Mumbai revisited


उदासी भरी उन आँखों से पूछो
जो किसी का इन्तज़ार हैं करतीं
जब किसी कि पर्छाई देती है दिखायी
क्या मेह्सूस वो आँखें हैं करतीं।
वो जो आज सुबह गया था अपने काम पर
क्या जानता था न रात तक पहुँचेगा घर
वो जो सुरज के ढलने पर देखता है एक नये दिन का राह
क्या जानता था न होगी उसके लिये अब कभी सहर।

  • Hey starry nights!!
    Hope u'r doing well... :)
    U forgot ur hindi means????

    N well the poem is simply trying to say that someone is waiting eagerly, n uselessly for her loved ones to return as darkness takes over ...
    n the people who are the victims of the traumatic attack couldn't ever imagine that they wouldn't be returning home at nightfall, n their hopes for a new day after the night are all grayed out...
