While the entire country was busy with the Independence Day celebrations, our former Prime Minister was amidst a battle of life and death. ‘Atal Bihari Vajpayee’, who served our nation for a significant period of time, was facing critical health issues and was being treated for various health-related issues.
Since last night, he was put on a life-support system. The entire country and even people from overseas were praying for his health. Alas, he couldn’t fight the fight anymore and left us on Aug 16th, 2018 around 5.05 in the evening.
But, apart from that everyone knows for a fact how strong-willed he is. His poems are the best example of how one can learn to fight and win over anything.
And to pay respect to his poetic creations, here are a few of his best writings that will inspire you no matter how hard life turns out to be-

1. Maut se than gai
Than gai
Maut se than gai.
Jhujhney ka iraada na tha,
Mod par milenge iska waada na tha,
Raasta rok kar wo khadi ho gai,
Yun laga zindagi se badi ho gai
maut ki umar kya hai? Do pal bhi nahi,
Zindagi silsilaa, aaj kal ki nahi
Main jii bhar jiya, main mann se maru,
Laut kar aaunga, kooch se kyun daru?
Tu dabe paon, chori-chipey se naa aa,
Saamne waar kar fir mujhe aajmaa
Maut se bekhabar, zindagi ka safar,
Sham har surmaii, raat bansi ka swar,
Baat aisi nahi ki koi gum hi nahi,
Dard apney-paraaye kuch kam bhi nahi
Pyar itna paraayon se mujhko milaa,
Na apno se baaki hai koi gilaa
har chunauti se do haath maine kiye,
aandhiyo me jalaaye hain bujhtey diye
Aaj jhakjhorta tez tofaan hai,
Nav bhanvaro ki baahon me mehmaan hai
Paar karne ka kayam magar hauslaa,
dekh tevar tofaan ki tevarii tan gai
Maut se than gai
2. Kadam milakar chalna hoga.
Baadhaiyen aati hai aayen
Ghirey pralay ki ghor ghataaien,
Paon ke neechey angaarey,
Sir par barsey yadi jwaalayen,
Nijj haatho me hastey hastey,
Aag lagakar jalna hoga.
Kadam milakar chalna hoga.
Haasya-rudan me, tofaano me,
Agar asankhya balidano me,
Udhyano me, veerano me,
Apmaano me, sammano me,
Unnatt mastak, ubhara seena,
Peedaaon me palnaa hoga.
Kadam milakar chalna hoga.
Ujiyarey me, andhkar me,
Kal kahar me, beech majhdhar me,
Ghor ghrinaa me, poot pyar me,
Shanikk jeet me, deergh haar me,
Jeevan ke shatt shatt aakarshak,
Armano ko dhalnaa hoga.
Kadam milakar chalna hoga.
Sammukh faila agar dhyay path,
Pragati chirantan kaisa itii ab,
Sushmitt harshit kaisa shrm shalth,
Asafal, safal samaan manorath,
Sab kuch deekar kuch na maangtey,
Paavas ban kar dhalnaa hoga.
Kadam milakar chalna hoga.
Kuch kaanto se sajjit jeevan,
Prakhar pyar se vanchit yauvann,
Neeravtaa se mukhrit madhuban,
Parhit arpit apnaa tan-mann,
Jeevan ko shatt-shatt aahuti me,
Jalna hoga, galnaa hoga.
Kadam milakar chalna hoga.
3. Doo anubhutiiyan
Pehli anubhutii
Benaqab chehrey hain, daag bade gehrey hai
Toot taa tilism aaj sach se bhay khata hu
Geet nahi gata hu
Lagi hai aisi nazar bikhra sheeshey sa shehar
Apno ke meley me meet nahi paat hu
Geet nahi gaata hu
Peeth me churii sa chaand, raahu gaya rekha faand
Mukti ke shanoo me bar-bar bandh jata hu
Geet nahi gata hu
– Dusri anubhutii
Geet naya gata hu
Tootey hue taaro se footey baasanti swar
Patthar ki chaati me ugg aya nav ankur
Jharey sab peeley paat koyal ki kuhukk raat
Prachi ke anuriim ki rekh dekh pata hu
Geet naya gata hu
Tootey hue sapno ki kon suney sisski
Antarr ki cheer vyatha palko par thitki
Haar nahi maanunga, raar nahi thaanunga
Kaal k kapaal pe likhta mitaataa hu
Geet naya gata hu
4. Doodh me daraad pad gai
Khoon kyu safed ho gaya?
Bhed me abhed ho gaya.
Bantt gaye shaheed, geet kat gaye,
Kaleje me katar dadd gai.
Doodh me daraar pad gai.
Kheto me baaroodi gandh
Toot gaye Nanak ke chandd
Satluj sehem uthi, vyathitt si bistattaa hai.
Vasant se bahaar jhadd gai
Doodh me daraar pad gai.
Apni hi chaya se baair,
Gale lagne lage hain gaair,
Khudkushii ka rasta, tumhe vatan ka vaasta.
Baat banaye, bigad gai.
Doodh me daraar pad gai.
5. Ek baras beet gaya
Jhulassta jeth maas
Sharad chandni udaas
Sisski bhartey saawan ka
Antarghat reet gaya
Ek baras beet gaya
Seenkchon me simtaa jag
Kintuu vikal prann vihag
Dharti se ambar tak
Goonj mukti geet gaya
Ek baras beet gaya
Path nihaartey nayan
Ginntey din pal chinn
Laut kabhi ayega
Mann ka jo meet gya
Ek baras beet gaya
