चोट पर्दा आँखा हैन, मन् नि रुन्छ बुझ्यौ होला-गजल (Gajhal)

चोट पर्दा आँखा हैन, मन् नि रुन्छ बुझ्यौ होला
मनमा कुरा गुम्साइ बस्नु, कस्तो हुन्छ बुझ्यौ होला

सम्झना र यथार्थका, साथी दुबै एक नहुँदा
आँशुले नै मनका सारा, याद धुन्छ बुझ्यौ होला

भित्र पिरिम भएपनि, मुखमा ल्याउन सँधै गाह्रो
अभिमानले कसो गरी, माया थुन्छ बुझ्यौ होला

पीर व्यथा आफ्ना सबै, सुनिदिने कोइ न हुँदा
बचन भन्दा मौनताले, चस्चस् छुन्छ बुझ्यौ होला

सारा संसार निदरीले स्वप्न लोकमा हराउँदा
आँखा मिच्दै तिम्रा कुरा, कस्ले सुन्छ ? बुझ्यौ होला

मन चोर्ने निद्रा हर्ने, बाँच्ने एउटा आधार थप्ने
रगतको भन्दा गाढा, नाता कुन् छ ? बुझ्यौ होला

(Essence of the poem)

To keep things in heart

and not being able to speak out

hurts as hell.

Then, not just the eye

but the hearts too cry

When the person that visits your dreams

 and the one you wake up with

are not the same:

the fate is to blame;

and tears wash away the pain

every day you gain

It's hard to speak up

 what's in your heart;

ego comes in a way

and takes the fear away

because confessions  are for weak:

and we are the strong

When there is no one

to hear your cry,

silence become more pain you dared

than the harsh words you feared

When the whole world goes to sleep,

 there is someone

listening to you

rubbing his/her eyes. 

The one that takes your heart

 and sleep away

that gives you motive

for your life

 that bond my friend

is greater than

the bond of blood
