MORE BYDr. Abdullah

    bhuul gayā thā bachpan ko maiñ

    apnī kitāboñ ke safhoñ ke andar shāyad

    ik kāġhaz ke purze ko tah kar ke jaise

    rakh dete haiñ

    ab lauTā huuñ barsoñ baa'd to yuuñ lagtā hai

    pagDanDī jo lañgDā lañgDā kar chaltī thī

    lekin jis muḌī-tuḌī uñglī thāme maiñ

    rozāna schōl ko jaate

    lauT ke aate

    sīdhā chalnā siikh gayā thā

    ab bhī vahīñ hai

    galī vahī hai

    nukkaḌ par ab bhī ik būḌhā

    gaaḌe maile kapḌe jholī phailā.e

    chehre jhurriyoñ meñ chhupī āñkhoñ se

    har aane jaane vaale ko taktā

    ik dūsre ke mil jaane aas lagā.e

    din bhar yuñhī baiThā rahegā

    taktā rahegā

    pagDanDī bhī galī bhī aur būḌhā bhik-mangā

    sab mere dekhe-bhāle haiñ lekin mujh ko

    kyoñ lagtā hai jaise in barsoñ meñ sab kuchh badal gayā hai

    vo jo apne rā'sha-zada hāthoñ ko

    mere sar par rakh kar mujh ko du'ā.eñ dete thakte nahīñ the

    merī balā.eñ le kar mujh ko ek nayā jīvan dete the

    vo saare to ab duniyā ko chhoḌ chuke haiñ

    baiThak aur chaupāl sabhī chup-chāp paḌe haiñ

    uuñgh rahe haiñ

    gaañv ke bāhar Dhīlā-Dhālā

    aadhā soyā aadhā jaagā

    chauk jo ik suunā rasta thā

    ab to vahāñ bāzār sajā hai

    bhiiḌ lagī hai

    shor-o-ġhul paḌā hai

    gaañv shāyad qasba bante bante ruk kar

    ik pal ke vaqfe meñ jaise Thahar gayā hai

    us gaañv ko apnā kahne meñ ab

    mujh ko kuchh sankoch hotā to hai lekin

    maiñ gar apnā basta khol ke

    khoyā bachpan DhūñDh nikālūñ

    lañgDātī pagDanDī uñglī thāme schōl ke ik do chakkar kāTūñ

    to phir mumkin hai maiñ

    us gaañv ko apnā kah pā.ūñgā

    bhul gaya tha bachpan ko main

    apni kitabon ke safhon ke andar shayad

    ek kaghaz ke purze ko tah kar ke jaise

    rakh dete hain

    ab lauTa hun barson ba'd to yun lagta hai

    pagDanDi jo langDa langDa kar chalti thi

    lekin jis ki muDi-tuDi ungli thame main

    rozana school ko jate

    lauT ke aate

    sidha chalna sikh gaya tha

    ab bhi wahin hai

    gali wahi hai

    nukkaD par ab bhi ek buDha

    gaDe maile kapDe ki jholi phailae

    chehre ki jhurriyon mein chhupi aankhon se

    har aane jaane wale ko takta

    ek dusre ke mil jaane ki aas lagae

    din bhar yunhi baiTha rahega

    takta rahega

    pagDanDi bhi gali bhi aur buDha bhik-manga

    sab mere dekhe-bhaale hain lekin mujh ko

    kyon lagta hai jaise in barson mein sab kuchh badal gaya hai

    wo jo apne ra'sha-zada hathon ko

    mere sar par rakh kar mujh ko du'aen dete thakte nahin the

    meri balaen le kar mujh ko ek naya jiwan dete the

    wo sare to ab duniya ko chhoD chuke hain

    baiThak aur chaupal sabhi chup-chap paDe hain

    ungh rahe hain

    ganw ke bahar Dhila-Dhaala

    aadha soya aadha jaga

    chauk jo ek suna rasta tha

    ab to wahan bazar saja hai

    bhiD lagi hai

    shor-o-ghul paDa hai

    ganw shayad qasba bante bante ruk kar

    ek pal ke waqfe mein jaise Thahar gaya hai

    us ganw ko apna kahne mein ab

    mujh ko kuchh sankoch sa hota to hai lekin

    main gar apna basta khol ke

    khoya bachpan DhunDh nikalun

    langDati pagDanDi ki ungli thame school ke ek do chakkar kaTun

    to phir mumkin hai main

    us ganw ko apna kah paunga
