“The Spinning Top”

Posted on 4 July 20251 March 2026 By Mahendrakumar Singh 4 Comments on “The Spinning Top”

In wild, playful hands it swings—
Just guess whose hands do such things?

Not in mine, nor held by thee ,
It’s ruled by children , wild and free.

They clutch the string, they wind it right,
They fling the top, hit the ground with all their might.

With one quick pull, the thread unwinds,
It spins and spins, the game ascends.

Wide-eyed, the little ones all cheer,
Watching it whirl, far and near.

The top goes twirling round and round,
Teaching lessons without a sound.

Some learn and grow, wise and tall,
While some stay childlike through it all.

With claps and shouts, the children play,
And make the top dance all the way.

Just like that, with cheer and clap,
Someone makes the world spin in their trap.

“लट्टू”

है मस्त फिरंगी हाथों में,
बोलो तो किसके हाथों में?

ना मेरे है, ना तेरे हैं,
बस बच्चों के ही हाथों में।

लट्टू को हाथों में लेकर,
जब बच्चा हाँथ लगाता है,

रस्सी लेता, डोरी लेता,
लट्टू को फेंक घुमाता है।

रस्सी खींचे, लट्टू नीचे,
लट्टू यूँ नाच नचाता है।

मस्त-मस्त बच्चे देखें,
सरपट नाच नचाते हैं।

तेज़ नाचता यह लट्टू,
दुनिया को सीख सिखाता है।

कुछ सीख चुके इंसान बने,
कुछ बच्चों जैसे भोले हैं।

करतल-ध्वनि दे-दे बच्चे,
लट्टू को नाच नचाते हैं।

ऐसी ही करतल-ध्वनि देकर,
कोई दुनिया को नचवाता है।

  • How to check, what I discard. How to relish, what I want. How to mind, the mind that rides. How to meet the sub - conscious mind. The mind that flies and lies beneath the layers. If I get it, I can head it. I get it but fail to control it. O 'Almighty - The First Cause. Show me the way to surpass. The life is shaped, as we shape. If we mar it, it mars us. If we love it, it loves us. Life reflects, it's our reflection.
