pranapriy shyam!
log kahate haian, tumako gaye kuchh hi din to hue.
kintu mujhe aisa lagata hai mano kee yug bit gaye.
hamalog kabhi kunjoan mean phirate the,
kabhi tum meri gagar uthate the,
kabhi meri veni pak dakar nachate the,
kabhi maian tumhari murali chhin leti thi,
yah sab to mujhe smaran hi nahian ata.
kabhi aisa hua tha kya?
mujhe to aisa pratit hota hai ki
maian sada se tumhare darshan ko t dap rahian hooan.
bahut prayatn karanepar bhas hota hai ki
poorv ke kisi janm ke bachapan mean tumhara-mera sath tha.
usi ki kshin rekha kabhi-kabhi mastishk par khianch jati hai,
aur phir mit jati hai.
itana to saty hai ki tum kabhi mile the.
tabhi to phir dekhane ki lalasa bani hai.
