Jahaan khaamosh rehnaa hai vahaan munh khol jaatay hain
Katay jab sheesh sainik ka to ham khaamosh rehtay hain
Katay ik scene picture kaa to saaray bol jaatay hain
Nayi naslon kay ye bachay zamaanay bhar kee suntay hain
Magar maan baap kuchh bolen to bachay bol jaatay hain
Bahut oonchi dukaanon mein kataatay jaib sab apni
Magar mazdoor maangega to sikkay bol jaatay hain
Agar makhmal karay galtee to koyi kuchh nahin kehtaa
Phatee chaadar kee galtee ho to saaray bol jaatay hain
Havaaon kee tabaahi ko sabhi chup chaap sehtay hain
Chiraagon say huyi galtee to saaray bol jaatay hain
Banaatay phirtay hain rishtay zamaanay bhar say aqsar ham
Magar ghar mein zaroorat ho to rishtay bol jaatay hain
Jahaan khaamosh rehnaa hai vahaan munh khol jaatay hain

Translation
Where to speak - and where not to speak
Where there should be silence, the mouth is opened.
When the head of a soldier is cut, we remain silent
When a scene of a picture is cut, everyone starts shouting.
These children of new breeds listen to the whole world
But if the parents say something, they start shouting back.
We let our pockets lose in high standard fancy shops
But if a worker, maid, or servant asks, we start counting the coins.
No one says anything if velvet (rich & influential - wearing expensive clothes) makes a mistake
If it is the fault of a torn sheet (poor) - everyone shouts and complains.
Everyone silently bears the destruction of the winds.
If the mistake is made by the lamps, everyone shouts and complains.
We often try to make relationships with everyone we meet.
But if there is a need in the home, relationships are forgotten.
Where to speak and where not to speak
Where there should be silence, the mouth is opened
( Rajan Sachdeva )

ReplyDeleteIt takes less than two years after we are born to learn to speak.
ReplyDeleteBut sometimes a lifetime is too short to learn when not to speak.
Wow, what a message full of reality to imbibe and have a comfortable life. Thanks very much Jì.��
