Jeevan
Original Submission by Anita Bahuguna
जीवन
सुख की मंदिम बयार
कभी-कभी
आँधी का रूप ले लेती है।
थम जाती है
मगर थमने से पहले
बहुत कुछ लूट लेती है।
कोई सवाल पूछना है व्यर्थ
प्रारब्ध से लड़ने में तो
बिरला ही कोई होगा समर्थ।
फिर भी जीवन की रणभूमि
लड़ना, करना कर्म
बन जाता है धर्म।
हारना या जीतना
क्षणिक भाव हैं
पर अवश्यम्भावी
और अनिवार्य हैं।
दशा कोई भी क्यों न हो
गतिशीलता ही स्वीकार्य है।
जीवन का इतना ही है अर्थ
स्पंदन... क्रियाशीलता में हों रत।
स्पंदन जहाँ आंतरिक गति है
क्रियाशीलता है वहीं
बाहरी हलचल है।
जिसमें रुक गए गर दोनों
तो समझो उसे मृत ।
सुख की मंदिम बयार
पर होना न आसक्त
बस रहना तैयार
कि कभी-कभी
यह आंधी का रूप ले लेती है
थम जाती है
मगर थमने से पहले
बहुत कुछ लूट लेती है।
