Chapter 2 Gone with the Scooter

Hindi Translationगर्मी की दोपहर थी। गोपी बरामदे में बैठकर एक किताब पढ़ रहा था।
अचानक, उसे बगीचे में किसी चीज़ की सरसराहट और फिर धड़ाम से गिरने की आवाज़ सुनाई दी। उसने सोचा कि यह क्या हो सकता है। शायद, पेड़ से कोई आम गिरा हो। गोपी ने तुरंत अपनी किताब एक तरफ रखी, उठा और बगीचे में भागा।

It was a summer afternoon. Gopi was sitting in the veranda, reading a book.
Suddenly, he heard something rustling past and falling with a thud in the garden. He wondered what it could be. Perhaps, it was a mango falling from the tree. Immediately, Gopi put his book aside, got up, and ran into the garden.

Hindi Translationउसने बगीचे की बाड़ के पास घनी घास के बीच में खोजा। लेकिन, उसे कुछ नहीं मिला। उसने झाड़ियों के बीच देखा। वहाँ भी कुछ नहीं था। तभी, उसकी नज़र सूखे पत्तों के एक ढेर पर पड़ी। ढेर पर एक सफ़ेद गेंद थी। गोपी ने हाथ बढ़ाकर गेंद को अपने हाथों में ले लिया। यह एक हॉकी की गेंद थी।
He searched in between the thick grass near the garden fence. But, he found nothing. He looked among the bushes. Nothing was there again. Then, his eyes fell on a heap of dry leaves. There was a white ball on the heap. Gopi reached out and took the ball in his hands. It was a hockey ball.

Hindi Translationगोपी ने सोचा, “यह गेंद किसकी हो सकती है?” उसने चारों ओर देखा, और गेट के बाहर झाँका, लेकिन कोई दिखाई नहीं दिया। तभी उसे अपनी माँ की आवाज़ सुनाई दी। “गोपी! तुम बगीचे में क्या कर रहे हो? बहुत गर्मी है। अंदर आ जाओ।”
Gopi wondered. Whose ball Could this be?” He looked around, and peeped outside the gate, but Could see no one, Just then he heard his mother calling. “Gopi! What are you doing out in the garden? It’s very hot. Come inside.”

Hindi Translationगोपी अंदर गया और एक गिलास पानी पिया। वह चटाई पर लेट गया और खुद से कहा, “मैं इस गेंद को अपने पास नहीं रख सकता। मैं आसपास पूछूँगा।” शाम को, गोपी पास के खेल के मैदान में गया जहाँ उसके सभी दोस्त नियमित रूप से हॉकी खेलने के लिए इकट्ठा होते थे।
Gopi went inside, and drank a glass of water. He lay down on the mat, and said to himself. “I can’t keep this ball for myself. I will ask around. In the evening, Gopi went to the nearby playground where all his friends regularly gathered to play hockey.

Hindi Translation“दोस्तों, आज दोपहर मुझे एक गेंद मिली है। क्या तुममें से किसी की गेंद हाल ही में खोई है?” मनोज ने कहा, “मेरी एक गेंद चार महीने पहले खो गई थी।” गोपी ने कहा, “तो, जो गेंद मुझे मिली है, वह तुम्हारी नहीं हो सकती।”
रमाणी ने कहा, “तो फिर वह गेंद मेरी है।”
“तुम्हें कैसे पता?” गोपी ने पूछा। “उसका रंग क्या है?” “तुम मुझे गेंद दिखाओ और मैं तुम्हें बता दूँगा,” रमाणी ने मुस्कुराते हुए कहा।
“Friends, this afternoon I found a ball. Did any of you lose your ball recently?” Manoj said, “I lost a ball four months ago. Gopi said, “So, the ball that I found cannot be yours.”
Ramani said, “Then the ball is mine.”
“How do you know?’ asked Gopi. “What colour is it?” “Show me the ball and I will tell you,” said Ramani smilingly.

Hindi Translationएक और दोस्त दीपक ने शेखी बघारी कि उसके पिता ने पिछले ही दिन उसे एक एकदम नई फुटबॉल खरीदकर दी है। “जो गेंद मुझे मिली है वह हॉकी की गेंद है,” गोपी ने कहा। सब हँस पड़े। गोपी ने अपनी जेब से गेंद निकाली। मनोज ने उसे झपट लिया और दीपक की ओर उछाल दिया।
यह देखकर, गोपी ऊँची आवाज़ में बोला, “रुको! मैंने कहा, रुको! चलो अँधेरा होने से पहले खेलते हैं।”
Another friend Deepak boasted that his father had bought him a brand-new football the previous day. “The ball I found is a hockey ball,” said Gopi. Everyone laughed. Gopi took out the ball from his pocket. Manoj grabbed it and tossed it over to Deepak.
Seeing this, Gopi said at the top of his voice, “Stop! I say, stop! Let’s play before it gets dark.”

Hindi Translationमनोज गोलपोस्ट पर चला गया क्योंकि उसे गोलकीपर बनना पसंद था। गोपी हॉकी स्टिक पकड़े मैदान के बीच में खड़ा हो गया। उसने गेंद दीपक को पास की, जिसने गेंद को रमाणी की ओर बढ़ाया। रमाणी ने स्टिक से गेंद को ड्रिबल किया और वह जय के पास चली गई।
“चलो जय, शॉट मारो और इसे गोलपोस्ट की तरफ भेजो,” मनोज ने ज़ोर से कहा।
Manoj went to the goalpost as he liked to be a goalkeeper. Gopi stood at the centre of the field holding the hockey stick. He passed the ball to Deepak, who drove the ball towards Ramani. Ramani dribbled the ball with the stick and it went to Jay.
“Come on Jay, play the shot and drive it towards the goalpost, Manoj said loudly.

Hindi Translationजय ने स्टिक पर अपनी कलाई कसी, और उसका चपटा हिस्सा गेंद को छू रहा था। उसने गेंद को इतनी ज़ोर से मारा कि वह खेल के मैदान के गेट को पार कर गई और पास से गुज़र रहे एक स्कूटर की टोकरी में जा गिरी।
स्कूटर वाला, जो इस बात से अनजान था कि क्या हुआ है, आगे बढ़ गया। जब तक बच्चे दौड़कर गेट तक पहुँचे, तब तक स्कूटर जा चुका था… और उसके साथ गेंद भी। उन्होंने एक-दूसरे को देखा और ठहाका मारकर हँस पड़े।
Jay tightened his wrist around the stick with the flat side touching the ball. He hit the ball so hard that it went past the playground gate and fell into the basket of a passing scooter.
The Scooterist who was unaware of what had happened, drove past. By the time the children ran to the gate, the scooter was gone… and so was the ball. They looked at each other and burst into laughter.
