Vatayan

Vatayan ke adhron par bujh Jane ko tatpar baithi,

Trishna me piche bhaag chali,

Kyu hast prasare tu lauti,

Khilkhilate dasno me bimbit,

Patjhado ka ek wan,

Mukti ke sambal tere,

Man par hua haavi kyun tan?

Tam me tera aalok nasht,

Gaan bhavi siskiyon ki godh me,

Bikharti jeevan Sudha alasya kuch pramod me,

Is vriksha se us vriksha tak,

Thi neer ki awali bani,

Tinka bhi chuta hast se,

Ab haaye kyun pagli bani?
