#Haiku
[Haiku Selection and
Translation in Hindi by
-Dr. Anglee Deodhar]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
alone on the path
meeting
only flowers
पथ पर अकेले
मिलते
केवल फूल
butterfly flying
over there over here over there
over here again
तितली उड़ रही
वहाँ यहाँ वहाँ
और फिर यहाँ
moon
on the lake
a happy face
चन्द्रमा
झील पर एक
हँसमुख चेहरा
flash, then
thunder
shakes leaves
चमक, फिर
गर्जन
पत्ते हिला रही
rain forest
every tree cut down
shallows my breath
वर्षा-वन
मेरी साँस उथला हो जाती है
हर वृक्ष के कटने पर
