तरूण, तुम्हारी शक्ति अतुल है जहाँ कर्म में वह बदली है वहॉं राष्ट्र का नया रुप सम्मुख आया है वैयक्तिक भी कार्य तुम्हारा सामूहिक है
और जहाँ हो वहीं तुम्हारी जीवनधारा जड़ चेतन को आप्यायित, आप्लावित करती है कोई देश तुम्हारी साँसों से जीवित है और तुम्हारी आँखों से देखा करता है और तुम्हारे चलने पर चलता रहता है
मनोरंजनों में है इतनी शक्ति तुम्हारे जिससे कोइ राष्ट्र बना बिगड़ा करता है सदा सजग व्यवहार तुम्हारा हो जिससे कल्याण फलित हो।

The Poet
Trilochan
1917 · 2007
Trilochan Shastri, born Vasudev Singh in 1917, was an indispensable pillar of the progressive movement in modern Hindi poetry. While many of his contemporaries looked to the cities for inspiration, Trilochan kept his literary gaze firmly fixed on the rural heartland. He wrote with the sweat, dust, and quiet resilience of agrarian India, stripping his verse of artificial romanticism to reveal the stark truths of poverty and human endurance. He also accomplished a rare structural feat by successfully adapting the English sonnet form to the rhythms of the Hindi language. His celebrated collection Tap Ke Taaye Hue Din earned him the Sahitya Akademi Award in 1982. Passing away in 2007, Trilochan left behind a literary legacy that proves true poetic brilliance does not require elite vocabulary. He remains the definitive voice of the Indian soil, writing poems that feel as enduring and grounded as the earth itself.

Portrait of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj on Horseback
This evocative artwork immortalizes Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, the visionary founder of the Maratha Empire, as he rides forth among his devoted followers. He holds his sword aloft with quiet determination, embodying the spirit of self-rule and righteousness, known as Swarajya, that inspired generations. Surrounding him, loyal soldiers and subjects gaze upward with profound reverence and unwavering loyalty. The gentle hues and expressive brushwork capture not merely a moment of military movement, but an eternal symbol of pride, freedom, and cultural awakening for the people of India.
