Shamshan Ghaat

Baat lagbhag 6 saal pahle ki hai,main aur mere mata-pita ji aur mere 2 bhai bahen gaanv mein rehte the hamare gaanv ka naam Dhodvapur hai ye Raibareli District  mein aata hai,

hamara ghar  gaanv se bahar tha jahan ek Shamshan Ghaat tha..

Hum sab chahe Garmi ho ya thand ghar ke bahar Chhappar mein hi sote the,

Ek baar ki baat hai mere Piaji kisi kaam se gaanv se bahar gye hue the main meri maa aur bahen vahin ghar pe hi the,

raat ko jab tarah tarah ki ajeeb si awazein sunayi deti thi jo ki aksar hi sunayi deti thi to maa kehti ki ye kuch nahi hai ye to ek chidiya (Bird) hai jo aisi awaaz karti hai.ye sun kar hum log ka darr door hi jaata tha aur humlog be-khauf ho kar aaram se so jaaya karte the lekin raat mein hamari maa hamari dekh bhaal ke liye soti kam aur jaagti zyaada thi..humein sab kuch Normal lagta tha lekin mere ptaji aur maa hamesha isghar ko change karne ki baatein kiya karte the lekin pitaji ke kaam ki vajah se aisa karna sambhav nahi tha.

jis raat pitaji bahar gye hue the to raat mein fir vahi awaazein sunayi di aur fir maa ne humein vahi batay jaisa vo hamesha batati thi ki vo chidiya (Birds) hain,aur hum so gye aur maa jag rhi  thi kuch der baad maa ki bhi aankh la gyi aur vo so gyi,

raat ko lagbhag ek baje maa ko laga jaise koi unke oopar zor zor se kood rha hai maa ekdum se ghabra gyi aur aankh kholi to saamne ek bilkul kaale (Black) rang ka ek bacha tha jo maa ke oopar kood rha tha maa ne chillana chaha lekin unki awaaz nahi nikal rhi thi fir maa ne jaldi se mann mein hi Hanuman Chalisa padhna shuru kiya aur aisa karte hi jo koi unke oopar kood rha tha vo door ja ke gira jaise hi vo gira maa ne zor se chillaya aur uss awaaz se meri aankh khul gyi maine dekha ki maa bohat dari hui hai aur zor zor se saansein le rhi hain,

Maine jaldi se maa ko pahle paani diya aur unka haath sehlaane laga kuch der baad jab maa Normal hui to maine poocha kya hua tha??

Unhone kaha ki koi bura sapna dekha tha aur mujhe sach nahi bataya aur kaha ab so jao,main bhi so jaati hun.

uss ghatna ke baad 2-3 saal tak hum vahin rahe fir mere piataji ne doosri jagah kaam start kar diya aur hum sab Kanpur mein rehne lage tab ek din maa ne mujhe uss raat  ki aur uss ghar ki sab baatein sach sach batayi aur kaha vo sapna nahi tha haqeeqat thi..

Hum sabhi ye sun kar shock reh gye ki hum bhooton ke beech rehte the...
