ।

पर अब तक हमें, क्यू आदत नहीं हुई, इन अश्कों को पीने की बार बार ?

अब तो दर्द से रिश्ता बना लिया है हमने; शायद खुशी तोड़ना चाहे उसे एक बार !

गीत पूरा होते ही, तोड़ दिए हमने अपने हाथों से ही, अपनी सितार के तार

इतना होने पर भी, सीख न सके व्यापार; शायद इसी लिए मिलती हैं हमें जीवनमे हार ।

जीना तो है ही, जब तक है जान, तो यूहीं जी लेंगे, बिना किए किसी पे ऐतबार ।

Hearing all this, I really pity you, sweet little girl;

It is indeed sad to see you alone in a corner, curled.

So many mishaps taken place have, in your small world.

Remember you, I do as a happy go lucky, chirpy young girl;

But unfortunately witness I,  circumstances sad  have unfurled.

Your one sided love, left you emotionally battered.

Then family matters for you, your life tattered n battered.

Faced all this you did bravely, but saw your eyes I, sad, which mattered.

Saw I everyone, to use your goodness; they cunningly catered.

Though yours;  your suffering to them hardly mattered.

Indifferent n callous towards your pain they were, all along.

Bother they did not, and things worsened; kept going wrong.

But stood you alone, firm, like a rock, hard and strong.

Glad I am, a brave heart you are, courageous n strong.

In spite of your difficulties many, you bravely fight along.

SILHOUETTE
SILHOUETTE

Suddenly a very familiar figure, at dusk I saw;

Thought I, " is it really her, or is it a visual flaw ?"

Beautiful, lean with tresses very long,  she used to be !

But knew my heart, as it throbbed aloud, " it is she," I said with glee.

Her silhouette that I cherished in my memory was perhaps long gone;

The colourful maiden I knew, was now grey n fawn.

A plump figure I saw, most unlike her; yet I knew it was her !

On seeing this silhouette, deep within me there was a stir.

Changed with years had the silhouette I lovingly carried.

Yes, it was indeed the very same person, I cherished !!!

Now she emerged, in a different figure, form and shape;

But how would that matter; her heart was the same; body had a different shape

Ran across I did, to take her in my loving arms.

My very own silhouette, with her many virtues n charm.

A Pathetic Reality
A Pathetic Reality

Heard I, about this couple elderly, now sadly on the street.

Rich n prosperous they once were, now deprived of every bit.

Once they too were able bodied, absolutely fine,  healthy n fit.

Just now looked they shabby, emaciated, hardly able to sit.

Their sons vanquished them had; lived they now on tiny *** bit(s).

Swollen were their faces tearful; and so were their old feet.

Puzzled  and   shocked they looked, beyond their wits.

A social worker now took them to a home for the aged, in transit.

With help from a legal team, got back they, their every bit.

Now their palatial villa is a comfortable home for the aged, cushy n sweet.

Adopted the social worker, they have; n threw away their kids, like ****.

They serve the needy with love n care; now besides them sit.

Try they, to independent make them; to live fine and fit.

ભુખ
ભુખ

હોય છે માનવીને જાત જાત, અને  ભાત ભાતની ભુખ; ઘણી વિશેષ અથવા વિચિત્ર પણ હોય છે અમુક

હર એક પ્રાણીને હોય છે કોઇ નેે  કોઇ ભુખ; સૌથી વધુ જોવા મળે  છે, પેટનો ખાડો પૂરવાની ભુખ

પણ અમુક લોકોને હોય છે ઠૂસી ઠૂસી ને ખાવાની ટેવ, થોડાથી પેટ ભરાય નહિ, જોઇએ અસંખ્ય બુક.

દૌલતની ભુખને લીધે તો લડી પડે છે ભાઈ બહેન, બંધુ-સખા; બદલાઇ જાય છે સંબંધો, એવી હોય છે ઝેરિલિ એ ફુંક.

શૌરતની બી  હોય છે ભુખ ઘણાને , બનવું છે કોઇ ને જગમાં ઉત્તમ અને શ્રેષ્ઠ; બીજાને કહેવું છે, " તું મારી સામે ઝુક "

કોઇ પ્રેમીઓ ને છે પ્રેમ ની ભુખ પ્યાસ, પ્રીતમના  પ્યાર ની હૂંક, લાગે એમને મીઠી, જાને કોયલની હોય એ  કુંક

સૌથી હાનિકારક છે સત્તાની, ખૂરશીની ભુખ, આં પ્રાપ્ત કરવા  માસુમોના લોહી રેડાવે છે લોકો અમુક.

કોઇ એક વિરલા ને લાગે છે ભક્તિની ભુખ, પ્રભુ પ્રેમમાં પાગલ થઈ, મલિયું હતું કબીરજી,   મીરાબાઇ ને એ સુખ.

હે નાથ, મનમાં મારા સદૈવ ઉઠતી રહે હરિ નામની લહેર, માંગુ છું શાંતિ અને આત્માનુ સુખ

प्रीत मेरी पावन, जैसे गंगा जल।
अति कोमल और अत्यंत निर्मल ।
प्रीत में, कहा आता है कभी बल;
वोह तो है समर्पण, सालो का, न के एक पल।

प्यार हो जाता है तो बस एक पल में।
औेर बस जाता है, तन, मन,  हृदय में।
जनमो का यह नाता, जोड़ता है क्यू विधाता ?
और सोचती हूं मैं, क्यों फिर जुदाई देता है दाता ?

प्रीत की रीत है अनोखी, जलता है खुशी से परवाना
और दुख में डूब कर, गाता है कोई हृदय स्पर्श गाना।
शायर, नशेमे शूमके, लिख देता है नमूनेदार शायरी
और कोई लिखता है खुद की डायरी।

"प्रीत किए दुख होए", कहता है प्रेमी, हरएक ।
फिर भी जलने के लिए तैयार है प्रेमी हरएक ।
बस देता है हरएक प्रेमी, दुआए प्रीतम को
झंखता है वोह अपने प्रीतम के संग, साथ को ।

તતોળ
તતોળ, ઝનઝોડ તારા  આં  સુસ્ત અંતર મન ને, ઓ મુર્ખ માનવ

જો તું ઉઠીશ નહિ તો, ખેંચી લેશે તને એની તરફ, પેલો પાજિ દાનવ.

જાગ અને જગાડ તારું અંતર મન; નહિ તો  થઈ જશે તું  બરબાદ

સાંભળ અને સમજ પેલો અવાજ, પાર  ઉતારશે તને એ નાદ.

હર કોઇ મથે દેખાવા સુંદર, ચમકાવે એમનું તન;

પણ તું, દીવા ની જેમ, સાફ, ઝળહળતું હમેશાં રાખ તારું મન.

પૈસા, ધન કમાજે સદ બુદ્ધિથી, આપસે મીનો અશિશ્વંઘ તને  આશિષ

કરજે ભલાઇ એ ધન થી થોડી, ફરિશ્તાઓ બી ઝુકાવશે એમનું શીશ.

હર હમેશાં, સુખમાં, દુખમાં, તોળજે તારું અંતર મન ;

એજ રીતે જેમ રાખે છે તું  શુદ્ધ, તારું આં તન.

AF  Dastur
હતાશ થઈ ગઈ હતી એ નાજુક નમણી બાલા, દુઃખ થતું એને અસહય

જ્યારે પરણી હતી એ, ત્યારે હતી એ નાદાન, કૂણી હતી એની વય

પતિની જીભ હતી કાતિલ અને કડવી; હતો એ વેહમી, અને  હતી એ, અતિ નિખાલસ

બધાં સાથે નિર્દોષભાવે, બે બોલ હસીને બોલતી, આં જ એનો ગુનો હતો બસ

કોશિશ કરી હતી દિલોજાનથી, સાસરીયાના રંગમાં ઢળવા, પણ ઘવાતું હતું એનું સ્વમાન

બિચારીને કરતાં એ હાડમાર, ઘાયલ થતાં એના દિલ, આત્મા સળગી ઉઠતા એના કાન

વિચારતી હતી એ, કે પતિ છે કે દુઃખ આપવાનું કોઈ યંત્ર, ઘાયલ થતો એનો આત્મા

વિચારતી એ કે શું ઈશ્વર છે; અને હોય તો શું બહેરો છે એનો પરમાત્મા?

થાકી ગયી હતી એ, સાંભળી તાના એના, માની લીધી હતી એને હાર

કરતી તો બી એ અરજ ભગવાનને, "હે કનહાઈ સુધાર મારા પતિનો વ્યવહાર"

A TINGE OF MADNESS
A candle  removes darkness
A  sweet smile reduces sadness
Things can further brighten with a tinge of madness.

FERVOUR
Where has gone our standard high ?

Our standard so low why has become

High very was our dedication n fervour

Sacrifices readily we gave , most willingly

To  achieve  Independence was a task easy not,  

Dedication n a  burning desire it required

We gave it all, most willingly too

What then happened to our character, why this decline

Let's bounce back before  75, Mother  INDIA turns to.

Revive let us that  spirit,  let it fade  not.

Build back our character let us, once again.

That  DEDICATION N FERVOUR has to be  revived

SLEEP
Oh miss I that childhood's sound sleep.

Into that childhood, let us once again peep;

Innocent n carefree, ourselves we must keep.

Once ills n tensions into our mind n bodies seep;

We cannot carefree be n  soundly sleep.

WOMAN OF SUBSTANCE
HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY 


Dedicated to my dearest Aunt, Dr. N D Motashaw, a living legend. 


You were always, dearest Aunty, from childhood, my idol image 


Wondered I always,  how did you such inhumanly hectic schedules manage!


Your dedication, your  expertise, grit, were uncopararable, beyond my imagination !


Hardly ever could you,  a family function attend or go for a  movie or for a  vacation. 


Endlessly you worked, long hours, deliveries,  surgeries, OPDs, lectures,  conferences !


Patients came from far and wide, with  notes from  their Docs. or with references .


Grabbing a meal in your car, when being driven from hospital one, to another


In spite of all that pressure, your confident, dimpled smile was an aspect other.


A book I could write, if I, details mention about you n your work, that would be, my real wealth. 


But I end, with loads of love, warm hugs and all good wishes, specially good health.

अभिनन्दन
अभिनन्दन

बहुत बहुत अभिनन्दन और बधाई आपको, ओ अभिनन्दन ।

आपको और आपकी वीरता को हमारे कोटी कोटी वंदन ।

भगवान का तहे दिल से धन्यवाद; प्रभु, स्वीकारिए हमारा आभार और वंदन

आपने पूरे भारत को एक डोर में बांध लिया; बड़ा ही अनोखा है यह बंधन ।

और आप ने आशीर्वाद रूप में, निल गगन से बरसाया बूंदों से बरखा-धन ।

भारत माता के वीर सपूत अभिनन्दन को हम देश वासियों का वंदन ।
जय हिन्द
जय हिन्द की सेना ।

जादू
जादू

छुआ नहीं तन को कभी,
छु लिया सीधे रूह को मेरे;

रातों को कभी सोने नहीं दिया मुझे, इस प्यार ने तेरे

ऐसे प्यार को क्या नाम दूं; जो छा जाए पूरे दिल में ;

खयालों में तु, सपनों में तु; तु ही है तन मन में

आहट होती है तो सोचू तु आया; धुंदे तुझे हरदम यह नज़र

प्रीतम मेरे,  तु ही बता यह  कैसा है प्यार का अनोखा मंज़र

दिल बेचैन, रूह बेचैन; बेचैन निगाहें मेरी;

हो गई है निराश, राह निहारते निहारते तेरी ।

मन जानता है आओगे न तुम कभी, पर दिल मानता ही नहीं;

क्या करू इस दिल का, जो सच्चाई समझता ही नहीं।

यह कैसा जादू किया तुने प्रीतम, मै रही न खुद अपनी;

पर मै क्या;  न राधा प्यारी, न मीरा रानी हो सकी तेरी पत्नी
