n jaane kyaa laachaaree hai
aaj man bhaaree-bhaaree hai

           hRday se kahataa hoo(n) kuchh gaa
           praaN kee peeḌit been bajaa
           pyaas kee baat n mu(n)h par laa

yahaa(n) to saagar khaaree hai
n jaane kyaa laachaaree hai
aaj man bhaaree-bhaaree hai

           surabhi ke svaamee phoolon par
           chaḌhaye mainne jab kuchh svar
           lage ve kahane murajhaakar

zindagee ek khumaaree hai
n jaane kyaa laachaaree hai
aaj man bhaaree-bhaaree hai

           naheen hai sudhi mujhako tan kee
           vyarth hai mujhako chumban bhee
           ajab haalat hai jeevan kee

mujhe behoshee pyaaree hai
n jaane kyaa laachaaree hai
aaj man bhaaree-bhaaree 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.
