Holi Ka Eik Din

Holi, the festival of colours, is the festival I love the most. It is the day of the year I am the most happy, since as long as I can remember. It is one of the most delightful days.

This year, like the last, I wasn't home for Holi. And wrote these lines sitting in my room in Bombay.
A few lines....

फिर वोही दिन चढ़ा है आज,

वोही फिर सुबह आई है।

रंग भी उड़ा है 

और शोर भी मचा है।

मैं इस दिन में लेकिन 

कहीं  खोया हुआ हूँ।

न कोई रंग फेंकने को है 

और न ही भिगाने को।

इस छोटे से झरोखे से ही 

दुनिया की रौनक को देखता हूँ।

इन्ही खुश नजारों में 

खुद को खुश करता हूँ।

'नूर'

And as always, for my friends who prefer reading it in English text - 

Phir wohi din chadha hai aaj

Wohi phir subah aayi hai.

Rang bhi udaa hai

aur shor bhi machaa hai.

Main iss din mein lekin

Kahin khoya hua hun.

Na koi rang phenkne ko hai

Aur na hi bhigaane ko.

Iss chhote se jharokhe se hi

Duniya ki raunak ko dekhta hun.

Inhi khush nazaron mein

Khud ko khush karta hun.

'Noor'
