श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना
संजय उवाच – सार्थक
एक बात और, यदि जीवन में कभी भी, किसी भी पड़ाव पर मृत्यु आ सकती है तो किसी भी पड़ाव पर जीवन आरंभ क्यों नहीं हो सकता? इसीलिए कहा है,
कदम उठे,
यात्रा बनी,
साँसें खर्च हुईं
अनुभव संचित हुआ,
कुछ दिया, कुछ पाया
अर्द्धचक्र पूर्ण हुआ,
भूमिकाएँ बदलीं-
शेष साँसों को
पाथेय कर सको
तो संचय सार्थक है
अन्यथा
श्वासोच्छवास व्यर्थ है..!
ध्यान रहे, जीवन में वर्ष तो हरेक जोड़ता है पर वर्षों में जीवन बिरला ही फूँकता है। आपका बिरलापन प्रस्फुटन के लिए प्रतीक्षारत है।

English Version by – Captain Pravin Raghuvanshi
If death can come
at any stage of life,
then why can’t life
begin at any stage?
Steps were taken,
The journey was made,
Breaths were consumed,
Experience was accumulated,
Something was given,
Something was received…
The semi-circle got completed,
Roles got reversed
If you can make the
remaining breaths
worth journeying,
Then only,
accumulation is worthwhile,
Else,
Breathing is futile..!
Remember,
Everyone adds years to life,
but only a few
breathe life into years.
Your rarity
is waiting to blossom…!
~ Pravin Raghuvanshi
