Last letter written by Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh to his brother.
Bhagat Singh, apart from being fierce nationalist, was great writer in his limited span of life.
He was fluent in English, Hindi, Urdu and Punjabi as far as writing is concerned. His quotes, poems and letters he wrote to different people during different stages of life are well researched.
His letters in particular, are not only beautiful piece of writing but also testimony of brilliant, mature and philosophical man he was in such young age!
This is his hand-written letter from jail in urdu to his younger brother Kultar Singh on March 3, 1931.
These are words of young man aged just 23 who knew his life was truncated short..
Mortals like us would have crumbled under fear of inevitable death that was silently approaching but then he was no ordinary young man like us, he had purposefully chosen his dark fate when he could have chosen comfort of living long luxurious life.
There was clear thought process behind his each action and thankfully for us, he explained most of them through his jail diary and various letters.. Respect for him!
Below is rough translation of his last letter to his brother..
अज़ीज़ कुलतार ! आज तुम्हारी आँखों में आंसू देख कर बहुत रंज हुआ, आज
तुम्हारी बात में बहुत दर्द था, बरखुरदार हिम्मत से तालीम हासिल करते जाना
और सेहत का खयाल रखना। हौसला रखना।
उन्हें यह फिकर है हर दम नया तर्ज़-ए-जफ़ा देखें
हमें यह शक देखें जुल्म की इन्तेहाँ क्या है।
देहर से क्यों खफा रहें मौत का क्यों गिला करें
हमारा जहां सही आओ मुक़ाबला करें।
कोई दम का मेहमान हूँ
एहले महफ़िल चराग़े शहर हूँ बुझा चलता हूँ।
मेरे हवा में रहेगी ख्याल की बिजली
यह मुश्ते ख़ाक है फनी नहीं है।
अच्छा रुक्सती
खुश रहो एहले वतन हम तो सफ़र करते हैं
हौसले से रहना
नमस्ते
तुम्हारा भाई भगत सिंह
