I can see you there...

You remind me of myriad belongings and
I envision a rose 
A beautiful red rose utterly blossomed
That brings delight into
All creatures,
All the inordinate amounts of time
Every moment I assume you.
To myself my love
You introduced me
So far I have been ignorant with
I always sit next to me.

Countless rooms are there
In the friendless house of my love
Yours is
The entire house;
Make it an abode with all affection
With all the things of light,
Fascinating fragrance of the spring
And the bright feelings of
Light you are.

Blissful I am to see the light
There isn’t darkness anymore
Nor the dreadful gloom
Let’s walk through time together
My love let it bloom.

I can see you there
But touch I cannot make
You shatter the glass I beseech
The glass of illusion and daydream
And sit next to me
For long my love,
Here it rains
I’ll rise from my chair
To felicitate this gentle rain.

See how it scatters into infinite colours, To say something about the energy that shakes and shivers my being, grossly and subtly, I just witness the play that unfolds, When I... behold such a highland beauty. Do I Dare to touch! Ah, Intangible! with all my adoration to the 'Divine Feminine'. Do I dare to ask you to let the self flow with the finitude of time, or the moment, synonyms though, and timeless. Do I dare, to dream of an utopian piece of earth, with all the highest that human eye and intelligence may grasp; This 'Adana Raga.... Shiva Shiva Shiva...' Do I dare, to dance, whole of body seems lifting up with this intense e...

कराह

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...
