The cell phone Gundodhara asura
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
(It seems during Meenakshi Kalyanam Lord Shiva created an Asura called Gundodhara who ate
everything that he saw .A hindi poet
feels that cell phone has ate
everything in the world .I have just translated in my own way. Since I
got it in Whatsapp, I do not know , who wrote it. I wish to thank that unknown author.The Hindi text is given
ay the end)
This mobile did not become sturdy just like that
He had gobbled up a lot
and he has drunk a lot
He ate the wrist
watches,
He ate the torch
lights,
He ate the
letters that we used to post,
He ate all the
books that we used to read.
He ate the Radio,
He ate the Tape
recorder,
He ate the Camera,
He ate the
calculato.r
He ate the
friendship between neighbours
He ate the meeting
with each other,
He ate our time,
He ate our happy relief.
He ate our money ,
He ate our
relationship
He ate our habit of memorising ,
He ate our health.
That fellow has become smart only after eating all this,
And after he
started influenzing the
changing world ,
Human beings became mad
and he became smart.
AS long as phone was
tied by a wire ,
Human beings
were independent,
But once
phones became independent,
Human beings are being tied by
that phone
The relationships
nowadays are tied to the fingers,
Where is the
time to get tied
by speech,
Every one is
busy in touch ,
But no body seems to be in touch
ये मोबाइल यूँ ही
हट्टा कट्टा नहीं
बना...
बहुत कुछ
खाया - पीया है
इसने
ये हाथ की
घड़ी खा गया,
ये टॉर्च - लाईट खा
गया,
ये चिट्ठी पत्रियाँ खा
गया,
ये किताब खा गया।
ये रेडियो खा गया
ये टेप रिकॉर्डर खा
गया
ये कैमरा खा गया
ये कैल्क्युलेटर खा गया।
ये पड़ोस की दोस्ती
खा गया,
ये मेल
- मिलाप खा गया,
ये हमारा वक्त खा
गया,
ये हमारा सुकून खा
गया।
ये पैसे खा
गया,
ये रिश्ते खा गया,
ये यादास्त खा गया,
ये तंदुरूस्ती खा गया।
कमबख्त इतना कुछ
खाकर ही स्मार्ट
बना,
बदलती दुनिया का ऐसा
असर होने लगा,
आदमी पागल और
फोन स्मार्ट होने
लगा।
जब तक फोन
वायर से बंधा
था,
इंसान आजाद था।
जब से फोन
आजाद हुआ है,
इंसान फोन से
बंध गया है।
ऊँगलिया
ही निभा रही
रिश्ते आजकल,
जुबान से निभाने
का वक्त कहाँ
है?
सब टच में
बिजी है,
पर टच में
कोई नहीं है।
