If all this is illusion- Then what is Truth? To Satya kya hai?

Main jo kucch dekhtaa hoon
Suntaa hoon - Chhootaa hoon
Mehsoos kartaa hoon 

Ye sub agar 'Mithyaa' hai 
To Satya kya hai?

Teri aankhen -Teray abroo
Teray aariz - Teray lub
Teri muskaan - Teri lachak

Ye sub agar 'Mithyaa' hai 
To phir Satya kya hai ?

Jis din man us Satya ko paa lega 
To sadiyon ka sanjoyaa 
ye sapnaa toot jayega 
Moh chhoot jayega 
Bandhan toot jayega 

Aur ......
Man shaant, nishchal, nish-kratya ho jayega 
Satya ko paa kar - Satya me kho jayega 
Antatah Satya hi ho jayega           
                          By: Doctor Jagdish Sachdeva
                                 (Michigan, USA)

                    Translation
All that I see -  
Whatever I hear, touch, and feel - 
        if all this is an illusion 
        what is the Reality then?

Your eyes, your eyebrows, 
your cheeks, your lips, 
your smile, your tenderness -
         If all this is an illusion
         then what is the Truth?

The day the mind will find that ultimate Truth -
this dream -
that has been cherished for centuries, 
will be shattered, 
the attachment will be released, 
and the bond will be broken.

You will become peaceful 
calm, and stable 
will merge in the truth - 
After discovering the truth, 
you will eventually become the truth itself.

Abroo                 Eyebrows
Aariz                  Cheeks
Lub                     Lips
Shaant                Peaceful
Nishchal             Still, Stable
Nish-Kratya      Inactive, Idle, Dormant, inert 
Antatah              Finally, eventually
