Summary In Hindi
यह कविता एक मुस्कान के बारे में है। एक मुस्कान चेहरे पर छोटी-छोटी झुर्रियां ला देती है। लेकिन यह अपने आप कहाँ चली जाती है कोई नहीं जानता। मुस्कान की एक आवश्यक विशेषता यह है कि यदि कोई मुस्कराता है तो दूसरा भी मुस्कराता है तथा एक मुस्कराहट कई मुस्कराहटों को एक साथ पैदा करती है।
Hindi Translation Of The Poem
1. A smile is quite a funny thing,
It wrinkles up your face.
And when it’s gone
You’ll never find
Its secret hiding place.
But far more wonderful it is
To see what smiles can do.
You smile at one,
He smiles at you,
And so one smile
makes two.
मुस्कान बहुत ही सुखद चीज़ है इससे
तुम्हारे चेहरे पर झुर्रियाँ पड़ जाती हैं और
जब ये चली जाती हैं तो तुम्हें जरा भी
पता नहीं चलता कि इनके छिपने की जगह
कौन-सी है।।
किंतु इससे भी आश्चर्यजनक बात यह
देखने में है कि मुस्कान क्या कर सकती है।
तुम किसी पर मुस्कराते हो तो वह भी तुम
पर मुस्कराता है। और इस तरह से एक
मुस्कान दो मुस्कान में बदल जाती है।
