नेपालीहरू बसाेबास गर्ने समाज नेपाली समाज हाे । समाजलाई असर गर्ने तत्त्वहरूलाई सामाजिक समस्या भनिन्छ । सामाजिक समस्याहरूले प्रायः मानिसकाे दैनिक जीवनमा प्रत्यक्ष प्रभाव पार्दछन् । यसले विशेष परिस्थितिहरूमा मानिसहरूको प्रतिक्रियामा पनि प्रभाव पार्छ । केही मानिसहरू सामाजिक समस्या र विकृतिबारे अनजान भएकाले उनीहरू सामाजिक समस्याहरूमा संलग्न हुन्छन् ।
सामाजिक समस्याहरूमा बालिका बेचबिखन, सार्वजनिक स्थानमा धुम्रपान, जुवा खेल्ने, विपरीत लिङ्गका दुई व्यक्तिबीचको अनिच्छुक शारीरिक सम्बन्ध, लागुऔषध दुर्व्यसन, महिला हिंसा, चोरी, डकैती, अपहरण, हत्या, बलात्कार, भ्रष्टाचार, मदिरा सेवन आदि समस्याहरू हुन् । त्यस्ता सामाजिक समस्याहरूले हाम्राे दैनिक जीवनमा शान्ति, कल्याण, हाम्रो राष्ट्रको विकास, सुरक्षा र सद्भावमा बाधा पुर्याएका छन् ।
नेपाल विश्वको अल्प विकसित देश मध्येको एक हो । आजको समाजमा विभिन्न प्रकारका सामाजिक समस्या र विकृतिहरू छन् । सामाजिक समस्या भनेको कुनै निश्चित स्थान वा विश्वभरका मानिसहरूको समूहलाई असर गर्ने समस्याहरू हुन् । नेपाल जातीय व्यवस्था, बालश्रम, अशिक्षा, लैङ्गिक असमानता, अन्धविश्वास, धार्मिक विवाद लगायतका अनेकौँ सामाजिक समस्याले ग्रसित छ। यी सामाजिक समस्याहरू हुनुमा कुनै एक व्यक्तिकाे मात्र भूमिका नभएर सिङ्गाे समाजकै हात छ ।
नेपालमा धर्म र संस्कारका नाममा अनेक प्रथा र चलनहरू प्रचलनमा रहेका छन् । देउकी प्रथा एक सामाजिक प्रथा वा संस्कृतिकाे एउटा रूप हाे । जसमा सुदूरपश्चिमका पहाडी क्षेत्रमा बसाेबास गर्ने गरिब मानिसहरूले आफ्नी कन्यालाई बेचेर समर्पण गर्ने गर्छन् । त्यस्तै दाइजो प्रथा जसमा बेहुलाले बेहुलीबाट पैसा, वस्तु, दहेज लिन्छन् । यस्तै मानिस बिरामी हुँदा धामी झाँक्री, झारफुक गर्ने, बाक्सी आदिकाे आक्षेप लगाउने विकृतिहरू नेपाली समाजमा व्याप्त छन् ।
परम्परादेखि चलिआएका हरेक कुरालाई आधार मानेर त्यसलाई पछ्याउँदै जाँदा त्यसभित्र रहेका नराम्रा कुराहरूले मानिसलाई पछाडि पारेका छन् । कतिपय संस्कारका नाममा भएका विकृतिले समाज र देशलाईसमेत नाेक्सान पुर्याइरहेकाे हुन्छ । अहलेकाे समय, समाज र परिवेशअनुसार कतिपय परिवर्तन गर्नुपर्ने कुराहरू वा हटाउनुपर्ने कुराहरूलाई हामीले त्याग्न सक्नुपर्छ । यस्ता विकृतिबारे अरूलाई बुझाउन र जनचेतना फैलाउन सक्नुपर्छ ।
K-pop is a multi-billion-dollar industry. Bands like BTS and Blackpink are selling out all over the world. BTS is second only to Drake in international music sales. Despite language differences, Kpop is doing extremely well in the international market. Kpop has played an important role in bridging the east and west. How did K-pop take over the world? It was 1992, three young men from a boy band were competing in a live television talent show. Korean lyrics, Euro-pop, African American hip-hop, and rap create a fresh sound. They dance in unison. The studio audience was in applause. But the judges were less impressed. The band received the night's lowest rating and was voted off the show.
The judges couldn't have been more mistaken. Because in no time the song “I know” reaches the top of the charts and remains there for a record-breaking 17 weeks. That night, the band Seo Taeji and Boys sparked a revolution. Korean pop, also known as K-pop, was born. Following the trendy music style and dance of Seo Taeji and Boys in the late 1990s, major kpop artists made their way to China and Taiwan. Seo Taiji and Boys had altered South Korea's musical and performance landscape by the time they officially disbanded in 1996, paving the way for other artists to be even more experimental and push the boundaries even further. Kpop successfully entered Japan in 2002, when Korea and Japan hosted the FIFA World Cup. BoA, also known as the "Queen of Kpop," topped the charts in Japan several times, introducing many other artists to different Asian countries.
By 2008, larger forces have meant that K-reach pop has extended far beyond its Asian fan base as kpop began to become available on international music platforms. People overseas, if they saw it, heard it, and liked it. But the first big international breakout for kpop was Gangnam Style in 2012. The world got introduced to Korean music. Maybe that was our first time listening to it too. The official Gangnam Style videos on YouTube alone had over three billion views, the most of any video at the time. Gangnam style was popular all over the world but it was taken more like a viral sound than kpop music. Many of us were unaware that it was a Korean song or that it represented kpop. Bands such as BTS, BigBang, 2NE1, Blackpink, and Girls Generation gradually entered the market as true definitions of KPOP as trendy music, cool and flashy clothes, synchronized dances, outstanding visuals, and so on. One of the main reasons that kpop or Korean bands are popular is because of their dedicated fanbase. Korean artists, known as kpop idols, tend to maintain a closer relationship with their fans through vlogs, live shows, reality shows, and other means.
Kpop bands are now having an instant hit or rise in the global market, what might be the reason for it? The answer is none other than entertainment firms (Big THREE). Let's take a look at the entertainment industry in Korea. The big three are three major companies that include SM, JYP, and YG. They are former kpop idols who started these businesses in a small rented room with a few producers and artists and have grown to be billion-dollar corporations. They recruit and train young children who have the potential to become idols. The trainees could be as young as 10 to 14 years old. Each large company has approximately 200 trainees who are gradually eliminated and form a band of 3-10 people. They spend hours practicing along with school. Following their debut, the band is completely managed by the company, including their songs, outfits, dance, and so on, in accordance with their contracts. These contracts have always been a topic of controversy.
The big reason for kpop to become a global hit is the support from the country. When Asia was in the grip of a major financial crisis in the late 1990s, South Korean leaders decided to use music to improve the country's image and cultural influence. As a result, the country's government invested millions of dollars in establishing a Ministry of Culture with a separate department devoted to K-pop. The investment was worth it. It turns out that the Korean government views the K-pop industry in the same way that the American government views the automobile and banking industries, or how the Nepalese government views the remittance sector, implying that these are industries that must be safeguarded for its potential and financial benefit.
जीवनमा प्रयाशको महत्त्व
जीवनमा सफल हुनका निम्ति धेरैले वर्षौसम्म काेसिस गरेर पनि केही हासिल गर्न सक्दैनन् । उनीहरूको असफलताको कारण धेरै छन् । तीमध्ये महत्त्वपूर्ण कुरा भनेकाे प्रयास । हामीले जीवनमा प्रयास नगरेर धेरै दुख भोग्नुपर्छ । धेरै अवसर पाए तापनि विभिन्न कारणहरूले गर्दा हामीले त्यसको उपयोग गर्न सक्दैनौँ । प्रयासविना नै जीवनमा सफल हुन चाहने पनि धेरै छन् । उनीहरूलाई सबै कुरा अगाडि नै चाहिन्छ । तर कुनै पनि कुरा त्यतिकै पाइँदैन, जबसम्म हामी आफ्नो पूर्ण मन र समय लगाएर त्यसलाई पाउने प्रयास गर्दैनाैँ । जीवनमा सबै कुराको मूल्य । मूल्य नचुकाएसम्म त्यो पाउन सकिँदैन ।
हामी सबै जना त्यस्तै छाैँ; जहिले पनि काम गर्न नखोज्ने र यतिकै बसेर हरेक कुरा हासिल गर्न खोज्ने । मानसहरू त्यसै क्रममा धेरै समय यतिकै बिताइरहन्छाैँ । जब हामीलाई हाम्रो गल्ती थाह हुन्छ तब हामी केही गर्न सक्दैनौँ । हामीसँग केही उपाय नै हुँदैन मात्र आफ्नो भाग्य अथवा अरू केहीमाथि आरोप लगाएर मनको सन्तुष्टि प्राप्त गर्न खाेज्छाैँ । मानिसकाे स्वभाव भनेकाे आफ्नो गल्ती स्वीकार गर्ने होइन क्यारे? हुन यो पनि एउटा कारण हो जसले गर्दा हामी धेरै कुरामा पछाडि परेका छौँ । आफ्नो गल्ती स्वीकार गरी त्यसलाई सुधार्नु सबैभन्दा ठुलो कुरा हो । आजका मानिस काेसिस र आफ्नो गल्ती स्वीकार नगरेकै कारण असफल भएका छन् ।
भगवान श्रीकृष्णले गीतामा उपदेश दिएअनुसार हामीले कर्म गर्नुपर्छ तर फलको चिन्ता गर्नु हुँदैन । हुनत अहिलेको समयमा मान्छेले कर्म नै आफ्नो राम्रै गर्न सकेका छैनन् । त्यसमाथि निःस्वार्थ कर्म भनेको त अनौठो कुरा हाे । श्रीकृष्ण पनि हाम्रो पूर्वज हुन् र उनको कर्मले गर्दा नै उनी पूजनीय छन्।
जीवनमा प्रयास गर्दै गरेका मानिसहरूले धेरै कुरा प्राप्त गरेका छन् । अहिले विश्वमा नाम भएका मानिसहररूले आफ्नो जीवनमा कहिले हार मानेनन् र जहिले पनि प्रयास गरिरहे । उनीहरूको प्रयास सफलतामा परिणत भयो । यदि उनीहरूले प्रयाश नगरेको भए र आफ्नो हार स्वीकार गरेको भए आज यति विकास अथवा परिवर्तन आउन सम्भव थिएन । त्यसैले हामीले जीवनमा कहिले पनि सजिलै हार मानेर पछि हट्नु हुँदैन । प्रयास नै सफलताको चाबी हो । यदि हामीले जीवनमा काेसिस निरन्तर गर्याैँ भने अवश्य पनि आफ्नो गन्तव्यमा पुग्नेछौँ।
प्रश्न यो उब्जिन्छ कि कसरी आफ्नो ध्यान केन्द्रित गरेर अगाडी बढ्ने त ? तर प्रश्नसँगै उत्तर लुकेको देखिन्छ । हामीले आफ्नो अपेक्षालाई आफ्नो कर्म र गन्तव्यको बाटोमा ल्याउनबाट वञ्चित गर्न सक्नुपर्छ । यदि हामीले हिम्मत तथा विश्वास राखेर आफ्नो गन्तव्यतर्फ लाग्यौँ भने अवश्य पनि केही असम्भव छैन । यो विश्वमा केही पनि गर्न असम्भव छैन तर गर्नका निम्ति प्रयास र दृढ निश्चय आवश्यक छ । यदि हामीले आफूमाथि विश्वास राखेनौँ भने केही पनि गर्न सक्दैनौँ । त्यसैले जीवनमा प्रयास गरिराख्न र आफूमाथि विश्वास गर्न अति आवश्यक छ । हरेक अवसरसँग चुनौती र हरेक चुनौतीसँग अवसर परस्पर आउने गर्दछ । हामीले यदि प्रयास गरिराख्याैँ भने ती सबै चुनौतीलाई पार गरेर अवसरको उपयोग गर्न सक्छौँ । अहिलेको समयमा यो कुरा बुझ्न अति आवश्यक रहेको देखिन्छ । त्यसैले हरेक व्यक्तिले आफ्नो जिम्मेवारी बुझेर आफ्नो कर्म गर्नै पर्छ अन्यथा उसले जीवनमा सफलता प्राप्त गर्न सक्दैन ।
Have you ever wondered what is responsible for us being addicted towards certain activities? It is a part of our nervous system; so let's find out what it exactly is and what it does.
The part of the nervous system that is responsible for all the addiction, satisfaction and pleasure, is dopamine. What exactly is dopamine? Dopamine is basically a chemical messenger also known as neurotransmitter. It is also known as the happiness hormone. It plays a vital role in our body. It is involved in movement, memory, reward seeking, attention seeking, pleasure, mood, sleep, arousal and satisfaction of the body. The release of large amounts of dopamine forms a habit or craving, for example when we are choosing a food to eat, our brain tells us to pick the one which releases more dopamine as it gives us more pleasure. Basically, the internet platforms and video games have switched from chronological feed to algorithm based feed. This is why video games have levels and ranking systems as they make us keep coming back to the game, and this is exactly what makes us addicted. Social Media platforms have such algorithms that make us release dopamine faster and this gets us addicted towards the platform and forms a habit.
What is the best way to not set an unwanted habit or get addicted towards something? The method that helps is dopamine detox. What is dopamine detox? Dopamine detox is restraining yourself from all activities that can raise your dopamine level. When we detox dopamine, we detach ourselves from everyday stimuli. Dr. Cameron Sepah is the creator of dopamine detox. Why should we try dopamine detox and how does it help us? As we know, dopamine is basically responsible for people becoming overweight, alcoholic, drug addicts and addicted to video games or others. Even extreme sexual desire is because of dopamine and basically it is the reason why people tend to have forced sexual intercourse. Dopamine detox is the process when we basically avoid bad habits that make us feel pleasure or any kind of satisfaction. It is said that we’ll stop doing a set of addictive activities after 90 days of dopamine detox. Dopamine detox is done when we basically give up doing addictive tasks that are unhealthy for our health like playing too much video games, using social media, consuming sugar, binge-watching series and start getting engaged in healthy tasks. The healthy tasks that are to be done in dopamine detox are exercises, talking to people, doing our normal tasks, cooking and also reading.
What are the benefits of dopamine detox? Basically the real benefit of dopamine detox is that we will start getting rid of bad habits and start forming good habits. We will gradually start becoming even healthier as we will stop consuming unhealthy substances and also stop consuming stuff on social media. We will stop procrastinating and doing unwanted activities which will give us more time for important activities. The other benefits of it are stress relief, lower blood pressure and improved sleep.
I would like to conclude by saying that dopamine detox is not completely possible as dopamine naturally occurs and the brain produces dopamine all the time. Dopamine detox is also not a scientifically researched approach. We will obviously feel pleasure or satisfaction and crave for many things which will release dopamine from our brain so that a true dopamine detox is not possible; however, in the process, we will get rid of many bad habits and also we will start feeling healthier and fresher.
सम्झिन मन लाग्छ अहिले
ती बाल्यकालका दिनहरू
जीवनको रमाइलो अवस्था,
खेलूँ खेलूँ लाग्ने, नाचूँ नाँचू लाग्ने
सुतूँ ,खाऊँ ,खेलूँ, फेरि सुतूँ
न त कुनै किसिमकाे तनाव
न त गर्नुपर्छ कुनै किसिमको काम।
आउँछन्, माया गर्छन् सबै
खुसी भइन्थ्याे, त्यसमै रमाई
बाल्यकालको फाइदा नै त्यही
सबैकाे माया, हाँसी खुसी जीवन
एक्लै छोडी काेही कहीँ जाँदैनथे
अलि कति घाऊ चोट लाग्दा
म रिसाएर अलि पर भाग्दा
सबजना आतिन्थे र छिनमै मातिन्थेँ ।
आफू त सबैकाे प्यारो भइने
जता अरू जान्छन् आफू त्यतै गइने,
रमायाे खेल्याे, घुम्याे त्यही रहेछ बाल्यकाल
खायाे खेल्याे, अनि फेरि घुम्याे
यही रहेछ बाल्यकाल ।
अहिले सम्झँदा,
कति रमाइला थिए ती दिनहरू ,
लाग्छ, अहिले त्यही अवस्थामै रहूँ,
सानो सानो कुरामा पनि रमाइरहूँ,
सानाे सानाे कुरामा खुसी भइरहूँ ।
महिलाहरूले निर्धक्क भएर आफ्नो जीवनसँग सम्बन्धित हरेक निर्णय आफैँले गर्ने अधिकार प्राप्त गर्नुलाई महिला सशक्तीकरण भनिन्छ । महिलाहरूको आर्थिक र सामाजिक स्थितिमा सुधार ल्याएर उनीहरूलाई आत्मनिर्भर बनाई उनीहरूको आत्मविश्वासलाई अझ बलियो बनाउने प्रक्रिया नै महिला सशक्तिकरण हाे । विशेषगरी पिछडिएका महिलाहरुलाई उनीहरूको हक हितको बारेमा सचेत गराई शिक्षा र रोजगारीको अवसर दिलाउने कार्यमा सबैले सहयोग गर्नुपर्दछ । महिलाहरू सिर्जनाका शक्ति हुन् । उनीहरू आफ्नो परिवारको सुख शान्ति, समृद्धिका लागि सधैभरि नि:स्वार्थ भएर खटिरहन्छन् ।
घर, परिवार, समाज र राष्ट्रको प्रगतिमा महिलाहरूको महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका रहेको हुन्छ । संसारभरि नै जतिसुकै प्रगतिशील राष्ट्र भए पनि महिलाहरूले दुर्व्यवहार खेप्दै, अपहेलित र उपेक्षित जीवन बिताउँदै आएको इतिहास हामीसामु छ । विकसित देशहरूले महिलाहरूलाई उनीहरूको हक, अधिकार दिलाएर महिला सशक्तीकरणलाई धेरै उचाइमा पुऱ्याइसकेका छन् । हाम्रो जस्तो देशमा भने यो निकै पछाडि परेको छ । नेपालमा महिलाहरूले कुल जनसङ्ख्याको आधाभन्दा बढी भाग ओगटेको भए तापनि समाजमा भएका कुरीति, विकृति, विसङ्गति, अशिक्षा, अन्धविश्वास, लैङ्गिक विभेद , राजनीतिक अस्थिरताका कारण नै महिला सशक्तीकरण अगाडि बढ्न सकेको छैन ।
नेपाली समाजमा विवाहपछि महिलाहरूलाई सम्पत्ति ठानी आफ्नो अधीनमा राखेर विभिन्न कारण देखाई कुटपिट गरी निर्मम हत्यासम्म गर्ने कार्य नेपाली समाजमा हमाीले देखे भाेगेकै छाैँ । बाल विवाह, विधवा प्रथा, दाइजो प्रथा आदिले गर्दा नै यस्ता घटनाहरू घटिरहेका छन् । तर विडम्बना हाम्रो देशका अधिकांश महिलाहरू यसको विरोध गर्नुको सट्टा यसलाई सहेर नै जीवन बिताइरहेका छन् । त्यसैले महिलाहरूले पुरुषमा भर पर्नुको सट्टा समाजमा आफ्नै स्थान बनाएर आफ्नो जीवन जिउनु पर्दछ भन्ने बारेमा उनीहरूलाई सचेत गराउनु जरूरी छ । शिक्षा एक मात्र यस्तो शक्ति हो जसले समाजलाई द्रुत गतिमा परिवर्तन गराउन सक्दछ ।
समाज परिवर्तन गर्न सकेमा मात्र हामी महिला सशक्तीकरणमा अघि बढन सक्छाैँ । महिला शिक्षित भएमा परिवार, समाज र सिङ्गो राष्ट्रबाट नै अज्ञानता हटेर जानेछ अनि महिलाले पनि हरेक क्षेत्रमा पुरुष सरह योग्य नागरिकको भूमिका खेल्न सक्नेछन् । यसरी सबैको जीवन सहज बन्नेछ । फलस्वरूप समाज र राष्ट्रकाे समेत उन्नति हुनेछ ।
Come on get up,
Chase your dreams and learn to stand up;
Don’t let anyone scatter you away from inside,
Instead, you learn to stand up for your dying soul.
Come on wake up,
Learn to shine like the sun;
Be furious to achieve your aim,
And discover your hidden personality.
Be tactful not moron,
I want you to be an example;
So that you teach me,
And I could teach you.
Let’s be a part of this race,
Where I do mistakes-
And you erase my mistakes,
Or I erase your mistakes.
Don’t worry about you,
Cause you are me,
And I am you,
In fact I am your soul,
And you are my lazy body.
On 25th of April, 2015 a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal. The earthquake struck central Nepal. More than 8,000 people died and about 17,000 were injured. The earthquake was caused due to the movement of tectonic plates releasing built up strain energy, in the form of seismic waves. As Kathmandu is located right on top of the fault line between the plates, Kathmandu suffered most of the damages from this earthquake. About 75% of the buildings were destroyed leaving lots of Nepalese homeless. There were several aftershocks on the 26th of April and also on the 12th of May. According to the Red Cross, about 800,000 homes were destroyed. Many temples and historic monuments were destroyed which caused a long term effect on the tourism industry like Dharara, two temples in Patan Durbar Square, and many monuments were destroyed. The aftershock also caused many landslides and triggered an avalanche on Mount Everest.
The Gorkha earthquake caused a drastic impact on the economy of Nepal. At that time, the GDP of Nepal was only $20 billion and the estimated cost of damage was $10 billion which means Nepal had to depend on foreign aid to rebuild the economy. Due to the earthquake many industries, and offices were closed which also affected the economy. The tourism industry got affected the most as many historical sites were destroyed and many tourists were injured and some even died. Many people lost everything and suffered poverty. Many hospitals were destroyed leaving many injured people struggling to survive and lots of people couldn't get medical treatment.
During the time of the earthquake, people had to live in tents and had to eat junk food. Many people slept on the street as there were no other places to stay. During that time some people struggled to survive as the price of junk food was very high and there were no other ways to cook food. Robbers and human traffickers took advantage of the situation. The most affected were people from poor communities who lost their homes. The earthquake had many impacts on the environment. Many forests and farmlands were destroyed due to the earthquake. Many roads were cracked and destroyed due to which many areas were unable to get the help they needed.
About 90% soldiers from the Nepalese army were sent to the destroyed places and conducted rescue operations under the name Sankat Mochan. The soldiers saved many people who were stuck under destroyed buildings. Many other countries also helped Nepal to overcome the situation. Uk provided £33 million in aid which helped in buying food, water, shelter and medical supplies. Japan sent a search and rescue team and India provided 50 tons of water and medical supplies. Many rural areas were unreachable due to the condition of the road and had to use helicopters to reach there. The Red Cross provided 8000 volunteers to help rebuild homes and tents for people. Many Nepalese people restrained themselves as builders and helped in rebuilding the damaged infrastructure. UNICEF worked with the government to help people in rural areas and provided resources.

तिम्रो आँसु झर्दा आमा

माया गर्छ्याै मेरी आमा ।

Fighting my demons: a daily routine-
It started at twelve, and now I’m eighteen.
I tried to keep it to myself and succeeded-
For I lived afraid of being judged when seen.
I searched for an idol, an inspirator,
Hoping to be free of the dispute in my mind’s equator.
Instead, all I found was a dark empty space,
The further I went in, it seemed to be greater.
But I kept going forward hoping to see the light,
Reflecting on and regretting my past actions and the meaningless fights-
I had with myself trying to live up to expectations.
Only to find out, all I’m trying to do is make it past the night.
It didn’t help me, I mean my anxiety.
It only made it worse, and I kept on enduring quietly.
Started to think I was delusional and lost-
Because I never really experienced the true meaning of satiety.
Oh, I guess I deviated
Almost to talk about finding my idol,
But then my thoughts were mediated-
By doubts, about being judged by the people reading this;
That they’ll see my true self
And then they’ll grow to hate it.
Continuing back in the darkness deep-
In my mind I find a mirror, staring right back at me.
There it was, the truth, that-
Whoever it was that I hoped to be,
In the end it seems that
It was always me…
निश्चित छ विश्व विनाश ,
अनिश्चित छ यो जीवन ,
विश्वमा लाग्न सक्छ आगो ,
जसले जलाउने छ सृष्टिको धागो।
न म मर्छु, न म मार्न लगाउँछु ,
न म जित्छु, न म हार्न लगाउँछु।
न त म कम, न त म बढी ,
साँचाे के होला जीवनको कडी ?
केही गर्दिन म
खाली हात आएको छु
जन्तुहरू हराउँदै छन्
रुखहरू जल्दै छन् ।
पीडाको नदी बग्दै छ,
म यहाँ व्यवस्थाको
आगो जलाउँदै छु ।
मानिस उता मर्दै छन्,
म यहाँ गफ लडाउँदै छु,
खान नपाउने रुँदै छन्,
म हाँसी खुसी मनाउँदै छु ।
विनाशले भयङ्कर रूप लिँदै छ,
तीव्र गतिमा अघि बढिरहेकाे छ,
तर म रमिते बन्दै रमिता हेर्दै छु,
बन्धनले जता लग्यो, म त्यतै जाँदै छु ।
जीवनमा आमाको आँशुलाई मात्र हेरियाे
जति दुःख सङ्घर्षको गीत आमाकै लागि गाइयाे
सधैँ आमा आमा भन्दै कविताहरू पनि रचियाे
तर बाबाले गुनासा सुनिएन
म सोच्छु
यो बाबा शब्द सुन्दा वा भन्दा
जति सरल र सहज रहेछ
असल बाबाको परिचय दिन
निकै मुश्किल र दुःख रहेछ ।
एउटा सन्तान र परिवारको
जिम्मेवारी बहन गर्ने
अनि ती आँखाको आँसु सधै लुकाउने
बाबा साच्चिकै महान् रहेछन् ।
मैले बाबा ! आज चाहियोभन्दा
बेलुका घर आउँदा मैले चाहेकाे कुरा आयाे
मैले बाबासँग मागेकाे कुरा आयाे
अनि आफै सोच थिए कतै हाम्रो कारण
बाबा आफ्नाे खुसीबाट टाढा त हुनुहुन्न
बाबाले बेला बेला भनिरहने कुरा याद आउँछ
छोरी मेरो जीवन तिमीहरूकै लागि त हो
अनि मनमा नयाँ प्राण भरिन्थ्याे ।
आफ्ना आवश्यकतालाई ध्यान नदिएर
सन्तानकाे खुसीका लागि बाँच्ने र रमाउने
सन्तानका लागि बाँच्ने र कमाउने
मेरा बाबा महान् छन् ।
सादा जीवन उच्च विचारलाई व्यवहारमा उतार्ने
म हारेको बेला झुसिलिकिरा किरा भनी
फलेको किरा एक दिन पुतली बनेर उड्छ भनी सिकाउने
अनि सफलताकाे उडान भरिदिने मेरा बाबा महान् छन् ।
बाबा!
म हजुरको सपनालाई पूरा गर्न हरदम प्रयासरत छु,
देखेका सपना पूरा गर्ने नै छु
अब आशा यति छ कि
यो जुनीमा मात्र नभई ,
म हरेक जुनी हजुरकै छोरी भई जन्मिन पाऊँ ।
