Es Kitaab Mai .…!

By Harsh Vardhan Poddar

Ek kitaab apne sath rakhti thi wo

Log kehte the kuch kuch tuh likti thi usmai wo.

Na jane kabhi un bawakofon ko kaise na pta chala,

Likhti nahi usse ruj padha karti thi wo.

Logo ne mujhse pucha ki tujhe Kaise pta ki use padhti thi wo,

Uski ankhon ki nigahe kuch tezz chalti thi jab jab kitaab mai kalam chalati thi,

Sabko laga shayad thik keh rha tha mai,

Jab gour kia toh sabne samjha Sach hi keh rha tha mai.

Ek din usse puch hi lia maine essa kya hai us kitaab mai jise bar bar padti ho?

Usne kaha aaks dikhta hai esmai mera mujhe, eslie roj ushi ko takti hun mai.

Shayd jo kahani thi wo uski zindagi ki koi nishani thi !!..…

Ek roj wo zara jaldi chali gai, hadbadi mai apni kitaab chod gai,

Usse aur ache see jan lon ye such kar maine uski kitaab padh li,

Bas us lamhe ki verane mai meri duniya hi palat gai,

Jise kitaab ko kahani samajh rha tha mai,

Us kitaab k panno pe chittr the mere bane hue,

Har agle panne pe thi ek kavita likhi hui jinko pad k meri anke roo roo k sukh gai,

Usne chup chap bin kuch kahe mujhko apna muhtaz bana dia,

Duniya se chupakar mujhe apna sabse bada raz bna lia.

Jab agle roj mili toh muje laga jaise uski anke mujhse kuch puch rhi thi,

Maine uski himmat k lie usse puch lia, kya such hai tumhare vyakul man mai?

Usne ankhe mila kar pucha kya tumne meri kitaab toh nahi kholi thi?

Mere mana karne pe bhi ye besharm nighahe han bol hi gai,

Fir usne bhi muje himmat dene k lie kaha jooth ache se kheh lete ho tum,

Par meri ankhe takte hue kahan kho jate ho tum?

Shayad khud ko bhol jata hun mai, sun lia turant uski nigahon ne meri nazroon mai,

Aur keh dia usne ki bas esshi lie kabhi dikha nahi tumhe ki padhti nahi,

Likhti thi roj bas tumhe hi mai es kitaab mai,

Tumhe hi mai takti thi..…

Es kitaab Mai .…!
