saanjh Dhalate Dhalate mere padachaap le gaee
meree jholee men gulamohar v babool ke phool de gaee
tumhaaree yaad aaee to bheegee palakon kee jagah
neele aasamaan kee gaharaaee de gaee

tumako pakaḌane chalee thee o soory

apanee oT men le baiThee tumhe
aaj tumhaare
alasaae aavaraN ko nihaarane chalee
to raat kee kaalimaa
apane aalingan men le chalee mujhe.

khulatee jaatee hain paraten is andhere kee
ki shaayad koee subah lauT aae
har roz bahaanaa banaa use manaa laate hain
ki shaayad vo hee khvaab ban
meree neendon men lauT aae

aakaar jab dhu(n)dhale ho jaate hain
to rango ko bulaa laate hain
shaayad vo hee
meree toolikaa ban
meree tasveer banaa jaae.

yah saa(n)jh jaate hue booḌhee aa(n)khon ko phir
sunaharaa aakaash dikhaa jaatee hai
apanee muThThee men a(n)dhere ko sameTate hue
juganoo kee chamak dikhaa jaatee hai
chehare kee jhurriyon men kahaaniyaa(n) likh kar
nayaa itihaas banaa jaatee hai
aane vaale kee khoj men main hoo(n) yaa naheen
booḌhee aa(n)khen Dhalate sooraj se poochh jaatee hain
kitanee paribhaaShaaon se yah vartamaan banaa hai
isakaa vishleShaN sharad Rtu kee poorNimaa par
chhoḌ jaatee hai.
