ऐ दशक तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया


Starting with my heartiest Thanks to MANAS and RASHI for bringing this fabulous unique BlogHop Themed “DECADES” for us.
I used to write a piece of thought, quite some time, from my school days, anything which I felt to express used to pen it, this habit of writing inherited in me from my dad, who used to maintain his diary on daily basis.
Writing about my decade journey was like moving the mountain in the way Salman Khan did in Tubelight Movie, which only I feel its moving but in actual it wasn’t. Hehehe!!! but somehow accepted the challenge braverly. The day, Manas and Rashi have announced about BlogHop, max of the time I found myself, wearing a coat and cap of Director/writer, in the feel of, making my own movie named DECADE, jotted down on few topics, (like why to worry, I will definitely succeed in searching the best topic to write on), what next, just relax mode on; And the entry of myth-buster took place, as 21st Jan 2020 morning hit, I was like ohh !!! How perfectly I prepared my script by burning the midnight oil, Gosh!!!! The movie (topic what I was thinking of) has already released and undoubtedly, in the best way from so many outstanding blogger buddies, and wait!! here the final show starts, my so-called jot down list getting shorter and shorter till it reached zero !!!!!!
So finally decided to share my decade journey and it’s highs and lows in few lines of my poem. , nothing is new, nothing more achieved as I still feel like a newcomer and every single day brings one more opportunity for me to learn something new. I had never been so ambitious about my career/life but yes, I always dreamt of spreading my wings in an open sky and fly high with whatever I had in my hands few or more. I lived my decade wholeheartedly, with the mix flavors of all colors of life, happiness, sadness, frustration, good/bad surprises, mistakes, and so on……..
So concluding my decade story’s cherishable moments in the form of poetry and that’s too in Hindi…
कुछ खोया है कुछ पाया है , ज़िन्दगी के बेमिसाल सालों को मैंने खुशनुमा यादों में पिरोया हैं
लम्हो ने कभी कुंठाग्रस्त किया ,कभी संयम को हथियार बना
ऐ दशक, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया
काशी की नगरी से उठकर ,विक्टोरिया के गलियारों तक ,दगडू सेठ से बाजीराव शनिवार वाड़ा तक सब एक किया
सुन, ऐ दशक, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया
शहर बदला दुनिया बदली ,सुन्दर जीवन की शुरुआत हुई ,ये उन् दिनों की बात हैं जब ख्वाबों ने पाँव पसारा है
ऐ दशक, तू सुन रहा है ना, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया है
अल्हड़ सी थी मैं जोश जेहन में लेकर चली ,कौतुहल की गगरी लिए एक आशियां नया बसाया हैं
ऐ दशक, मैंने कहा ,तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया हैं
क्रिकेट की दुनिया में जब धोनी का सिक्का चलता था जहाँ उसकी शादी पर ना जाने कितनों का दिल भी टूटा था
हर गली मोहल्ले में खुशियों का बिगुल बजा जब वर्ल्ड कप घर आया ऐ दशक, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया
समय बहुत था ,रास्ता नया था अधूरे सपनों को फिरसे आँखों में बसाया है
रब दी सौ ,ऐ दशक, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया हैं
साल पर साल बढ़ते हुए , Full Time तो नहीं पर Guest Faculty बनकर काम का शुभारम्भ किया
मेरे शिक्षा का संसार भी अपनी गति से चल पड़ा ऐ दशक, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया
हर पल कुछ सिखने का खुद से किया एक वादा था
डांस,हो या करियर उस दौर में सबका आगाज़ हुआ
ऐ दशक,सच में ,तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया
वक़्त के उस मोड़ पर एक दोस्त प्यारा छोड़ गया ,मेरे जन्मदिन के कुछ लम्हों से पहले वो इस दुनिया से उस दुनिया में विलीन हुआ
ऐ दशक, इस बार तूने रूला दिया ।।।।।।।।।।।।।।।।।।
ये समय है जनाब हंसने रोने का इस पर ना कभी असर होगा,लो ले आया पैगाम एक नए महाद्वीप की ओर रुख करने का
ऐ दशक, तूने दिल भारी कर दिया।
एक और है सर्दी आयी,पर समय का पहरा उल्टा है रात और दिन ने हेरा फेरी करके अपनी जगह से खेला है
एक बार फिरसे, ऐ दशक, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया है
खट्टी मीठी यादों से एक दशक ख़तम होने को आया
कुछ प्रियजनों से छूटा एक बार फिरसे साथ,कुछ साथ नया हिस्से में आया
फिर भी, ऐ दशक, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया
This was all about my journey from 2010 -2020. And the journey goes on……..!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have A Happy Decade Ahead!!!!!!!!

Kitna sahi hai, dekha jaye to hum sabhi ne us beete huye dashak ko dil se lgaya hai chahe us samay ne kitna hi hasaya ho ya rulaya ho. Loved reading your poem!

Covering the decade in a verse is a beautiful way. It reflected your spirit, desire to live in the moment and actually doing that. I enjoyed reading your take but you are living proof of enjoying each passing moment. Cheers to that!

Beautifully described your journey dear. Especially from Kashi to Bajiro Shaniera wada. Loved the poetic style of expression. The last stanza is very touching and all I can say is that you have really lived a worthwhile decade. Best wishes for the new decade !!
Thanks a lot Anjali, for lovely wishes and words. 🙂
It was such a beautiful poem! Native language has its own flair for sure.
We learn something every day. The day we stop learning, we stop growing. And, isn’t life all about living it to the fullest?
Best wishes for the decade. 🙂

Thanks so much Sundeep for your words,please do visit again. 🙂
You have said it right that life moves on and good/bad keeps sailing. Only we change our perspective and tackle it differently at every stage.
Strongly Agree with You Geethica, Thanks for Dropping by. 🙂
Since my hindi is a little weak (learnt from Bollywood and tv serials😝) I had to read it twice. And I’m glad I took the effort. Loved it.
I loved the concluding line which sums up each verse – ae dashak, maine tujhe dil se jiya…. rula diya….. and bhari kar diya!!!! You’ve done well with your writer/director cap. I think I’ll borrow it some day!! Well done!! 👍👍
Thank you so much Radhika for your efforts in reading Hindi and your kind words, would love to share my cap ;), once I get it. 🙂
Aapki marmsparshi kavita padh ke khushi hui! Sachmuch is dashak ki khatti meeti yadein jivan bhat yaad raheingi! Pallavi Acharya
Thank you so much for your lovely words. 🙂
Its a great achievement to write verse in Hindi! I liked the way you have combined the various pathos in the poem. Keep going! – Rohit Verma
Thank you so much Rohit. 🙂
So well crafted, dil khush ho gaya apke kavita padh ke. Hope you have ana amazing next decade 🙂
Thank you so much Manisha for the read and like, I wish you the same. 🙂
Wow! Just wow. Some of those words you’ve used are so beautiful and heartwarming. And kavita ki flow bhi itni anokhi hai, that it’s almost musical. Khoob likhte ho, aur aise hi likhte raho.
Thank you so much Pavi for your so motivating words, glad you liked it. 🙂
Wow archana.. what a response to prompt..I think one of the best and outstanding..loved the way you had narrated the journey of last decade with beautiful words..love the tag line, “A dashak tujhe maine dil se jiya hai..”. one more thing, your poem has made me nostalgic too. here in USA, I rarely get a chance to listen pure and beautiful hindi. your post reminded me my school days where we friends used to participate in various hindi related competitions. all the best for new decade and it is really great to get connected with you.
Thank you for your words and wishes, Glad to hear, that you liked it Surbhi and through this Hindi version somewhere you could revive your memories of sweet childhood. 🙂
Maza aa Gaya padhkar. Bilkul mere type ka post hai. Jo feelings poem ke through kam shabdo mein express ho hati hai vo shayad 1000 words ke article main Bhi Nahi ho pati. Ye Mera manna hai. Mai Bhi poetry ke through apna decade experience share karna chahti thi pale par baad mein kinhi vajhon se mix kar diya.
Your words made my day Deepika, Completely Agree with you , have read your poems, must say you are too good at it, I also love to express my thoughts through poetry thank you so much for your words. 🙂
Wow! Simple mein bhi khoobsurat.
Janaki (@beyond the familiar)
Lovely and catchy heading and the lovely poem too. U(Writer-Director) have indeed done justice to the decade by burning midnight oil and presenting this piece.
फिर भी, ऐ दशक, तुझे मैंने दिल से जिया is a very positive line in itself that says live every day fully and completely.
Bahut Acha Likha Aapne . Apke dost se bicharne Ka dukh hua . Par sukh dukh dono sath sath chalte Hain . Jeevan chalne Ka naam chalte raho subaho sham ……
Mazaa aa gaya! So well penned and such a natural flow of words. Sach mein aapne sirf dil se jiya hi nahi, dil se likha bhi hai.
Your decade in verse—a beautiful compilation of your fondest and most touching memories last decade!
What is most important is how you accepted, embraced, and lived them.
And you did that the best way—dil se! 🙂
