jab main samudar ke paas rehta thaa

Posted: Jan 28, 2008 Mon 11:37 am     Views: 237    Interacts: 0

jab main samudar ke paas rehta thaa
kabhi kabhi achanak hi
bina umeed
jab main kuch aur soch raha hota thaa
aasman ki taraf dekhnay lagta thaa

aur sooraj ki roshni main
jo darakhton k haray patton main aati thee
main ek samudar dekhta thaa
paani bina ajeeb si jagah ki tarah
jis ka kyaa naam thaa
main kabhi na kaih saka.

-tr. Ravi Kopra
