What is a life hidden under
the mask?
Our world is in a battlefield
No kings or queens and literate elites could claim,
we are untouchable…

Easy it might be for those
Who wear different masks from time to time to fool the folk,
But to those who love truth, beauty and justice,
Empathize with the hungry and the suffering
It is somewhat strange and at times choking.

d Auf den ersten Blick
…..
Meine Gefühle haben sich bewegt
Als ich sie sah
Im Rosengarten
Der Himmel wurde schöner
Als ob es Zucker regnet
Auf den ersten Blick faszinierte es mich mit Iher Schönheit
Mein Herz war voller Liebe
Und ich fing an viel nachzudenken
Wie komme ich dorthin?
Wie kann ich sie davon überzeugen, meine Freundin zu werden?

Locking down humanity threatening our sanity,
Washing hands compulsively fight virus repulsively,
Wearing masks in endless isolation in pandemic condition,
Life is at standstill with journeys canceled to move inwards,
Not to give in to gloom or fear but being kind to each other …
स्वांग का जलसा
मानवता को खतरे में डालने वाली तालाबंदी,
अनिवार्य रूप से वायरस से लड़ने के लिए हाथ धोना,
महामारी की स्थिति में अंतहीन अलगाव में मास्क पहनना,
यात्रा के साथ जीवन गतिरोध में है, जो अंदर की ओर बढ़ने के लिए रद्द कर दिया गया है,
उदासी या भय में नहीं बल्कि एक दूसरे के प्रति दयालु होने के लिए।

كنا نتساءل فيما بيننا
كيف سنعود الى حضن الشمس
وجميع الطرق مسدودة ؟
خرج من بقعة الوحل
وجه دائري يشبه طائر الجنة
اشار الى جبل بلا روح
هناك جثث بلا ماء
تئن تحت اغصان التين
تصرخ…!!!

The night had come without amask,
Setting with silence and cold.
May you can look at the bright moon at this time again,
May you can wish for the meteors without any doubts or pains.
夜 已近在沒有口罩的当口,
请持冷静共平稳。
希望你 此時能再望明明的月光,
希望你 可以不带任何质疑共悲伤,
相信流星的青痕。

A gentle wind rocks the swing on my cherry tree.

Sometimes I sit and rock myself up high
To see the bright horizon from afar.

my life
You want to hear raindrops
On my papers
I am sick of yellowing
She loves greenery and roses
my life
The same in the joy of fruits
And telling in ideas
my life
Same in my words
Itself fall in the ears
Empty from my harvest
In rhymes and lessons
To clear maps of illusions
Ideas are decorated
Get me tomorrow
To suck the rest of the honey
حياتي
تريد سماع قطرات المطر
على أوراقي
سئمت الإصفرار
تعشق الخضرة والورود
حياتي
نفسها في لذة الثمار
والحكي في الأفكار
حياتي
نفسها في كلماتي
نفسها في سقوط السنابل
الفارغة من حصادي
في القوافي والعبر
لتمسح خرائط الأوهام
وتزين الأفكار
تأتيني بالغد
لأمتص ما تبقى من العسل

She asked, “IS IT LIVELY LIFE ?”
WITHOUT HANDCUFF, PRISONER I’m
HIDDEN BEHIND A MASK!
NEEDS TO FLY IN THE INFINITE SKY, UNPREJUDICELY
SEEM TO BE A BIRD ONLY!

জীৱন বাৰু সতেজনে, তাই সুধে ?
এখনি মুখাৰ আঁৰে, আজি মই যেন বন্দী ;
অসীম আকাশখনিলৈ চাই, পক্ষপাতহীন হৈ, স্বাভাৱিকতে উৰা মাৰে,
মাথো এক পক্ষীৰ দৰে ।

Life is influenced
Tuesday,23rd June 2020
Neither we are unreachable
nor untouchables
we are accessible
for all the individuals
despite the life having dark clouds
it speaks very loud
about the beauty of nature
and human creature
we might live
and under the shadow and believe
that life can be pulled under the comofledge
you are revealing the mask on page
we live under the illusion
and care little for human relation
but it is equally important too
you got to present positive side too
little untruth here and there
it may cause little flutter
but ultimately it influences later
and life is changed altogether
Hasmukh Mehta
