dharti ka bojh

dharti ka bojh

Baqar Mehdi

MORE BYBaqar Mehdi

    ek chahal-qadmī ke liye galī banī

    samundar ke paas ye phūloñ kalī banī

    meñ bhī bhūle se yahāñ aa jaatā huuñ

    merī umr chalne-phirne ghūmne nahīñ hai

    aurteñ bachche aur do ik būḌhe bhī aate haiñ

    maiñ yūñhī kachhve chaal tarah

    āhista āhista aayā thā

    ik jhāḌī ke pīchhe do saa.e ham-āġhosh the

    ek ne bā-āvāz-e-buland kahā:

    kyā tum ne is būḌhe ko dekhā?

    hañsne āvāz aa.ī

    ye būḌhā dhartī bojh hai

    maiñ ne sunā magar chup-chāp chaltā gayā

    us ne shāyad sahī kahā ye umr chalne-phirne nahīñ hai

    magar maiñ kyā karūñ doctor ne mujhe sau qadam chalne ko kahā hai

    maiñ shurūa se zindagī meñ dhartī bojh thā

    maiñ ne javānī kirm-e-kitābī ban ke guzārī hai

    maiñ ne rātoñ ko jaag jaag kar paḌhā hai

    zindagī meñ ilm justujū sab kuchh nahīñ hai

    ye mujhe tab ma.alūm huā jab maiñ dhartī bojh ban gayā thā

    ek chahal-qadmi ke liye gali bani

    samundar ke pas ye phulon ki kali bani

    mein bhi bhule se yahan aa jata hun

    meri umr chalne-phirne ghumne ki nahin hai

    aurten bachche aur do ek buDhe bhi aate hain

    main yunhi kachhwe ki chaal ki tarah

    aahista aahista aaya tha

    ek jhaDi ke pichhe do sae ham-aghosh the

    ek ne ba-awaz-e-buland kaha:

    kya tum ne is buDhe ko dekha?

    hansne ki aawaz aai

    ye buDha dharti ka bojh hai

    main ne suna magar chup-chap chalta gaya

    us ne shayad sahi kaha ye umr chalne-phirne ki nahin hai

    magar main kya karun doctor ne mujhe sau qadam chalne ko kaha hai

    main shurua se zindagi mein dharti ka bojh tha

    main ne jawani kirm-e-kitabi ban ke guzari hai

    main ne raaton ko jag jag kar paDha hai

    zindagi mein ilm ki justuju sab kuchh nahin hai

    ye mujhe tab malum hua jab main dharti ka bojh ban gaya tha
