Kabir Das k Dohe

कबीर दास के दोहे

पोथी पढ़ि पढ़ि जग मुआ, पंडित भया न कोय ।

ढाई आखर प्रेम का, पढ़े सो पंडित होय ॥

Hanuman Chalisa Lyrics & Meaning

 जय जय जय बजरंगबली, तोड़ दे दुश्मन की नली

दोहा

श्रीगुरु चरण सरोज रज, निज मनु मुकुर सुधारि।

बरनउँ रघुबर बिमल जसु, जो दायकु फल चारि।।

Prometheus - A poem by Goethe

Prometheus  - A poem by Goethe

Shroud your heaven, Zeus,

With cloudy vapours,

And do as you will, like the boy

That beheads thistles,

With oak-trees and mountain-tops;

You must my Earth

Now abandon to me,

And my hut, which you did not build,

And my hearth,

Whose glow

You begrudge me.

Lord Of My Life

Lord Of My Life

Thou who art the innermost Spirit of my being,

art thou pleased, Lord of my Life?

For I give to thee my cup filled with all

the pain and delight that the crushed

grapes of my heart had surrendered,

I wove with rhythm of colors and song cover for thy bed,

And with the molten gold of my desires

I fashioned playthings for thy passing hours.

I know not why thou chosest me for thy partner,

Lord of my life.

Didst thou store my days and nights,

my deeds and dreams for the alchemy of thy art,

and string in the chain of thy music my songs of autumn and spring,

and gather the flowers from my mature moments for thy crown?

I see thine eyes gazing at the dark of my heart,

Lord of my life,

I wonder if my failure and wrongs are forgiven.

For many were my days without service

and nights of forgetfulness; futile were the flowers

that faded in the shade not offered to thee.

Often the tied strings of my lute slackened

at the strains of thy tunes.

And often at the ruin of wasted hours

my desolate evenings were filled with tears.

But have my days come to their end at last,

Lord of my life, while my arms round thee

grow limp, my kisses losing their truth?

Then break up the meeting of this languid day!

Renew the old in me in fresh forms of delight;

and let the wedding come once again in

a new ceremony of life.

A Poem by Rabindranath Tagore :-

This Dog

        This Dog

Every morning this dog, very attached to me,

Quietly keeps sitting near my seat

Till touching its head

I recognize its company.

This recognition gives it so much joy

Pure delight ripples through its entire body.

Among all dumb creatures

It is the only living being

That has seen the whole man

Beyond what is good or bad in him

It has seen

For his love it can sacrifice its life

It can love him too for the sake of love alone

For it is he who shows the way

To the vast world pulsating with life.

When I see its deep devotion

The offer of its whole being

I fail to understand

By its sheer instinct

What truth it has discovered in man.

By its silent anxious piteous looks

It cannot communicate what it understands

But it has succeeded in conveying to me

Among the whole creation

What is the true status of man.

A Poem by Rabindranath Tagore :-

A Lovely Night

A Lovely Night

Now I leave this little hut ,

Where my beloved lives ,

Walking now with veiled steps

Through the shadowy leaves .

Luna shines through bush and oak

Zephyr proclaims her path

And the birch trees bowing low

Shed incense on her track .

How beautiful the coolness

Of this lovely summer night !

How soul fills with happiness

Is this true place of quiet

I can scarcely grasp the bliss !

Yet ,heaven I would shun

A thousand night like this ,

If my darling granted one

A poem by Goethe:-
