kal maanasoon kee pahalee barasaat huee
aur aaj yah daravaaj़aa
kh़ushee se phool gayaa hai
khiD़kee daravaaj़e mahaj़ lakaD़ee naheen
visthaapit jangal hote hain
mujhe lagaa, main peD़on ke beech se aataa-jaataa hoon
Tahaniyon par baiThataa hoon
peD़on kee khokhal men rakhataa hoon kitaaben
main jangal men ghiraa hoon
kinvadantiyon men rahane vaalaa
aadim kh़ushaboo se bharaa jangal
kal mausam kee pahalee baarish huee
aur aaj yah daravaaj़aa
chaukhaT men phansane lagaa hai
vah band honaa naheen chaahataa
Theek darakh़ton kee tarah
ek kaTe hue jism men
peD़ kaa kh़oon phir dauD़ne lagaa hai
aur yah daravaaj़aa
kho gayaa hai bachapan kee baarishon men:
vah smRtiyon men aaj phir haraa huaa hai.
