Phool Nahin Badle Guldaston Ke

TooTe aasteen kaa baTan
yaa kurte kee khule sivan
kadam-kadam par mauke, tumhen yaad karane ke.
        phool naheen badale guladaston ke
        dhool mejaposh par jamee huee.
        jahaa(n)-tahaa(n) paḌee das kitaabon par
        ghanee sau udaasiyaa(n) thamee huee.
por-por TooTataa badan
kuchh kahane-sunane kaa man
kadam-kadam par mauke, tumhen yaad karane ke.
        arase se badalaa roomaal naheen
        chaabhee kyaa jaane rakh dee kahaa(n).
        darpaN par sindooree rekh naheen
        cheez naheen milatee rakh do jahaa(n).
chauk kee dhuaa(n)tee ghuTan
sugge kee sumirinee raTan
kadam-kadam par mauke, tumhen yaad karane ke.
        kise paḌee, machhalee-see taḌap jaae
        gaal shev karane men chhil gayaa.
        tumane jo kalam ek ropee thee
        usamen pahalaa gulaab khil gayaa.
patr kee prateekShaa ke kShaN
shahad kee sharaab kee chubhan
kadam-kadam par mauke, tumhen yaad karane ke.
