guroor ghalib mein, dard daag mein mahaanta mir mein, zarf zauq mein

sailaab sahir mein, inquilaab iqbaal mein aatish ahmed mein, fanna faiz mein

chanchalta chakbast mein, rooh rumi mein paardarshita pant mein, gehraai gibran mein

raudrataa ramdhari mein, aasha amrita mein madhurta mahadevi mein, pran parveen mein

mayoosi majrooh mein, bekasi bareilvi mein jaan jaun mein, jahaan jaanisar mein

'abraa aazmi mein, kaif khayyam mein kashish gulzaar mein, nagme neeraj mein

पर्वत पर, शायद, वृक्ष न कोई शेष बचा, 

धरती पर, शायद, शेष बची है नहीं घास; 

उड़ गया भाप बनकर सरिताओं का पानी, 

बाकी न सितारे बचे चाँद के आस-पास । 

 क्या कहा कि मैं घनघोर निराशावादी हूँ? 

तब तुम्हीं टटोलो हृदय देश का, 

और कहो, लोगों के दिल में कहीं अश्रु क्या बाकी है? 

Today is the Jayanti of Rashtrakavi Ramdhari Singh Dinkar. A poet whose words had the power of a thunderclap. 🇮🇳

And seeing Colonel Rajyavardhan Rathore — an Olympic medalist, soldier, politician, and a Padma Bhushan awardee for LITERATURE — pay his respects hits different.

It feels like a passing of the torch.

From one legend who wrote with the heart of a warrior… To a modern-day warrior who writes with the power of a poet.
