Hindustani Poetry: Baadal
Inki maujoodgi ek khushi ki lehar
kaaley ghanney laatey hain kehar.
Hawa se baatein karte
log dekh kar aahein bharte.
Safar karna to hai inka andaz
aa jaayein to hota hai baarish ka aaghaaz.
Zindigiyon main jhaakne aaye hon jaise
chuuo to bahut halke hotay hain waise.
Zameen ko tarr karna inki fitrut
koi kaise karey innse nafrut.
Zarra zarra jab yeh barsein aur bheeg jaaye
har koi khushnuma sa gaana gaaye.
Rooth jaayein to aakaal
khush huay to sab khushaal.
Neymut hain jaise koi dua
barsein to khush ruaa ruaa.
Safed paak se
jhoomey har koi innse.
Inko koi lagaam laga nhi saka
innke jaisa koi ho nahin saka aisa inka sikka.
