mere astitva ke bhaal par ankit
vishwas ka ek tilak
main
tumhare saundarya ke gaal par sajjit
dithauna prem ka
attempted translation,
placed on the forehead of my existence
you are
a symbol of faith
decorated on the blush of your beauty
i am
a mark of love

*a dithauna is basically an evil eye charm of sorts, a mark applied above the cheek or above the eyebrow to ward off evil eyes.

well the first stanza made me feel a conqueror of love and the second a man who has blissfully fallen in love .... and how wonderful both the feelings were while reading one single poem of urs

Keshi.
bahut diya dene waale ne....
anchal dena bhul gaya
ya shayad yad raha tha usko
jaan ke nahi diya ki
aanchal ka woh kya karega
jisse 'bahut' ki talash nahi
woh 'kuch' jo mangta hai koi
woh aankho mein hi samaa jaata hai.
....aanchal ka main kya karun?
ya jholi se bhi ab kya hoga..??
ek chadar buni thi sapno ki...
chura le gaya wohi...
tumhara 'sab kuch' dene vaala....
ab bas aankhe band kare hi khoj raha hoon
kahin uska chehra bhi na chin jaaye meri palkon se...
Not many use to in cities anymore or so I believe, specially on baby cheeks . . . mingling with liberal does of talcum powder.
Evil eyes, indeed!
