meree rachanaa ke arth bahut hain
jo bhee tumase lag jaay lagaa lenaa
main geet luTaataa hoo(n) un logon par
duniyaa(n) men jinakaa kuchh aadhaar naheen
main aa(n)kh milaataa hoo(n) un aa(n)khon se
jinakaa koee bhee paharedaar naheen
aa(n)khon kee bhaaShaa to anagin hain
jo bhee sundar ho vah samajhaa denaa.
poojaa karataa hoo(n) us kamajoree kee
jo jeene ko majaboor kar rahee hai.
man oob rahaa hai ab is duniyaa se
jo mujhako tumase door kar rahee hai
dooree kaa dukh baḌhataa jaataa hai
jo bhee tumase ghaT jaae ghaTaa lenaa
kahataa hai mujh se uḌataa huaa dhu(n)aa
rukane kaa naam n le too chalataa jaa
sanket kar rahaa hai nabh vaalaa ghan
pyaase praaNon par mujh saa galataa jaa
par main pyaasaa hoo(n) maroosthal saa
yah baat samandar ko samajhaa denaa
chaa(n)danee chaḌhaataa hoo(n) un charaNon par
jo apanee raahen aap banaate hain
aavaaj lagaataa hoo(n) un geeton ko
jinako madhuvan men bhaunre gaate hain
madhuvan men soye geet hajaaron hai
jo bhee tumase jag jaae jagaa lenaa
