Patjhad wala vriksh jangali,
madhyam isaki kaaya.
baag-bagichon, van-upawan ko,
isane khoob sajaaya.
Chhal tane ki ubad-khaabad,
moti gaanthon wala.
kaato to sabko deta hai,
bhoora gond nirala.
Aate hi mausam vasant ka,
phoolon se bhar jaata.
chhote-chhote guchchhon mein yah,
apna roop dikhata.
Dhawal, gulabi aur baingani,
isake phool nirale.
kabhi-kabhi dekhe ja sakte,
gahare rangon waale.
Madhur sugandhit phoolon se yah,
saara jag mehakaata.
fode-funsi, kodh, ghaav ko,
jad se door bhagaata.
