Setu, January 2019 Special
Poetry: Voices Within: Guest Editor’s Note
Gopal Lahiri: Guest Editor with 48 English poets from India
It’s always a challenging task to identify the different voices in a poem. The poetic voices are always rooted in some characteristic elements which brings an edgy energy. Different voices in poetry can also be like instruments in an orchestra, adding coatings of sound and tone.
For this, I am extending my sincere gratitude to Dr. Sunil Sharma, the editor of the English Section of Setu, the bilingual literary journal, published from Pittsburgh, USA, for giving me the opportunity to guest edit the special poetry section titled ‘Voices Within’ where the best poems of the established as well as young Indian Poets writing in English are included.
Robert Frost once said ‘Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words’. It’s in fact none of a poem’s effects function in isolation. But it’s also true that the total of all the separate parts can in no way add up to the functioning whole. But it’s the act of analysis that may be revealing
It’s quite natural that even a poet is also speaking in different voices. In this collection titled ‘Voices Within’, some poems are strikingly inward, some makes hidden regions visible, some traces the sound wave paths within where the self dissolves into many voices. Some poems are meditative, humane and moving.
The unsentimental language and the arrangement of words and phrases, the breadth of form and content, the range of imagery and craft- all roll into a perfect poem. Poetry is all about understanding- not everyone reads a poem the same way, and that is the prettiness and truth of it all.
There are no themes in particular for this endeavor but emphasis is given on strong imagery, innovative style and syntax. Selecting poems amongst many isn’t an easy task and long debates ensue silently in your mind - on which poems more than the others. Sometimes there is disappointment when one of your fellow poets doesn’t make the cut.
It’s really heartening to note that the response for this initiative by ‘Setu’ is overwhelming. I am indebted to all the poets for sending their poems written to the best of their capabilities. But not all the poems are in tune with the poetic elements which I am looking for. Unfortunately, I do not feel that all the submissions for ‘Voices Within’ are suitable for publication but do however urge the poets to forward those poems onto other publications in order that as many as possible are able to read. Some of the Bios are edited to make them brief.
A compilation of this size is often said to contain something for everybody and I am sure most of these poems will be endearing to the readers. Admittedly, in this one, every reader is sure to find something to take away. ‘Voices Within’ holds enough evidence to support that claim.

Shankardas Kesarilal (30 August 1923 – 14 December 1966), popularly known by his pen name Shailendra, was a popular Indian Hindi lyricist. Noted for his association with the filmmaker Raj Kapoor and the composers Shankar-Jaikishan, he wrote lyrics for several successful Hindi film songs in the 1950s and the 1960s.Shailendra was born in Rawalpindi, and brought up in Mathura. The native place of his ancestors is located in the Akhtiyarpur, Ara district of Bihar.
He came in contact with Indra Bahadur Khare at the Kishori Raman School. Both started composing poems, sitting on the rock located on the bank of a pond in between railway 27 quarters and railway line near to Mathura station. Afterwards Shailendra moved to Bombay for films and Indra Bahadur Khare got fame in Raashtreey Kavita.
Shailendra started his career as an apprentice with Indian Railways in Matunga workshop, Mumbai (then Bombay) in 1947. He started writing poetry during these days.
The filmmaker Raj Kapoor noticed Shailendra, when the latter was reading out his poem Jalta hai Punjab at a mushaira (poetic symposium).[4] Kapoor offered to buy the poem Jalta Hai Punjab written by Shailendra and for his movie Aag (1948). Shailendra, a member of the left wing IPTA, was wary of mainstream Indian cinema and refused. However, after his wife became pregnant, Shailendra himself approached Raj Kapoor in need of money. At this time, Raj Kapoor was filming Barsaat (1949), and two of the film songs had not yet been written. For ₹ 500, Shailendra wrote these two songs: Patli kamar hai and Barsaat mein. The music for Barsaat was composed by Shankar-Jaikishan. 
The team of Raj Kapoor, Shailendra and Shankar-Jaikishan went on to produce many other hit songs. The song "Awara Hoon" from the 1951 film Awaara, written by Shailendra, became the most appreciated Hindustani film song outside India at the time.
In the days when composers would recommend lyricists to producers, Shankar-Jaikishan once promised Shailendra that they would recommend him around, but didn't keep their promise. Shailendra sent them a note with the lines, Chhoti Si Yeh Duniya, Pehchaane Raaste Hain. Kahin To Miloge, toh Poochhenge Haal ("The world is small, the roads are known. We'll meet sometime, and ask 'How do you do?'"). Shankar-Jaikishan realised what the message meant and having said sorry, turned the lines into a popular song. The song was featured in the film Rangoli (1962), for which the producer Rajendra Singh Bedi wanted to sign up Majrooh Sultanpuri as the lyricist. However, Shankar-Jaikishen insisted on Shailendra and the producer had to oblige.
Apart from Shankar-Jaikishan, Shailendra also shared a rapport with composers such as Salil Chowdhary (Madhumati), Sachin Dev Burman (Guide, Bandini, Kala Bazar), and Ravi Shankar (Anuradha). Apart from Raj Kapoor, he shared a rapport with filmmakers such as Bimal Roy (Do Bigha Zameen, Madhumati, Bandini) and Dev Anand (Guide and Kala Bazar).
In 1961 Shailendra invested heavily in the production of the movie Teesri Kasam (1966), directed by Basu Bhattacharya and starring Raj Kapoor and Waheeda Rehman. The film won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film. However, the film was a commercial failure. The falling health resulting from tensions associated with film production and anxiety due to financial loss, coupled with alcohol abuse, ultimately led to his death.
Shailendra's son Shaily Shailendra also became a lyricist. At the age of 17, Raj Kapoor asked him to complete his father's song Jeena yahan, marna yahan for the film Mera Naam Joker. Shaily Shailendra completed the "mukhra" of the song whereas Shailendra completed "antara" only before his demise. Lyricist, writer, and director Gulzar has stated on many occasions that Shailendra was the best lyricist produced by the Hindi film industry.
Shailendra won the Filmfare Best Lyricist Award three times.
1958: "Yeh Mera Deewanapan Hai" (Yahudi) 1959: "Sab Kuch Seekha Hamne" (Anari) 1968: "Main Gaoon Tum So Jao" (Brahmchari) Popular songs[edit] Some of the popular songs written by Shailendra include:
"Suhana Safar Aur Yeh" – "Madhumati" "Chalat Musafir Moh Liya Re" – "Teesri Kasam" "Yeh Mera Diwanapan Hai" – "Yahudi" "Dil Ka Haal Sune Dilwala" – "Shri 420" "Tu Pyar Ka Saagar Hai" – "Seema" "Yeh Raat Bhigi Bhigi" – "Chori Chori" "Paan Khaye Saiya Hamaro" – "Teesri Kasam" "O Sajana, Barkha Bahar Aai" – "Parakh (1960 film)" "Ruk Ja Raat, Thahar Ja Re Chanda" – "Dil Ek Mandir" "Yaad Na Jaye Bite Dino Ki" – "Dil Ek Mandir" "Chadh Gayo Paapi Bichhua" – "Madhumati" "Awara Hoon" – Awaara "Ramaiya Vastavaiya" – Shri 420 "Mud Mud Ke Na Dekh" – Shri 420 "Mera Joota Hai Japani" – Shri 420 "Aaj Phir Jeene Ki" – Guide "Gata Rahe Mera Dil" – Guide "Piya Tose Naina Laage Re" – Guide "Kya Se Kya Ho Gaya" – Guide "Din Dhal Jaaye Haye" - Guide "Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega" – Sangam "Dost Dost Na Raha" – Sangam "Sab Kuchh Seekha" – Anari "Kisi Ki Muskurahaton Pe" – Anari "Dil Ki Nazar Se" – Anari "Khoya Khoya Chand" – Kala Bazar "Pyaar Hua Ikraar Hua" – Shri 420 "Ajeeb Dastan Hai Yeh" – Dil Apna Aur Preet Parayi "Jhoomti Chali Hawa" - Sangeet Samrat Tansen "Jeena yahan marna yahan" - Mera Naam Joker "Nache Man Mora Magan" – "Meri Surat Teri Ankhen" "Sajan Re Jhooth Mat Bolo" – "Teesri Kasam" "Raat Ke Hamsafar, Thak Ke Ghar Ko Chale" – "An Evening in Paris"
