Explore, Dream & Discover

"Follow your dreams, believe in yourself and don't give up..."

"Life is full of beauty, you only need to look at it carefully. Don't miss the small pleasures of life, specially when you grow up and your life gets very busy. Notice the footprints on the sand or kids making adobe, small baby smiling or honey bee, small the rain and feel the wind. Don't miss any such opportunity which comes to you to enjoy such moments and during all this don't miss to
" Dream". You will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you do.

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. Edgar Allan Poe

"आँख खुली तो लगा,

किसी के क़दमों की आह्ट सुनी,

अलसाई सी आँखों को मिचमिचाते हुए,

बाहर झाँका , पर कोई नहीं था

उठकर बाहर आयी

दूर तक ऊंचे लम्बे देवदार,

और उनमे से झांकती हुई सूरज की किरणें,

फिर ले गयीं मुझे

उन पुरानी गलियों में,

यूँ ही बेवजह इन पगडंडियों पर

टहलते रहते थे हम,

वो बारिश की बूंदों में तेरा साथ,

सर्दियों की धुंध में

हाथों में गरम चाय की भाप,

सब फिर से एक पल में

घूम गया इन आँखों में;

देखा फिर उन पगडंडियों पर,

दूर तक भी कोई नज़र नहीं आता था,

लगा, तेरी आह्ट नहीं कोई ख्वाब था,

शायद ख्वाब ही होगा......"

Translation:

"As I woke up
I felt somebody's footsteps
I managed to look outside
but nobody was there...

I came outside
All I could see was till far away
was the Pine trees
And the sun peeping through them...

It took me back in my
world of thoughts
when we use to walk aimlessly
on those trails...

Oh being with you
In those rainy days
Having hot cuppa tea
during the foggy winter days
I relived all those moments
In this minute...

I again looked again towards those trails
I couldn't see anyone,
I felt, it was not your footstep but dream
Oh yes, may be it was..."
