सिमसिम by Geet Chaturvedi
"सराहनीय !

पिछली कईं शाम इस किताब के चंद पन्नों के साथ गुज़ारी,और प्रतिदिन चेहरे को भीनी भीनी मुस्कान और मन को सुकून मिला।
सच बताऊँ तो मैं चाहता ही नहीं था कि ये कहानी कभी ख़त्म भी हो।

“समंदर एक ऐसा प्रेमी है, जो सबसे ज़्यादा क्षमा से भरा हुआ है. वह हर पल ख़ुद से दूर जाने वाली लहरों को क्षमा करता है और वापस अपने में शामिल कर लेता है. जाने देना भी प्रेम है. लौटे हुए को शामिल करना भी प्रेम है.”
Geet Chaturvedi, Adhoori Cheezon Ka Devta

“दुनिया बेसुरे संगीत से सम्मोहित है
और तुम मेरी छुअन से बुना गया मौन.”
Geet Chaturvedi, Khushiyon Ke Guptchar

“What I write
is water dripping from a child’s cupped hands.

- Geet Chaturvedi
Translated by Anita Gopalan”
Geet Chaturvedi, The Memory of Now

“The sea is a lover, most forgiving. Every moment he forgives the waves receding from him and includes them again into him. Love is to let go. Love is also to accept the ones who have returned.

Geet Chaturvedi
Translated by Anita Gopalan”
Geet Chaturvedi, The Memory of Now

“You are in love with green,
You translate every scene into green

I am in love with you,
I translate every scene into you

Your blindness is the colour green,
My blindness is coloured you.

- Geet Chaturvedi,
Translated by Anita Gopalan”
Geet Chaturvedi, The Memory of Now

“The world was two, like your breasts
The world was also three, like your eyes
The world was countless, like your thoughts

I was alone, like the tang of your tear
I was alone, like the lone mole on your forehead
I remained alone
Despite living in a world that was countless.

- Geet Chaturvedi,
Translated by Anita Gopalan”
Geet Chaturvedi, The Memory of Now

“I threw my poems
in the ocean
the paper rotted
but poems swim
along with little fishes on the ocean floor.

Translated by Anita Gopalan”
