जब वो काले दिन आये, जब मन में गम का साया छाया।
दिमाग ने कहा दोस्तों से पूछो, वहीं से तुमने अब तक आराम है पाया।
दोस्तों से पूछा तो वो बोले हमसे न होगा कुछ दोस्त, अपने पालकों से पूछो।
पालकों ने कहा पंडितों से पूछो और पंडित ने कहा भगवान से पूछो।
भगवान ने कहा दिल से पूछो और दिल ने बोला दिमाग से पूछो।
दिमाग से पूछा तो बोला, बहुत भटक लिए दोस्त।
अब समय आ गया है, ये दुनिया ही छोड़ दो।
When the dark days came, when the shadow of gloom lay in the heart.
The mind said, ask friends, from there you have found rest till now.
Asked by friends, then they said we can’t do anything, ask your parents.
The parents told me to ask the pundits and the Pandit told me to ask God.
Lord said ask the heart and the heart said, ask the mind.
Interrogated, the mind, he said,
“O’ Wandering friend,
Now the time has come, leave this world.”
Apanaa Gam leke kahii.n aur na jaayaa jaaye
ghar me.n bikharii huii chiizo.n ko sajaayaa jaaye
jin chiraaGo.n ko havaao.n kaa koii Khauf nahii.n
un chiraaGo.n ko havaao.n se bachaayaa jaaye
baag me.n jaane ke aadaab huaa karate hai.n
kisii titalii ko na phuulo.n se u.Daayaa jaaye
Khudakushii karane kii himmat nahii.n hotii sab me.n
aur kuchh din yuu.N hii auro.n ko sataayaa jaaye
ghar se masjid hai bahut duur chalo yuu.N kar le.n
kisii rote hue bachche ko ha.Nsaaya jaaye

I would have loved the ending which says “Not to worry about that dark shadow lingering behind…” more though…as i have developed a tendency to not see negativity around me 🙂

This one just came to me in a moment and I posted it. If I have more ideas for poems I will include some positivity in them too 🙂
