Maru Kavan.....

Kurbaan Umar na Ketlaye Yugo e pad upar,
je Pad ma tamari haami, maru jeevan bani gayu.

(That one moment of my life was worth ages of lives,
The moment in which your affirmation became my life)

Chhe Ketlaye nava have sapna aa rah par,
Je Rah par Maro saath, Taru Chayan bani gayu.

(There are many dreams on that path,
The path where my companionship became your choice.)

Gulab ane Mogra ne pan aavi irshya eni,
Ke Bas Ek Phool thi maru chaman bani gayu.

(Roses and Jasmine also got jealous of the one,
The only one Flower that became my garden)

Sukh Hoi ke Dukh, have jeevan bhar no saath chhe,
Ichha Ghadpan na saath ni, Maru Yovan Bani gayu.

(We will be together whether it be happiness or sorrows,
The wish of you being a companion of mine for the old age, became my Youth.)

Kehvani darek vaat ne, Sabdo no chhe abhav,
Mari Chahat, Mara Aansoon, Maru Kavan Bani gayu.

(Not all that i want to say could be expressed in words,
My love, my tears have become my poetry. )

Mujh Thi Nahi...(Not to Me) .... Gujarati

Nani evi be papano ne, Bhedi na shakya suraj tana tej,
Ke Jor Enu Sthan thi chhe, kad thi nahi.

(The bright Sun could not pierce the two eyelashes,
As its' strength lied in place and not in size)

Upar Javani aa hod ma, e na samajyo nani evi vaat,
Ke pooja Karm thi thai chhe, pad thi nahi.

(In the race to go up in life, he never understood such a small thing,
That one is praised for his deeds and not the post. )

Jagat no itihaas sikhavi gayo ke haiya hoi ke yudhh,
Khumari thi j jitay chhe, mad thi nahi.

(History of the world has taught whether it be hearts or wars,
Could only won only by courage and not by pride)


Mehfil thi bhagvu kai upay nathi, ke lagni dil ni,
Bijao thi chupavay chhe, khud thi nahi.

(Running away from celebrations is no solution, as the feelings of heart
Could be kept hidden from others not from One's own self)

Maut sudhi tarasta rahya sambhadva emni e vaat,
Je vaat mari kabar par kahi, mujh thi nahi.

(I longed to hear those words from her till the moment i died,
Words that she told on my grave but never to me)
