At one point or the other, I have tried my hand at English prose, Hindi prose and English poetry (a couple of very questionable attempts). What is the one thing that I have never tried?
Hindi poetry!
Here is my first attempt at Hindi poetry (again a very questionable attempt).
Can’t claim that the concept is original. Neither do I claim that it is good. All that I claim is, I was looking out the window, the original song was stuck in my head, playing itself over and over again and I thought of how I can make it more interesting/funny and yet leave space for some romance.
Mere saamne wali khidki mein ek ullu ka pattha rehta hai,
Afsos yeh hai ki woh hum se milta julta rehta hai
Mere saamne waali khidki mein ek chand ka tukda rehta hai,
Afsos yeh hai ki woh har din ullu ke patthe se milti hai
