Ek aur heera, ek aur hissa!

Yet another masterpiece from Alok Ji. A beautiful representation of the pain of separation yet the hope and longing of reuniting one more time even if for just one more time..

अगर एक लड़की भागती है

तो यह हमेशा जरूरी नहीं है

कि कोई लड़का भी भागा होगा

कई दूसरे जीवन प्रसंग हैं

जिनके साथ वह जा सकती है

कुछ भी कर सकती है

महज जन्म देना ही स्त्री होना नहीं है..

Sarveshwar Dayal Saxena's basic political and moral concerns portrayed in this poem are resonant in today's times more than ever.

Paash was assassinated for his attacks on oppression through his poetry. If he were alive today, the general oppressiveness of the country would have killed him anyway. Paash always wrote about the significance of dreams and he finds ‘the death of dreams’ as the ‘most dangerous’ human predicament.

Amrita Pritam is known to be a one woman revolution, far ahead of her times. Her poetry reflects the rebellious heart she penned her words with. She asked difficult questions and challenged those things that everyone accepted as the norm.

Paash's compelling words trigger the depths of your conscience and dare you to dream.
