Amrita Pritam




Aaj aakhaN Waris Shah nuuN


aaj aakhaN Waris Shah nuuN, kitoN kabraaN vichchoN bol,
te aaj kitab-e ishq daa koii aglaa varkaa phol

ik roii sii dhii punjaab dii, tuuN likh likh maare vaen,
aaj lakhaaN dhiiaaN rondiaa, tainuN waris shah nuN kahen

uTh dardmandaaN diaa dardiaa, uth takk apnaa Punjaab
aaj bele lashaaN bichhiaaN te lahu dii bharii chenab

kise ne panjaN paniaN vichch dittii zahar ralaa
te unhaaN paniiaaN dharat nuuN dittaa paanii laa

is zarkhez zamiin de luun luun phuttia zaher
gitth gitth charhiaaN laaliaN fuuT fuuT charhiaa kaher

veh valliissii vha pher, van van vaggii jaa,
ohne har ik vans di vanjhalii ditti naag banaa

pehlaa dang madaariaN, mantar gaye guaach,
dooje dang di lagg gayii, jane khane nuN laag

laagaaN kiile lok muNh, bus phir dang hi dang,
palo palii punjaab de, neele pae gaye ang

gale`oN tutt`e geet phir, takaleon tuttii tand,
trinjanoN tuttiaaN saheliaaN, chaRakhRre ghuukar band

sane sej de beriaaN, luddaN dittiaaN rohr,
sane daliaan peengh aj, piplaaN dittii toR

jitthe vajdii sii phuuk pyaar dii, ve oh vanjhalii gayii guaach
raanjhe de sab veer aaj, bhul gaye uhadii jaach

dhartii te lahoo varsiyaa, kabraaN paiaaN choan,
preet diaaN shaahzaadiaaN, aaj vichch mazaaraaN roan

aaj sabbhe `Qaido` ban gaye, husn ishq de chor
aaj kitthoN liaaiye labbh ke waris shah ik hor

aaj aakhaN waris shah nuuN, kitoN kabraan vichchoN bol,
te aaj kitaab-e ishq daa, koii aglaa varkaa phol


Translation

Today, I call Waris Shah, “Speak from inside your grave”
And turn, today, the book of love’s next affectionate page

Once, one daughter of Punjab cried; you wrote a wailing saga
Today, a million daughters, cry to you, Waris Shah

Rise! O’ narrator of the grieving; rise! look at your Punjab
Today, fields are lined with corpses, and blood fills the Chenab

Someone has mixed poison in the five rivers’ flow
Their deadly water is, now, irrigating our lands galore

This fertile land is sprouting, venom from every pore
The sky is turning red from endless cries of gore

The toxic forest wind, screams from inside its wake
Turning each flute’s bamboo-shoot, into a deadly snake

With the first snake-bite; charmers lost their spell
The second bite turned all and sundry, into snakes, as well

Drinking from this deadly stream, filling the land with bane
Slowly, Punjab’s limbs have turned black and blue, with pain

The street-songs have been silenced; cotton threads are snapped
Girls have left their playgroups; the spinning wheels are cracked

Our wedding beds are boats, their logs have cast away
Our hanging swing, the Pipal tree has broken in disarray

Lost is the flute, which once, blew sounds of the heart
Ranjha’s brothers, today, no longer know this art

Blood rained on our shrines; drenching them to the core
Damsels of amour, today, sit crying at their door

Today everyone is, ‘Qaido;’ thieves of beauty and ardor
Where can we find, today, another Warish Shah, once more

Today, I call Waris Shah, “Speak from inside your grave”
And turn, today, the book of love’s next affectionate page

2. A man was just recovering in hospital after being unconscious for a week. His wife was sitting by his side when he woke up.

Man: Honey, you've been by my side when I was in that car crash, you were there when I lost my job, you were present when my parents died, and you were by my side when someone stole all my money from my account... and you know what?

Wife: What?

Hi,

there is one interesting news for the CRICKET lovers.

[B]England's Sikh spinner Panesar excites locals [/B] http://www.eians.com/http://www.eians.com/
By Qaiser Mohammad Ali, Indo-Asian News Service
Mohali, March 8 (IANS) Left-arm spinner Monty Panesar, who launched his Test career last week with the prized wicket of Sachin Tendulkar, will try to put up a memorable performance in front of his parents and grandparents who are expected to watch the second Test starting here Thursday.
After Panesar, the first Sikh to play for England, dismissed Tendulkar as his maiden Test victim on his debut in the drawn first Test in Nagpur, the master batsman presented his bat to him and also signed the willow.
The prospect of Paneasr, who has his roots in Ludhiana city of Punjab, playing in Mohali has excited the locals, who were heard talking about the spinner.
Apart from his immediate family members, some friends are also expected to turn up at the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium over the next five days, said Panesar.
'I don't know how many friends and family will be coming to watch the Test but certainly quite a few,' he told sportinglife.com
'It's very nice to be playing a Test match in the state (Punjab) where my family comes from, but my main focus will have to be the cricket and trying to help England,' Panesar said.
Although Mudhsuden Singh Panesar, to write his full name, took only three wickets in Nagpur, they were crucial wickets. And he began it all with the scalp of Tendulkar, and added the wickets of captain Rahul Dravid and Mohammed Kaif, who scored a fine 91.
The 23-year-old Luton-born player made his first-class debut in 2001 and has earned the England cap through sheer hard work. After having represented Bedfordshire, he turned out for Northamptonshire. On his first-class debut against Leicestershire, Panesar bagged eight for 131 to leave an instant impression.
He also played for the England under-19 side before being picked for the tour of India.
