ratri

ek sunhri raat ka chitra
manav man ko bhaye
sury dubne ke baad hi
raat ki kali ghta chhye

ratri ke samay
jb gramy jeevn ho purn shant
ghar par atishay sukh paaye
khet se lauta kisan

din bhar ki bhag daur me
jb man sarir clant ho jaye
tb ratri ke samay hi
vo thoda sa sukh paaye

raatri ke samay aakash ki dasha
manoram hi rahti hai
aasman me taro ki ek
dhudhli dhara si bahti hai

chand bhi hota pure sabaab pr
premi jan bhi dhya lgate chandni pr
chkor bhi chhkkr kata hai
us anokhe chand ka

nisha syah chadr se
jb dhara dhk si jaye
tb hi es dhra pr
kumudni ka pusp muskurata najar aaye

jhimil sitaro ko dekh dekh kr
maanav man harsaay
chand ke saundry pr man
prsnnta se muskuraay
