bhaarateey itihaas ka, keeje anusandhaan
dev-danuj-kinnar sabhee, kiya somaras paan
kiya somaras paan, piyen kavi, lekhak, shaayar
jo isase bach jaaye, use kahate hain kaayar
kahan kaaka, kavi bachchan ne peekar do pyaala
do ghante mein likh daalee, pooree madhushaala
bhedabhaav se mukt yah, kya ooncha kya neech
ahiraavan peeta ise, peeta tha maareech
peeta tha maareech, svarn- mrg roop banaaya
peekar ke raavan seeta jee ko har laaya
kahan kaaka kaviraay, sura kee karo na ninda
madhu peekar ke meghanaad pahuncha kishkindha
thela ho ya jeep ho, athava motarakaar
tharra peekar chhod do, assee kee raftaar
assee kee raftaar, nashe mein puny kamao
jo aage aa jaaye, svarg usako pahunchao
pakaden yadi saarjent, sipaahee dyootee vaale
ludhaka do unake bhee munh mein, do chaar piyaale
pooree botal gatakiye, hoy brahm ka gyaan
naalee kee boo, itr kee khushaboo ek samaan
khushaboo ek samaan, ladkhadaatee jab jihva
dibba kahana chaahen, nikale munh se dibba
kahan kaaka kaviraay, ardh-unmeelit ankhiyaan
munh se bahatee laar, bhinabhinaatee hain makhiyaan
prem-vaasana rog mein, sura rahe anukool
saindil-chappal-jootiyaan, lagateen jaise phool
lagateen jaise phool, dhool jhad jaaye sir kee
buddhi shuddh ho jaaye, khule akkal kee khidakee
prajaatantr mein bita rahe kyon jeevan feeka
bano piyakkadachand, svaad lo aazaadee ka
ek baar madraas mein dekha josh-kharosh
bees piyakkad mar gaye, tees huye behosh
tees huye behosh, dava dee jaane kaisee
ve bhee sab mar gaye, davaee ho to aisee
cheef sivil sarjan ne kes kar diya disamis
post maartam hua, pet mein nikalee vaarnish
