रात भर के शोरीले ताण्डव
के परिप्रेक्ष्य में और भी वीरान लगती है
दीवाली से अगले दिन की सुबह।
धुएँ और कुहासे की
मोटी चादर ओढ़े
ख़ामोश, लाचार देखती
जैसे बीत गए
बलात्कार के निशान।
बेशुमार आतिशबाज़ी से पैदा
बेहिसाब चिन्दियाँ कागज़ की
राख, डंडियाँ, खोल, रैपर्स, प्लास्टिक
चारों ओर बर्बादी का मंजर :
बेख़बर सोये बेशर्म, उद्दण्ड व्यभिचारी !

Bikram sir, no body is 'bad' after realization and remorse! Understanding is the first step towards improvement and betterment! So, let's pledge for next year and the rest of our lives:)
DeleteAmit, I tried my best with the Hindi I know to understand this.
ReplyDeleteI'm so grateful Matheikal, for your efforts!
DeleteI wish I had more time to translate it for you.
However, since I earnestly want you to understand it completely and to its core, I suggest you take one of your Hindi teaching colleague's help for an explanation. I extend my sincere thanks to them in anticipation of their co-operation:)
You're so right!
