Storyweaver – Monthly exploration 2019

Posted on January 29, 2019 by Deepthi

One of the habits I am trying to follow in this 2019 is to write and contribute a story every month based on my experiences, lessons of that particular month.

Storyweaver is a platform that provides easy-to-use tools to create, adapt, and translate new stories for children.

So here it is, the January one in telugu. https://storyweaver.org.in/stories/56773-chethale-maatladali-kothalu-kaadu

Today I hear..

Ruke Ruke se kadam..Ruke baar baar chale..

Genre : Ghazal

Singer : Lata Mangeshkar

Ruke Ruke se kadam ruk ke baar baar chale

Qarar leke tere dar se bekarar chale

Ruke Ruke se kadam ruk ke baar baar chale
Ruke Ruke se kadam

Subah na aayi kai baar neend se jaage

Ki ek raat ki ye zindagi guzaar chale

Ki ek raat ki ye zindagi guzaar chale
Ruke Ruke se kadam

Uthaye phir dekhe ehsaan dil ka seene par

Le tere kadamon mein kazr bhi utaar chale

Le tere kadamon mein kazr bhi utaar chale
Karar leke tere dar se bekarar chale

Ruke Ruke se kadam ruk ke baar baar chale
Ruke Ruke se kadam

Listened to this song/ghazal for the first time in Indian Idol auditions. Hope concluding into detachment is what attracted me to find and listen to it fully. I feel lyrics always flourish in sad emotion than any other. So this is the new and interesting bit of Hindi poetry I found this week about half-hearted delusions in life.

You can find the song link below –

Ruke Ruke se kadam…

English translation of the lyrics and back story are here –

A story of faltered footsteps.
