बजाहिर खूब सोना चाहता हूँ हक़ीक़त है कि रोना चाहता हूँ

अश्क़ आँखों को नम करते नहीं अब जख़्म यादों से धोना चाहता हूँ

वक़्त बिखरा गया जिन मोतियों को उन्हे फिर से पिरोना चाहता हूँ

कभी अपने ही दिल की रहगुजर में कोई खाली सा कोना चाहता हूँ

नई शुरूआत करने के लिये फिर कुछ नये बीज बोना चाहता हूँ।

गये जो आत्मविस्मृति की डगर पर उन्ही में एक होना चाहता हूँ।

भेद प्रायः सभी के खुल चुके हैं मैं जिन रिश्तों को ढोना चाहता हूँ

नये हों रास्ते मंजिल नई हो मैं इक सपना सलोना चाहता हूँ।

’अमित’ अभिव्यक्ति की प्यासी जड़ो को निज अनुभव से भिगोना चाहता हूँ।

The Poet

अमिताभ त्रिपाठी 'अमित'

Amitabh Tripathi ‘Amit’

Amitabh Tripathi 'Amit' belongs to a rare class of contemporary Hindi poets who write to hold up an unflinching mirror to society. His verse is stripped of complex academic jargon and strikes directly at the center of modern Indian realities. In works like his celebrated poem "Bas Itna Sa Samachar Hai" (This is All the News There Is), Tripathi captures the everyday ironies, widespread corruption, and moral compromises of the present age with devastating precision. He dismantles hollow idealism and gives a powerful voice to the common man navigating a broken system. To read Amitabh Tripathi is to be awakened from civic slumber. His poems are not merely complaints; they are urgent pleas for a return to collective conscience and integrity.

At The Bath

Raja Ravi Varma breathed a revolutionary spirit into Indian art by marrying Western oil techniques with the rich inner grace of Indian life. In this intimate portrayal, a young woman stands quietly by a water tank, wrapped in a damp white garment that clings gently to her form. Her cascading dark hair and contemplative gaze invite the viewer into a moment of pure, unhurried solitude. The play of light across her shoulders and the stone steps reflects Varma's deep mastery of chiaroscuro, turning a simple daily ritual into an enduring poetry of form and light.
