खिड़की पर बूँदों की थिरकन सरगोशियाँ है करती
कभी धीरे-धीरे थाप दे कर, तो कभी घुँघरूओं की तेज झंकार सी।
कभी दस्तक देती हैं बेतहाशा, ढूँढती हैं मुझे
तो कभी आगाह करती हैं कि बारिश है तेज।
सराबोर करें कभी मेरे दिल का प्याला
इक हूक सी उठे और मन हो बावला।
तमाम रात चला बूँदों का रक्स
वाह-वाह करते रहे झूमते दरख्त।
भीगता ही रहा मेरा शहर दिन भर
दिलों में मलाल बरकरार रहा पर।
बूँद-बूँद कर बस पिघलता रहा आसमान
रिसता रहा गम, दिल था कुछ पशेमान।
आँखों के अश्क बह गए बारिश की ओट में
सिसकियाँ दब गई बादलों की गर्जन में।
वो जो चली एक बूँद छोड़ अपना ठिकान
वो तो बस ढूँढ रही थी मेरा ही मकान।
मैं तो बूँद सी बस छलकती ही रहूँ
प्यार हूँ मैं, बस बरबस बरसती रहूँ।
I apologize to my non-Hindi friends for my inability to translate these couplets on rain. I did try but the essence was lost. 🙏🏼

I used my translation app, and I adored this line
“The tears of the eyes were swept away by the rain in
the thunder of clouds.”
Thank you for sharing Punam xx

This was beautifully done. And I agree, translations just don’t bring the same essence in them.

किसी बारिश की तरह आ जाओ तुम,
कि उस वस्ल के पर्दे में जी भरके रोना हैं।
बूंदें इज़हार ए इश्क जैसे ज़मीन से हैं करती
मुझे भी अब तबाह होकर तुझमें खोना हैं।

I did google translate as well and I thought it came out beautifully! The first line read “There are snickers of drops on the window..” I don’t know if that is how you meant it but I am convinced that what you wrote is a gorgeous piece of work in any language! ❤️❤️

I think it might be hard to translate something you wrote yourself since you know what you mean and want to say. Your poetic prowess even overcomes Google’s impartial algorithms!
