Meraa Aangan

क्या आज भी मेरे आँगन में 
वो ठंडी हवाएं चलती हैं ?
इक नेह की बदली छाती है 
रिश्तों की बेलें उगती हैं?

होती थी सुकून की यूँ बारिश, 
सपनों की कलियाँ खिलती थीं।  
दिल सराबोर हो जाता था ,
लहरों पे लहरें उठती थीं। 

सादा था पर सच्चाई थी, 
हर रिश्ते में गहराई थी।  
संतुष्टि की उस हरीतिमा पर ,
खुशियों की अरुणाई थी। 

नहीं धूप कहीं तीखी चुभती ,
बस ठंडी मीठी छाया थी।  
वहां पर देवों का  साया था, 
या आँगन की ही गरिमां थी। 

क्या अब भी वहां पर वैसे ही
 सपनों के गुलशन खिलते हैं? 
उन्मुक्त हंसी ,चंचल बचपन, 
के जैसे मोती मिलते हैं?

हाँ नहीं वो घर न वो आँगन ,
पर ज़मीं वहां की आज भी है।  
उस ज़मीं की स्नेहिल गोदी में,
 मेरा विश्वास आज भी है। 
  
शायद अब भी उस आँगन में, 
वो ठंडी हवाएं चलती हैं। 
दिल बाग़ बाग़ हो जाता है, 
जब यादें करवट लेती हैं।

  1. What prompted this nostalgia trip, Indu? Whatever it was, it is a lovely poem, so full of yearning and longing. 'Saada thaa par sachhai thi,
    Har rishte mein gehraayi thi' -- loved the lines.
