Rachna Aur Tum - Ramanath Awasthi. काव्यालय| Kaavyaalaya: House of Hindi Poetry

meree rachanaa ke arth bahut hain
jo bhee tumase lag jaay lagaa lenaa

main geet luTaataa hoo(n) un logon par
duniyaa(n) men jinakaa kuchh aadhaar naheen
main aa(n)kh milaataa hoo(n) un aa(n)khon se
jinakaa koee bhee paharedaar naheen

aa(n)khon kee bhaaShaa to anagin hain
jo bhee sundar ho vah samajhaa denaa.

poojaa karataa hoo(n) us kamajoree kee
jo jeene ko majaboor kar rahee hai.
man oob rahaa hai ab is duniyaa se
jo mujhako tumase door kar rahee hai

dooree kaa dukh baḌhataa jaataa hai
jo bhee tumase ghaT jaae ghaTaa lenaa

kahataa hai mujh se uḌataa huaa dhu(n)aa
rukane kaa naam n le too chalataa jaa
sanket kar rahaa hai nabh vaalaa ghan
pyaase praaNon par mujh saa galataa jaa

par main pyaasaa hoo(n) maroosthal saa
yah baat samandar ko samajhaa denaa

chaa(n)danee chaḌhaataa hoo(n) un charaNon par
jo apanee raahen aap banaate hain
aavaaj lagaataa hoo(n) un geeton ko
jinako madhuvan men bhaunre gaate hain

madhuvan men soye geet hajaaron hai
jo bhee tumase jag jaae jagaa lenaa

chhoTe-chhoTe joote laain men rakhe the,
maasoom aa(n)khon men Dar chipakaa thaa,
naam, dharm, umr — sab miTaa die gae,
sirph़ ek chinh — sTaar ऑph़ DeviD baakee thaa.

binaa shor ke Trenen chalee theen,
sapanon ko Dibbon men band kar,
har sTeshan par koee maa(n) roee thee,

andhere tahakh़aanon men saa(n)se sikuD़ee theen,

aur ummeed — ek khiD़kee kee daraar.

kaimpon kee raakh se uD़tee havaae(n),
aaj bhee us gandh ko Dhotee hain,

jo rok rahaa hamen,
kaun saa yah bhram hai?

मुझमें ऐसी तरलता हो जैसे कि मुझमें नदी बह रही हो। मेरे तट पर टीलों पर मन्दिर हों और प्रिय-अप्रिय सभी को मैं स्वीकारूँ -- मच्छ मगर घड़ियाल, सभी का रहना मुझमें हो। मेरा बदन काट कर नहरें सभी को पोषण पहुँचाएँ।
