Ek Baar Mushkuraa Do (Smile You For Once) Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Ek baar muskura do,
Tumhe dekha ki nahi,
Ek chehra karib she
Ki pracchai ban picche-picche aati huyin,
Nahi, nahi, chali jati huyi,
Kabhi julfon mein,
Kabhi gamkhin, kabhi khushi mein,
Jise samajha nahin, bujha nahin,
Jo bhi ho,
Dekha nahi, dekha nahi,
Ek baar muskuraa do,
Ek baar muskura do.


Smile you for once,
Saw I her or not,
A face from a close range
That a shadow kept following,
No, no, going away,
Sometime under the curls hanging over,
Sometime sad, sometime joyful,
One whom understood I not, took to not,
Whatever be that,
Saw I not, Saw I not,
Smile you fro once,
Smile you for once.
