Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Now as I approach my 90th birthday ( 27 June 2023 ) , I invite you to visit my Digital Avatar ( www.hemenparekh.ai ) – and continue chatting with me , even when I am no more here physically

આહ ની ઘડીઓ



_________________________________________________________________________________
મારી તારી પ્રીત ના શમણાં
સવારે સમી જશે  ;

ઓતરાદા વાયરા ની
ઉમ્ર શું બાકી  ?

આહ ની ઘડીઓ તો
ગણી ગણાય
તેટલી જ રહી હવે  ;

અષાઢ ની આ રાતે
મેહુલો પણ
મન મૂકી ને ક્યાં વરસે છે  ?

ધરબાઇ ગયાં જળ કલેજાં માં ,
પણ
આંખ આંખ ને તરસે છે।

सुबह होते ही
प्यार के सपने
उड़ जायेंगे

ईशान से जो आई हवा
उसकी उम्र क्या बाकी  ?


और कितनी बची हैं वो आहें  ?
अब तो
अंदाज़ के काबिल भी
न रही वो आहे  !


क्यों रुक रुक कर
रो रही है बरखा  ?


अगर रोना ही था तो ,
अश्क को
क्यों दिल में
छिपा रही हैं बरखा  ?



तुम्हारी आँख से
हर एक
बूँद जो बरसी


मेरे कलेजे में
समाये जा रही हैं

======================================================================

I Love You So Much

Will Be Over In The Morning;

 

Otrada Vaira Ni

What Is The Age Left?

 

So The Hours Of Ah

Counts

It Remains The Same Now;

 

On This Night Of Ashadha

Mehulo Too

Where Does It Rain When You Put Your Mind To It?

 

In The Flooded Colleges,

Also

An Eye Is Thirsty For An Eye.
