खो दिया अचानक मैंने अपनी माँ को,
अब उसके बगैर जायूँ मैं कहाँ को I
सारी ज़िन्दगी तो उसने पकड़ रखी थी,
अब यकायक क्यों छोड़ दिया मेरी बाँह को I
काश वह मेरे संग बैठी जब मुस्कराती थी,
थाम लेता मैं उस दिलकश समां को I
यहाँ से तो वहां बहुत जाते देखे हैं हमने,
नहीं आते देखा वहां से यहाँ को I
बादल बनके एक दिन वह मुझ पे बरसेंगी,
ताकता रहता हूँ अब मैं आसमां को I
प्रभु, मुझे अपनी माँ वापिस दे दो,
चाहे छीन लो मुझसे सारे जहाँ को I
Kho diya achaanak maine apni maa ko,
Ab uske bagair jaayun main kahan ko?
Saari zindagi to usne pakad rakhi thi,
Ab yakayak kyun chhod diya meri baanh ko?
Kash woh mere sang jab baithi muskraati thi,
Thaam leta main us dilkash samaan ko.
Yahan se to wahan bahut jaate dekhe hain hamne,
Nahin aate dekha wahan se yahan ko.
Baadal banke woh ek din mujh pe barsengi,
Taaqta rehta hoon ab main aasmaan ko.
Prabhu, mujhe apni maa waapis de do,
Chaahe chhen lo mujhase saare jahan ko.

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.

मां जैसा कुछ नहीं । मां , मां ही होती है ।। मां की याद मैं ऐसी सुंदर , हृदय बिदारक व स्टीक कविता मन मैं आना स्वभाविक है ।।।
Thanks Anila. In my case, after my dad died in an accident on 01 May 1984, I didn’t have a life without her. So the pain is even more.
Thank you Ashish
धन्यवाद जसवंत। काश में वो लम्हे बांध के रख लेता!
Mother is the only entity that runs through one’s physiological system until one is alive…. me too is suffering for the last 38 yrs… beautifully composed poetry, Ravi.. may peace within prevail..
