गाँव से लौटे हुए सपने चुरा कर साथ लाए फूल सरसों के!
गुल ने पूछा गली की धूल ने पूछा- कहो क्या हाल है? वहाँ से लेकर यहाँ तक एक मकड़ी ने बुना यह जाल है नदी-नाले, पहुँच वाले बह गए, बस फँस गए बच्चे मदरसों के!
बतकही बहसें बनीं मेले हुए बाज़ार सब 'गाहक' हुए खेत की मूली मुक़दमें में टंगी झूली अरे, सरपंच जी नाहक हुए ब्लेड की खुरचन लिखा है डाक्टर ने जानलेवा घाव फरसों के!
गरम मुट्ठी, नरम बोली घाघरा चोली कि तोहफ़ा प्यार का किसी कोने से टटोलो मामला बनता नहीं है कहीं भ्रष्टाचार का! खा गये मुंशी-दरोगा चहकते अरमान दिल के आजकल के नहीं बरसों के!

The Poet
दिनेश सिंह
Dinesh Singh
1948 · 1970s
Kanwar Dinesh Singh is a vital contemporary voice who moves with remarkable grace between English and Hindi literary traditions. Born in 1973 in New Delhi and deeply shaped by the mountainous landscapes of Shimla, he has carved out a unique space as both a poet and a pioneering haikuist in Hindi literature. While many modern writers lean heavily on complex intellectualism, Singh finds profound beauty in brevity. Through collections like Kuhra Dhanush and Aangan Mein Gauraiya, he adapts the strict, minimalist structure of the Japanese haiku to the linguistic rhythms of Hindi, capturing fleeting moments of nature and delicate human emotions. He also serves as a professor and literary critic, consistently working to foster dialogue between different literary cultures. Honored with the Himachal Pradesh Sahitya Akademi Award, Singh demonstrates that poetry does not need to be loud to be deeply impactful. He is a writer of quiet observation, proving that immense philosophical weight can often be carried in just a few carefully chosen syllables.
Paired Painting
Keechaka and Sairandhri
This profound work captures a harrowing moment from the Virata Parva of the Mahabharata. It depicts the villainous Keechaka, the commander of King Virata, as he approaches the disguised Draupadi, known here as Sairandhri, with dishonorable intentions. The painting masterfully portrays the psychological contrast between Keechaka, who is blinded by his own arrogance and lust, and the trembling yet defiant Sairandhri. Varma utilized his mastery of light and shadow to heighten the theatrical tension of this illicit encounter, serving as a poignant reminder of the dignity and peril faced by the heroine during the period of her exile. It is a work that demands we look beyond the surface of the royal court to the moral gravity of the situation.
