TooTan kee, ghuTan kee

saamaajik vivashataaon kee
jalatee huee hasaraton kee
bujhate hue vishvaas kee
ab naheen likhoo(n)gaa kavitaae(n) .

vaisee hee hogee meree kavitaae(n) .
aakaash men umaḌate-ghumaḌate
kaale-kaale baadal
kaundhatee bijaliyaa(n)
nav yugal ke komal tan par
rimajhim giratee phuhaaren
taru kee Daalee men ugate nae komal konpal
halke jaaḌe kee madhur siharan
dhu(n)dh chhaTe din men
chiḌiyon kaa neeche utar
daanaa chuganaa,
garmee ke dinon men
samundar men nahaanaa
kitanee jeevant hongee ye kavitaae(n)
aisee hee hogee meree kavitaae(n) .
bhaavanaae(n) aatur ho chalee
lagaa main mausam ko badal doo(n)gaa
man par lag rahee
avishvaas, anaitikataa aur
svaarthaparataa kee kaaee ko
khurach-khurach kar door kar doo(n)gaa
mavaad bhare jakhmon par
ThanDhe chandan kaa lep doo(n)gaa
thaap aur taal par
naachegaa yauvan

phudak-phudak gauraiye-saa
jan-man ko aahlaadit karengee meree kavitaae(n)
janahitaay hogee meree kavitaae(n) |

khabar sunane kee vivashataa
banTatee jaageer hee naheen
pyaar bhee hai ba(n)T rahaa
vah aa(n)soo naheen khoon thaa
peetee jo rahee hai maa(n) kee mamataa
baarood kee gandh men baiThakar
cheekhon aur ghabaraahaTo ke beech
kaise likhee jaa sakengee
komal-sparsh kee kavitaae(n) ?
alagaav, aatank, ghoTaalaa
kShat-vikShat pahachaan aur daman kaa bolabaalaa ;
baḌhaae(n)gee sisakatee shaktiyon kaa hausalaa
chhoTe se hRday men
pyaar ke kuchh shabd lekar
dvaar-dvaar ghoomengee meree kavitaae(n)
haa(n), vaisee hee hogee meree kavitaae(n) |
