Cover Photo: Mountain is my second home! - Ronak Sawant

They say home is where the heart is but my heart is free and belongs in the mountains.

The mountain is my second home. Whenever I come to the mountains, I feel like I returned home. I love the mountains. I have a relationship with the mountains. I am lost, in its beauty and simplicity. I am lost, seeing the view from the top of it. The fun of screaming from standing at the top of the mountain is the fun that is very different.

Feels good there!
Far from this noise.
Far from this crowd.
Far from this run.
Far from this delusion.
Far away, but close to my heart.

~~~

पहाड़ मेरा दूसरा घर है।


वे कहते हैं कि घर जहाँ दिल है, लेकिन मेरा दिल स्वतंत्र है और पहाड़ों में है।

पहाड़ मेरा दूसरा घर है। जब भी पहाड़ों पर आता हूँ ऐसे लगता है के मैं घर वापस लौट गया। पहाड़ों से प्यार है मेरा। पहाड़ों से रिश्ता है मेरा। खो जाता हूँ, इसकी सुंदरता और सादगी में। खो जाता हूँ, इसके चोटी के ऊपर से नज़ारा देखकर। पहाड़ के चोटी के ऊपर खड़े रहकर चिल्लाने में जो मज़ा है ना, वह मज़ा बहुत ही अलग है।

अच्छा लगता है वहाँ पर।
इस शोर से दूर,
इस भीड़ से दूर,
इस भागा-दौड़ी से दूर,
इस मायाजाल से दूर,
बहुत दूर, लेकिन मेरे दिल के करीब।

Cover Photo: Thank you, Dance - Ronak Sawant

I am happy and satisfied with what dance has given me in my life so far.
Dance made me the person I never thought I would become one day.
Dance made the human and artist in me alive.
Dance made me befriend my soul.
Dance made me connected to the universe.
Dance helped me deeply understand life, love, and freedom, in general, about myself.
Dance made my life worth living.
Thank you so much, dance, for coming into my life and making it so beautiful. Today I can proudly say to myself and this world that "Maine dance ko jiya hai!" (I lived dance!)

Jab maut mujhe bulayegi na apne paas, toh main khushi se nachte-nachte jaana pasand karunga.
(When death comes and says it's time to leave, I would happily like to go by dancing.)

"Life is a Mountain" - Poem by Ronak Sawant

Life is a mountain we have to climb
Enjoy the journey taking one step at a time
There’s no shortcut; there’s no easy way
But the road to the top is fun and play

Don’t let fear or anything stop you
Just keep going and appreciate the view
Sometimes you will slip, and sometimes you will fall
I know you are so strong that you will get up and stand tall

You’ll meet new people; you’ll make some friends
Some will leave you, and some will stay until the life ends
At times you will be lost and feel completely alone
I know you will find yourself and explore the unknown

High altitude will teach you the great lessons
Your attitude, belief, and confidence are priceless weapons
Crevasse is an obstacle that will make your time difficult
Wear your crampons, get on the ladder, pass and exult

Avalanche may come, and you may lose special someone
That's life, and the show must go on
You’ll have your moments; you’ll have the time of your life
Always be grateful for this gift that you are alive

Love, laugh and learn from your experience
Find your purpose and know your existence
When you reach the summit, don’t be afraid to help others
Be the climber that not only climbs but also creates more climbers

Life is a mountain we have to climb
Enjoy the journey taking one step at a time
The summit is what drives us
But remember, the climb itself is what matters

Cover Photo: Zindagi aur Mai - Ronak Sawant

पता नहीं ज़िंदगी कहाँ ले जा रही है मुझे।
कभी यहाँ,
तो कभी वहाँ।
कभी रंगमंच पर,
तो कभी सड़क पर।
कभी इधर,
तो कभी उधर।
और, कभी किधर भी नहीं।

 ज़िंदगी, चलते रहने दे तेरा ये प्यारा सिलसिला।
बस दुआ करता हूँ के इस सफर में रह जाए कुछ अधूरा।
बस दुआ करता हूँ के कभी रुक जाए ये सफर मेरा तेरा।
बस दुआ करता हूँ के कभी टूट जाए ये अनोखा रिश्ता हमारा।

~~~

Zindagi aur Mai


Pata nahi zindagi kahan le jaa rahi hai mujhe.
Kabhi yahan,
Toh kabhi wahan.
Kabhi rangmanch par,
Toh kabhi sadak par.
Kabhi idhar,
Toh kabhi udhar.
Aur kabhi kidhar bhi nahi.

Ae zindagi, chalte rehne de tera yeh pyaara silsila.
Bas dua karta hoon ke iss safar mein reh na jaye kuch adhura.
Bas dua karta hoon ke kabhi ruk na jaye yeh safar mera tera.
Bas dua karta hoon ke kabhi toot na jaye yeh anokha rishta humara.

Cover Photo: आवारा हूँ, आर्टिस्ट हूँ, आज़ाद हूँ! (Aawara hoon, Artist hoon, Aazaad hoon!) - Ronak Sawant

आवारा हूँ, आर्टिस्ट हूँ, आज़ाद हूँ!
खुद से सीखा है।
खुद को पहचाना है।
इस सुंदर सी दुनिया में मैं,
खुशी का पैगाम लेकर जी रहा हूँ।

आवारा हूँ, आर्टिस्ट हूँ, आज़ाद हूँ!
ना कल की है चिंता,
ना मरने का है डर,
बस यूँ ही चला मैं हँसता, गाता और मुस्कुराता,
ऐसा है मेरा ये प्यारा सफर।

आवारा हूँ, आर्टिस्ट हूँ, आज़ाद हूँ!
जी रहा हूँ।
खुश हूँ।
इतना काफी है।
इतना काफी है।

~~~

"Aawara hoon, Artist hoon, Aazaad hoon!"

- Ronak Sawant

Aawara hoon, Artist hoon, Aazaad hoon!
Khud se seekha hai.
Khud ko pehchana hai.
Iss sundar si duniya mein main,
Khushi ka paigaam lekar jee raha hoon.

Aawara hoon, Artist hoon, Aazaad hoon!
Na kal ki hai chinta,
Na marne ka hai darr,
Bas yunhi chala main hasta, gaata aur muskuraata,
Aisa hai mera yeh pyaara safar.

Aawara hoon, Artist hoon, Aazaad hoon!
Jee raha hoon.
Khush hoon.
Itna kaafi hai.
Itna kaafi hai.
