लौन कस्तो रुन्चे फोटु टाँस्देछन् पुन्टेजीले मेरो ! But, thanks. As a matter of fact, it was a sublime moment for me personally. First for a technical reason. This was the first time in my life I ever attempted to recite a ghazal in melody ('तरन्नुम के साथ' भन्छन् नि लय हालेर गाउने, हो त्यही ) । Secondly, the ghazal was my personal story. Let's say my own ROAD MAP to the destination I beleive in. And my explanation as to why I am on that road, my awareness of the difficulties and why I believe I can overcome them and exactly how I have prepared myself for that and so on. So, at that moment, I was not reciting a poem but pouring my heart out. They were my cries, literally. My closed eyes were wet when I was reciting the shers. And it was an intensely satisfying moment. By the way, that particular ghazal is the one I first posted in Sajha when some well wisher Sajhaite inquired about me when I was absent from Sajha for a while some time ago. आँधीसंग मीत लगाएँ, आगो मन पराएँ . . . Dada, Guna, Newuserji, thank you for stopping by. I will certainly share more stories and interesting (!) pictures when I have more free time.
