Jab Neend Naheen Aatee Hogee

kyaa tum bhee sudhi se thake praaN le-lekar akulaatee hogee!
                       jab neend naheen aatee hogee!
dinabhar ke kaary-bhaar se thak jaataa hogaa joohee-saa tan,
shram se kumhalaa jaataa hogaa mRdu kokaabelee-saa aanan.
lekar tan-man kee shraanti paḌee hogee jab shayyaa par chanchal,
kis marm-vedanaa se krandan karataa hogaa prati rom vikal
aa(n)khon ke ambar se dheere-se os Dhulak jaatee hogee!
                       jab neend naheen aatee hogee!
jaise ghar men deepak n jale le vaisaa andhakaar tan men,
amaraaee men bole n pikee le vaisaa soonaapan man men,
saathee kee Doob rahee naukaa jo khaḌaa dekhataa ho taT par -
usakee-see liye vivashataa tum rah-rah jalatee hogee kaatar.
tum jaag rahee hogee par jaise duniyaa so jaatee hogee!
                       jab neend naheen aatee hogee!
ho chhalak uThee nirjan men kaalee raat avash jyon anajaane,
chhaayaa hogaa vaisaa hee bhayakaaree ujaḌaapan sirahaane,
jeevan kaa sapanaa TooT gayaa - chhooTaa aramaanon kaa sahachar,
ab sheSh naheen hogee praaNon kee kShubdh rulaaee jeevan bhar!
kyon soch yahee tum chintaakul apane se bhay khaatee hogee?
                       jab neend naheen aatee hogee!

prem kavitaa, kahaaniyaa(n) aur ph़ilmen
jahaa(n) tak le jaa sakatee hain
main gayaa hoo(n) usake paar
kaee baar.
ik ajeeb-see bechainee hotee hai vahaa(n)
jee karataa hai thaam loo(n) koee cheej
koee haath, koee sahaaraa.
main Tik naheen paataa vahaa(n) der tak.

'Swatantrataa Kaa Deepak'
Gopalsingh Nepali

ghor andhakaar ho, chal rahee bayaar ho,
aaj dvaar dvaar par yah diyaa bujhe naheen.
yah nisheeth kaa diyaa laa rahaa vihaan hai.

shakti kaa diyaa huaa, shakti ko diyaa huaa,
bhakti se diyaa huaa, yah svatantrataadiyaa,
ruk rahee n naav ho, zor kaa bahaav ho,
aaj gangadhaar par yah diyaa bujhe naheen!
yah svadesh kaa diyaa praaN ke samaan hai!

'Yuddh Kee Vibheeshikaa'
Gajendra Singh

yuddh agar anivaary hai socho samaraangaN kaa kyaa hogaa?
aise hee chalataa rahaa samar to naee phasal kaa kyaa hogaa?

har or dhue(n) ke baadal hain, har or aag ye phailee hai.
bachapan kee aa(n)khen bhayaakraant, khaNDahar ghar, dharatee mailee hai.
chhaayaa nabh men kaalaa patajhaḌ, kho gayaa kahaa(n) neelaa manjar?
jharanon kaa gaanaa thaa kal tak, par aaj maut kee railee hai.

kilakaaree bharate ..
