Chand !

Chand mere ru ba ru hai !

Baaho.n mai.n bhar loo.n ki uske ,

Haath thaame jhoom loo.n mai.n ,

Balo.n se kheloo.n zaraa yaa -

Hoth uske choom loo.n mai.n

. . . . . . Sau tarh ki aarzu hai !

Daag par gardan ke uski ,

Nazar bahake betahaashaa,

Kandho.n ke dhalo.n ko kisne ,

Sangemarmar mai.n taraashaa .

. . . . Meethi mad_hoshi ki boo hai !

Seep mai.n moti si aankai.n,

Gaalo.n par surkhi hayaa ki ,

Hoth tharrate ki , hichaki ,

Dar ki bundo.n se chamkati .

. . . . . Jaisa sochaa hu ba hu hai !

Aankho.n mai.n uski hoo.n Jaise ,

Khwaab mai.n koi diwaanaa ,

Dhun pe uski dhadakano.n ke ,

Geet hoo.n koi puraana ,

. . . . Jwaar jaisa ek junoon hai !
