This poem is inspired by ArshiHamesha's post on the dupatta called the Journey of dupatta.

Journey of Duppatta

Special thanks to aarwen for bringing out the topic because of which ArshiHamesha made this post.

ArshiHamesha has just celebrated her birthday and I dedicate this poem to her on the occasion.

Faiqa, this is for you 🤗 . Wanted to post this on your birthday, but didn't want to hurry and mess it up. So, just a little bit late. 😳

Dupatta

Sarsar karta hawa mein jaise mast magan ud jaaye

Piya ko dekh, sudh budh khoye, man gagan choo jaaye

Baar baar ye saraahe unko, aur kareeb le jaaye

Ek hi jhalak mein pehchane unko, albela, matwala dupatta

Jaate huye ko rokne ke liye, dhoondhe kayee bahaane

Kabhi file, kabhi ghadi ya aur koyi kadi, jis se bhi ho jakad jaaye

Gaadi jaise dost ho iska, baar baar isee se ulajh jaaye

Door na jaana piya se, kehta sharaarti, natkhat dupatta

Piya ke haath se sar par odhli, apna haq jataaye

Yehi hai jeevan sangini kehte, piya ke paas ud jaaye

Kabhi parda, kabhi saadi bankar piya ko yaad dilaye

Anchaahe vivaah mein bhi naache, sayana, prasanna dupatta

Prem ke gulaab khilne lagey, mausam rangbirangi ho jaaye

Na samshay, na sankoch, na koyi rok, haq se haath mein jaaye

Alhad premiyon ko paas laane ka saadhan ye ban jaaye

Sharm se jhuki palkon ko dekh mand mand muskaaye dupatta

Kavach yehi, raksha yehi, sammaan ka hai chinha yehi

Do premiyon ke beech mein judey, prem ka hai bandhan yehi

Apni sangini ke suraksha ka ban jaata hai vachan yehi

Iss prem kahani ka hai ek eham kirdaar ye dupatta

Translation:

Swaying about, swooning, it flies in the air

Watching the beloved, losing senses, the heart touches the sky

Again and again, caresses him, takes one more close

Recognising him in one sight, innocent, drowsy dupatta

To stop someone from going, searches for many excuses

Sometimes file, sometimes watch or some other link, to whichever it can catch on

The car as if, is its friend, gets entangled to it again and again

Don't go away from your beloved, says the prankful, naughty dupatta

From the hands of the beloved, adorned the head with it, displaying its right

She is your life partner, saying so flies away to the beloved

Sometimes as curtain, sometimes as saree, it reminds the beloved

Dances in the unwanted wedding too, is the wise, satisfied dupatta

The roses of love are blooming, the aura becomes colourful

No doubts, no hesitation, nor any halt, with right it goes into the hand

To bring the young lovers close, it becomes the means

Watching the bashful eyelids go downwards, the dupatta gives out a mild smile

It's the shield, the protection, the symbol of respect

It is the bonding of love connecting two lovers

It becomes the promise for protection of his partner

An essential character of this love story is this dupatta

Wow Durga I can't believe what you and Faiqa managed to do with just a dupatta.. Am sure she will love her bday gift. Way to go my talented friend 👏

I am having a tough time picking my favourite lines.. So picking many 😊

Ek hi jhalak mein pehchane unko, albela, matwala dupatta

Kabhi file, kabhi ghadi ya aur koyi kadi, jis se bhi ho jakad jaaye

Alhad premiyon ko paas laane ka saadhan ye ban jaaye

Iss prem kahani ka hai ek eham kirdaar ye dupatta

FANTASTIC POEM. 👏 👏 👏

Love it's banner. You capture almost every memorable dupatta scene where Arnav was bewitched. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

My most favorite line in the poem is "It becomes the promise for protection of his partner "

The last lines told the whole journey of dupatta and it's importance in their lives.

Thank you for loving it so much Javeria. The last few lines are inspired from Faiqa's dupatta post. The dupattta has played a key role throughout the story trying to bind them all the time. Towards the end it does become a mark of protection.

Magnificent poem Durgey! How beautifully you have written in verse what Faiqu expressed so splendidly in the Journey of Dupatta! Two great minds at work makes a spectacular post! ⭐️ 👏 ⭐️ 👏 🤗

Loved what you said about dupatta being an eham kirdar/ important character of this lovestory!! The following dupatta scene is my all time favourite. I had also used it in a sense in The Broken Bed if you remember.

In her post I was so touched by what Faiqu said...Khushi got married wearing the same gold, pink and green dupatta combination that she had worn to Sheeshmahal, the first time she met ASR!
