हिन्दी अनुवाद ― अब्दुल कलाम किस तरह अपने पिता के बारे में वर्णन करते हैं?
Ans. Kalam says that his father Jainulabdeen neither had much formal education nor had much wealth, but he possessed great innate wisdom and a true generosity of spirit. He avoided all inessential comforts & luxuries. However all necessities were provided for, in terms of food, medicines or clothes.
हिन्दी अनुवाद ― कलाम कहते हैं कि उनके पिता जैनुलाब्दीन न तो ज्यादा शिक्षित थे न ही उनके पास ज्यादा पैसा था। पर वह बहुत उदार व दयालु थे। वे बेकार के आरामदेह व विलासितापूर्ण जीवन से बचते थे पर जरूरत की सब चीजें जैसे खाना, दवाइयाँ और कपड़ों की कोई कमी न रखते थे।

Is there any difference between the two roads as the poet describes them in stanzas two and three?

हिन्दी अनुवाद ― दोनों रास्ते एक-से थे। शुरुआत में कवि को लगा कि इनमें से एक रास्ते पर काफी घास उगी हुई है और उस पर लोगों की आवाजाही कम रही होगी, पर जब वह उस रास्ते पर कुछ दूरी तक चला. उसे महसूस हुआ कि ये रास्ता भी दूसरे रास्ते जैसा ही है।

What does the poet say the wind God winnows?
हिन्दी अनुवाद ― वायु के देवता क्या फटकते हैं से कवि क्या कहना चाहता है?
Ans. Wind God winnows means that nature sifts the weak things from the strong ones. Everything that is weak is tossed by the powerful and gets destroyed, just like the winnower separates the grains of wheat from the chaff. Similarly, the wind God separates the weak from the strong.
हिन्दी अनुवाद ― वायु के देवता फटकते हैं, मतलब, प्रकृति कमजोर चीजों को ताकतवर चीजों से छानकर अलग कर देती है। हर वो चीज जो कमजोर है, वह ताकतवर हवा द्वारा उछाल दी जाती है और नष्ट हो जाती है, ठीक उसी तरह जैसे फटकने वाला, चोकर में से गेहूँ को अलग कर देता है। उसी तरह वायु के देवता भी कमजोर को ताकतवर से अलग कर देते हैं।

16. Answer the following question in 75 words ―
How does the Guru manage to save his disciple's life?
हिन्दी अनुवाद ― गुरु ने शिष्य की जिन्दगी किस तरह से बचायी?
Ans. The guru tries to confuse the king by expressing his desire to be killed first, then to further confuse the king, he tells the story of becoming a king in the next incarnation Apparently it may sound like a case of pure lie to save your dear one's life, but if we go deeper, we realize that guru was trying to save the life of all the people in the kingdom. Ultimately he is able to pull everyone out of the misery of living in the kingdom of fools.
हिन्दी अनुवाद ― गुरु ने राजा का ध्यान भटकाने की कोशिश की। उन्होंने अपनी इच्छा जाहिर की कि वे पहले मरना चाहेंगे, फिर उन्होंने राजा को और उलझाना चाहा यह कह कर कि जो इस सूली से लटक कर पहले मरेगा वही अगले जन्म में यहाँ का राजा बनेगा।
यूँ तो ये साफ झूठ लगता है कि ये बात सिर्फ किसी अपने को बचाने को कही होगी, पर अगर हम गहराई से देखें तो हमें ज्ञात होगा कि गुरु उस राज्य में रहने वाले सब लोगों की जिन्दगी बचाने की कोशिश कर रहे थे। आखिरकार उन्होंने उस मूर्खी के राज्य के कष्टों से सबको निकाल लिया।
