bachpan ki yaad

aaj ek hasta huaa masoom chehra dekha ,
baag raha thaa , khel raha thaa , sabhi ko kr raha thaa andekha ,
usmein mujhe aaj apni chavi nazar aa gyi ,
aaj mujhe mere bachpan ki yaad aa gyi .

maa uski bahut pyr se use dular rahi thi ,
use dhoor jata dekh , daant kr use apne paas bulaa rahi thi ,
us gussal awaaz mein b us k pyar ki mamta nazar mujhe aa gyi ,
aaj mujhe mere bachpan ki yaad aa gyi .

vo pita us k bachpan ko ek reel mein piroo rahe thai ,
bache mein ache sanskaaro ka vo beej ( sead) boo rahe Thai ,
bache ko dekh kr pita ki aankhein kushi k aansu jalkaa gyi ,
aaj mujhe mere bachpan ki yaad aa gyi .

ek saamanay varg ka parivaar hokr b vo sabse dhani Thai ,
sb chintaa chord kr vo do pal ki kushi mein leen Thai ,
yeh sb dekh kr phir se bachpan mein jaane ki zidd jaag gyi ,
aaj mujhe mere bachpan ki yaad aa gyi ...
