  • Class 7th Chapter -7 , Summer Sun 🌞 Hindi Translation.

    ग्रीष्म सूर्य

    (Summer Sun – R. L. Stevenson, हिंदी काव्यानुवाद)

    महान है रवि, दूर गगन में विचरण करता,
    शांत, निरभ्र आकाश में सहज विहार करता;
    नीले, दमकते दिनों की गोद में बैठा हुआ,
    वर्षा से भी सघन किरणों की वर्षा करता हुआ।

    खिड़की के पर्दे चाहे कितने ही कस लें हम,
    शीतल रखें भले ही आँगन का हर कोना नम,
    पर वह ढूंढ ही लेता एक झिर्री, एक दरार,
    सुनहरी उँगलियाँ भेजकर करता भीतर संचार।

    धूल भरी, मकड़ी के जालों से घिरी अटारी में,
    चाबी के छिद्र से झाँककर मुस्काए हर घड़ी में;
    टूटी खपरैलों की दरारों से होकर पार,
    भूसे के कोठार में भी बिखराए उजियार।

    इसी बीच वह अपना सुनहरा रूप फैलाता,
    बगिया की हर मेड़, हर कोने को दमकाता,
    गर्म, चमकीली आभा हर तरफ बरसाए,
    लता की गहराई तक भी झाँक कर मुस्काए।

    पर्वतों के ऊपर, नीले नभ के पार चलता,
    हवा की स्वच्छ राह में सच्चे कदमों से बढ़ता,
    बालक को हर्षाने, गुलाब को रंग देने,
    संसार का माली बन, वह चलता रहता जाने।

    — आर. एल. स्टीवेन्सन
