Mother

माँ सुनाओ मुझे वो कहानी
जिसमे राजा न हो, ना हो रानी

जो हमारी तुम्हारी कथा हो
जो सभी के ह्रदय की व्यथा हो
गंध जिसमे भरी हो धरा की
बात जिसमे न हो अप्सरा की
हो न परियां जहाँ आसमानी

माँ सुनाओ मुझे वो कहानी
जिसमे राजा न हो, ना हो रानी

वो कहानी जो हँसना सिखा दे
पेट की भूख को जो भुला दे
जिसमे सच की भरी चांदनी हो
जिसमे उम्मीद की रोशनी हो
जिसमे न हो कहानी पुरानी

माँ सुनाओ मुझे वो कहानी
जिसमे राजा न हो, ना हो रानी

Basically you never grow up in your mother's eye. She always thinks that you are a child even though you have crossed your 25 (More than one quarter of your age). Let me share one embarassing story.

I was in 12th and I was studying physics (Collision). It was afternoon, when she came and asked, How do you take bath?? Your underwear never wets. That distinct & innocent voice broke my concentration and then I replied quickly, "The same way as you used to give me bath during my childhood". She realised her mistake and moved on and I kept on doing the same mistake. :)
