maian chho d, priye ! tumako, mathuramean aya.
tumapar dukh ati ghanaghor ghata ban chhaya॥
tum pratipal man-hi-man ho avirat roti.
mithya hi khati, mithya nidra soti॥
tum ek palak bhi nahian chain chit pati.
aandar-hi-aandar ghulati nit bilakhati॥
bhitar jo bhishan agri tumhare jalati.
vah bina jalaye nahian kisi se talati॥
chhoo jay kisi ki vritti bhoolase jakar.
jal jati vah bhi tap bhayanak pakar॥
tum pi da antar ki n kisi se kahati.
oopar se hansati-si dukh darun sahati॥
maian jan gaya yah duahkh tumhara, pyari !
hai bhadaq uthi isase ur jvala bhari॥
tha pahalese hi ati viyog-dukh dussah.
ab donoan ne milakar dhar di tah-par-tah॥
meri kya dasha tumhean, pyari ! batalaooan.
kaise bhishan santap tumhean dikhalaooan॥
badh rahi sudarun pal-pal ur ki jvala.
hai pahani jalate aangaroan ki mala॥
