The strong hands that raised her Trembled with fear Burying her in soil Parting forever. Her Dream ceases to exist. © Ila Varma 20/11/15

ख्बाबों की लङियाँ, जुुङती हमारी सांसों से, उम्मीद बुनी हजारों, हकीकत के किनारे, जुङते-जुङते, बिखर गये सारे।। ये बांवरा मन, फिर पीरोने लगा, ख्बाबों की लङियाँ, नई उम्मीद , नई किरण के संग।। बेसमझ, नादांन ये मन, तरंग लेता हजारों, जोङता नई ख्वाहिस से, नये पुराने ख्बाबों को।। दिल सेे यह है वादा जाने नहीं […]
