Deepika
Pyari si, meri nanhi (friend) pari
Neel-gagan me tairti megh-mrig-shavika
Ya dharaa par utarti koi neel-pari
Kesh jaise Benaras par utarti saanjh
Aankhe jaise jheel me tairti deep-pankti
Maadak haala jaise laal raseele adhar
Madhu-smit adharo se jhankti dhawal dant-pankti
Pratimaan saundarya ke sab ho gaye purane
Kahan khoju misaal tumhare is deept roop kee
Adwiteey ho tum, tumhara rang, tumhara roop
Tum samaan hi ho tum, tumsa koi nahi.
Gopal Prasad Mittal
