Jaag Ri
Beeti Vibhavari Jaag Ri
Ambar Panghat Mein Bhigo Rahi Hai --
Taraghat Usha Nagri
Khag Kul Kul-kul Sa Bol Raha,
Kislaya Ka Anchal Dol Raha Hai,
Lo Yeh Latika Bhi Bhar Layi --
Madhu Mukul Naval Ras Gagri
Adharon Mein Rag Amand Piye,
Alkon Mein Malyaj Band Kiye,
Too Abtak Soyi Hai Aali --
Ankhon Mein Bhare Vihag Ri
-Jai Shankar Prasad
Pushp Ki Abhilasha
Chah Nahin Mai SurBala Ke
Gehnon Mein Guntha Jaaon
Chah Nahin Premi Mala Mein
Bindh, Pyari Ko Lalchaon
Chah Nahin Samraton Ke
Shav Par, He Hari Dala Jaaon
Chah Nahin Devon Ke Sar Par
Chadhon, Bhagya Par Itraoon
Mujhey Tod Lena Banmali,
Us Path Par Tum Dena Phaink
Matra Bhoomi Per Sheesh Chadhaney,
Jis Path Jaayen Veer Anek

Now, in his own handwriting

Hi Vandy,
ReplyDeleteHow much I would have liked to write in devnagiri, but it would take a lot of effort :-)
But yes, it's a nice idea though I am not sure I will be able to do it :-(
