I endeavour to maintain a clutter free, simple reading environment that takes just a few minutes to read a complete story. This blog is free for all. One way you could 'repay' me if you like the story you have read is to refer others to this blog and the specific story. I would appreciate that kind of word-of-mouth (or its modern equivalent - email, link, Facebook posting) advertising, since it is the best kind. Kindly do to the extent you can without feeling uncomfortable or like a spammer.

Thanks for visiting and hope you enjoy reading!

JeeteJi (While Still Living)

JEETEJI

Jeeteji sun-nah chahoonga
Aapki taalian
Aapki gaalian
Marne ke baad kya sun paoonga?
Apni har shikayat
Har shaabashi
abhi keh daalo
Shaayad main ab bhi kuch ban paoonga! 


English Translation:
WHILE STILL LIVING

While still living I'd like to hear
your every cheer,
your every jeer
What can I hear when I'm no longer here?
Your every brickbat
Your every bouquet
Give it to me right now!
Perhaps I still can become something,
Something better somehow
