darakht-see kavitaa

daraKht-see kavitaa
tanee rahatee hai, khaḌee rahatee hai
jhanjhaavaaton ko ha(n)sakar bhagaa detee hai
bijalee, varShaa, olon kee choTon ke baad bhee
detee rahatee hai hariyaalee
vichaaron ke akaal men

aasaan naheen hotaa daraKht-see kavitaa ko
Dhahaa denaa

'yadaa yadaa hi dharmasy' kee glaani ke lie
shataabdee men aataa hai koee kalayugapuruSh
'jaanaami adharman, n ch me nivRtti' kee tarah
jab paidaa hotaa hai koee duryodhan, koee kans
tab baḌee saajishon ke saath
aaraa, kulhaaḌaa chalaakar
kaaTe jaate hain aisee kavitaa ke haath paa(n)v
bhoolakar ki phir kopalen phooT aatee hain
jaise prem a(n)khuaataa hee hai
bhed ke jahareele sansaar men bhee
jaise har dange men ghulee hotee hai
bachaane vaale kee bhee kahaanee

bas tapasvee-saa
denaa paḌataa hai daraKht banane-saa samay kavitaa ko
aur chhaayaa milatee rahatee hai peeDhee dar peeḌhee.
