Today 9 months when our darling son Girish left alone and left us alone in tears.
Kindly read how I feel.
अकेला।… Written by वासल देवेंद्र..
अकेला।
आज इतना अकेला,
लग रहा है मुझको।
जैसे छोड़ गया कोई,
दफ़न करके मुझको।
याद इतनी,
आती है उसकी।
कि पलकें भी मना करती हैं,
झपकने से अब तो।
लेता रहता हूं करवटें,
अब नींद नहीं आती।
अब तो तकिया भी सो जाता है,
इन्तज़ार करते करते।
नहीं आयेगा लौट कर वो,
ये जानती हैं आंखें।
फिर भी खुली रहती हैं,
इन्तज़ार करते करते।
बहुत समझाता हूं मैं दिल को,
पर वो मानता ही नहीं।
करके साजिश साथ आंसुओं के,
बहुत सताता है वो मुझको।
जी लूंगा तब तक,
है सांसों का सिलसिला जब तक।
नहीं भूल पाऊंगा,
लाडले को अपने।
सांस आख़री,
नां निकले जब तक।
क्या मांगा था वासल देवेन्द्र ने ?
बस इतना ही।
कि दे बेटा अग्नि मुझको,
फिर क्यों हंसती है कुदरत?
कर याद मेरी ख्वाहिश को।
सो जाऊंगा इक दिन मैं भी,
ओड़ कर सफेद कफ़न।
कर ख्वाहिशें अपनी दफ़न,
पा जाऊगां मैं भी उस दिन।
श्मशान के अमन का चमन।
आज इतना अकेला,
लग रहा है मुझको।
जैसे छोड़ गया कोई,
दफ़न करके मुझको।
