Khooni Hastakshar (Dedicated to Shubash Chandra Bose)



वह ख़ून कहो किस मतलब का
जिसमें उबाल का नाम नहीं!
वह ख़ून कहो किस मतलब का
आ सके देश के काम नहीं!

वह ख़ून कहो किस मतलब का
जिसमें जीवन, न रवानी है!
जो परवश में होकर बहता है,
वह ख़ून नहीं है, पानी है!

उस दिन लोगों ने सही सही
खूँ की कीमत पहचानी थी.
जिस दिन सुभाष ने बर्मा में
मांगी उनसे कुर्बानी थी.

बोले, "स्वतंत्रता की खातिर,
बलिदान तुम्हें करना होगा.
तुम बहुत जी चुके हो जग में,
लेकिन आगे मरना होगा.

Bole swatantrata ki khatir
Balidaan tumhe karna hoga
Tum bahut ji chuke ho jag mein
Lekin aage marna hoga

He said, "For your freedom,
you'll have to sacrifice.
You've lived enough in the world;
now death is freedom's price.

आज़ादी के चरणों में जो
जयमाल चढाई जाएगी,
वह सुनो, तुम्हारे शीशों के
फूलों से गूंथी जाएगी.

आज़ादी का संग्राम कहीं
पैसे पर खेला जाता है?
यह शीश कटाने का सौदा
नंगे सर झेला जाता है.

आज़ादी का इतिहास कहीं
काली स्याही लिख पाती है?
इसके लिखने के लिए
खून की नदी बहाई जाती है."

यूँ कहते कहते वक्ता की
आँखों में खून उतर आया.
मुख रक्त वर्ण हो गया
दमक उठी उनकी रक्तिम काया!

आजानु बाहु ऊंची करके,
वे बोले, "रक्त मुझे देना.
इसके बदले में भारत की
आज़ादी तुम मुझसे लेना."

हो गई सभा में उथल पुथल,
सीने में दिल न समाते थे.
स्वर इंकलाब के नारों के
कोसों तक झाए जाते थे.

"हम देंगे देंगे ख़ून"
शब्द बस यही सुनाई देते थे.
रण में जाने को युवक खड़े
तैयार दिखाई देते थे.

बोले सुभाष, "इस तरह नहीं
बातों से मतलब सरता है.
लो, यह कागज़ है, कौन यहाँ
आकर हस्ताक्षर करता है?

इसको भरनेवाले जन को
सर्वस्व-समर्पण करना है.
अपना तन-मन-धन-जन-जीवन
माता को अर्पण करना है.

पर यह साधारण पत्र नहीं,
आज़ादी का परवाना है.
इस पर तुमको अपने तन का
कुछ उज्ज्वल रक्त गिराना है!

वह आगे आए जिसके तन में
खून भारतीय बहता हो!
वह आगे आए जो अपने को
हिन्दुस्तानी कहता हो!

वह आगे आए, जो इस पर
खूनी हस्ताक्षर देता हो!
मैं कफन बढाता हूँ, आए
जो इसको हँसकर लेता हो!"

सारी जनता हुंकार उठी -
हम आते हैं, हम आते हैं!
माता के चरणों में यह लो,
हम अपना रक्त चढाते हैं!

साहस से बढे युवक उस दिन,
देखा, बढ़ते ही आते थे!
चाकू-छुरी कटारियों से,
अपना रक्त गिराते थे!

फिर उसी रक्त की स्याही में,
वे अपनी कलम डुबोते थे!
आज़ादी के परवाने पर
हस्ताक्षर करते जाते थे!

उस दिन तारों ने देखा था
हिन्दुस्तानी विश्वास नया.
जब लिखा था रणवीरों ने
खूँ से अपना इतिहास नया.

कवि: गोपाल प्रसाद व्यास

English Translation

Of what good is the blood
that can't come to a boil?
Of what good is the blood
that can't protect its soil?

Of what good is the blood
that's not alive with ardor?
The blood that flows not free
it's not blood, it's water!

The day blood got appreciated,
when people realized its worth
was in Burma when Subhash asked
them to sacrifice for their earth.

He said, "For your freedom,
you'll have to sacrifice.
You've lived enough in the world;
now death is freedom's price.

In the feet of freedom,
the gardland that is spread,
Listen! It will be woven
with your severed heads.

The battle for independence
isn't won on money, be sure.
Commitment to supreme sacrifice
is on barenecks endured.

The history of freedom struggle,
in black ink isn't written or read.
For its sake, bravehearts have
let loose floods of blood red."

In so saying the speaker's
eyes had become blood shot,
face had acquired blood's hue
blood-red body glowed, so hot.

He raised his hands, declared,
"Give me your blood, come.
And in fair exchange,
I will give you freedom."

There was a tumult in the crowd,
hearts couldn't contain the joy.
Rallying cries traveled miles,
reaching the hoi polloi.

"We are, we are ready to bleed"
Only these words could be heard.
To go into the battlefield,
men stood ready, undeterred.

Subhash dared, "Not like this!
For they say talk is cheap.
Seal your commitment now
by signing on this sheet.

The person signing up here
has to dedicate his all -
possessions, relations, body, soul,
whole life to this clarion call.

But this is no ordinary letter;
It's a declaration of independence.
Drop some virile blood of your body
on it, I give you the chance.

Step forward and be counted
if Indian blood's in your veins.
Step forward and be counted
if you call yourself Indians.

Step forward and be counted
by signing here in blood.
I offer a shroud, come,
to go with a smile into the mud."

Everyone shouted back,
here we come, here we come.
In the cause of the motherland,
we'll give our blood some.

The youth advanced with courage,
and they kept climbing the stairs.
With blades, knives, and steel,
they'd drop some blood of theirs.

Then in the ink of that blood,
they'd dip the nibs of their pen
and make their signatures on
the declaration of independence.

saw an Indian faith all new,
when with their blood, the braves
wrote India's history anew

One of the Song of INA

March, March on forward
______________________

With pleasure-songs onward.
Life belongs to the land.
You better die than Backward
Indian tigers, spring ahead
Save thy nation than thy head.
Striking terror among enemies
To thee is feather-bed.
Thy valor is again free
Thy Almighty graces thee.
Thy Enemy at the front
Sinks down on his knee.
"To Delhi" be thy Battle Cry,
hoisting thy standard high.
Fluttering atop the Lalquila
Let it fly, let it fly.

Leaflet thrown by Bhagat Singh in Central Assembly Hall, New Delhi (1929)


















Leaflet Starts Now :

Leaflet thrown in the Central Assembly Hall, New Delhi at the time of the throwing voice bombs :

On the 8th April, 1929, the Viceroy's proclamation, enacting the two Bills, was to be made, despite the fact that the majority of members were opposed to it, and had rather rejected in earlier. 
The Hindustan Socialist Republican Army 

(Notice)
"It takes a loud voice to make the deaf hear, with these immortal words uttered on a similar occasion by Valiant, a French anarchist martyr, do we strongly justify this action of ours."

"Without repeating the humiliating history of the past ten years of the working of the reforms (Montague-Chelmsford Reforms) and without mentioning the insults hurled at the Indian nation through this House-the so-called Indian Parliament-we want to point out that, while the people expecting some more crumbs of reforms from the Simon Commission, and are ever quarrelling over the distribution of the expected bones, the Government is thrusting upon us new repressive measures like the Public Safety and the Trade Disputes Bill, while reserving the Press Sedition Bill for the next session. The indiscriminate arrests of labour leaders working in the open field clearly indicate whither the wind blows." 

"In these extremely provocative circumstances, the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association, in all seriousness, realizing their full responsibility, had decided and ordered its army to do this particular action, so that a stop be put to this humiliating farce and to let the alien bureaucratic exploiters do what they wish, but they must be made to come before the public eve in their naked form."

"Let the representatives of the people return to their constituencies and prepare the masses for the coming revolution, and let the Government know that while protesting against the Public Safety and Trade Disputes Bills and the callous murder of Lala Lajpat Rai, on behalf of the helpless Indian masses, we want to emphasize the lesson often repeated by history, that it is easy to kill individuals but you connot kill the ideas Great empires crumbled while the ideas survived. Bourbons and Czars fell. While the revaluation marched ahead triumphantly." 

"We are sorry to admit that we who attach so great a sanctity to human life, who dream of a glorious future, when man will be enjoying perfect peace and full liberty, have been forced to shed human blood. But the sacrifice of individuals at the altar of the 'Great Revolution' that will bring freedom to all, rendering the exploitation of man by man impossible, is inevitable." 
"Long Live the Revolution."15
