उजड़ता गाँव......

आ के गुफ़्तगू करें हल्की धूप में सुकूं को छांव लेकर
सुना के जमाना अब बिखरने वाला है......
तो चलें कहीं और मोहब्बत की नाव लेकर।

अख़बारों में , टीवी के पर्दों पर हर रोज कई हादसे हैं
उलझन में हैं कि कहाँ जाएँ......
ये गहरे घाव लेकर।

मैं हिंदू तू मुसलमान, मैं छोटा तू बड़ा ये रहबर तो फंसे हैं बस इन्ही जंजालों में
और हकीकतें लाइलाज मर गयी......
रिसते घाव लेकर।

फूलों को रौंद दिया है अब ये तमाम गुलज़ार खून से लतपथ है
गर तू है कहीं तो सहारा दे , निकल पड़े हैं
आँखों में उजड़ता गाँव लेकर।

His universal popularity and presence is bewildering. He is everywhere: In Uttarakhand agitation, taking out “prabhat pheris” i...

तुम्हारी उम्रों के पैर थके हुए नजर आते हैं कि वो चल रही हैं सफर अपना, और बहुत लाज़मी भी है बातों का उसी तरह घटित होना जैसा कि उनको होना है तुम्हारे वहाँ होने से जहाँ कि तुम हो भल...

Transcending Borders

Transcending Borders Narendra Singh Negi and the Ethos of Romanticism Narendra Singh Negi, a poetic voice resonating through the gorgeous valleys of the Uttarakhand Himalayas, exemplifies the Romantic sensibility in a manner that transcends mere physical landscapes. His songs and poems, much like the European Romantics and American Transcendentalists, echo a longing for transcendence; an existential wish to connect profoundly with nature, humanity, and the cosmos. What sets Negi apart is his use of the vernacular tongue, drawing from the everyday life of shepherds, grass reapers, and villagers, blending the simplicity of the life of hill folk with the profound depth of Romantic thought. Negi’s songs and poems, akin to the poetic expressions of Romantic poets like Wordsworth, Keats, and Robert Frost, reflect an unfathomable reverence for nature. His lyrics whole-heartedly celebrate the feelings of love with a deep exploration of the human condition. Yet, h...
