madhur madhur mere dipak jal !
yug yug pratidin pratixan pratipal,
priyatam kaa path aalokit kar !
saurabh phailaa vipul dhup ban,
mr^idul mom saa ghul re mr^idu tan;
de prakaash kaa sindhu aparimit,
tere jivan kaa anu anu gal !
pulak pulak mere dipak jal !
saare shital komal nutan
maang rahe tujhase jvaalaa-kan
vishva-shalabh sir dhun kahataa 'mai
haay na jal paayaa tujh me mil' !
sihar sihar mere dipak jal !
jalate nabh me dekh asakhyak,
snehahin nit kitane dipak;
jalamaya saagar kaa ur jalataa,
vidyut le ghirataa hai baadal !
vihans vihans mere dipak jal !
drum ke ag harit komalatam,
jvaalaa ko karate hr^idayagam;
vasudhaa ke jad atar me bhi,
bandi hai taapo ki halachal !
bikhar bikhar mere dipak jal !
meri nishvaaso se drutatar,
subhaga na tu bujhane kaa bhay kar
mai anchal ki ot kiye hun,
apani mr^idu palako se chachal !
sahaj sahaj mere dipak jal !
simaa hi laghutaa kaa badhan,
hai anaadi tu mat ghadiyaan gin;
mai dr^ig ke axay kosho se
tujh me bharati hun aansu jal !
sajal sajal mere dipak jal !
tama asim teraa prakaash chir,
khelege nava khel niratar;
tama ke anu anu me vidyut saa
amit chitra akit karataa chal !
saral saral mere dipak jal !
tu jal jal jitanaa hotaa xaya,
vah samip aataa chhalanaamaya;
madhur milan me mit jaanaa tu
usaki ujjvala smita me ghul khil !
mandir mandir mere dipak jal !
priyatama kaa path aalokit kar !
Nostalgic! Got reminded of this popular poem of Mahadevi Verma today, and
so glad to hear it in the musical form after a long time. Kudos to
Mahadeviji for such exquisite poetry, and also to Jaidev, and Asha Bhonsle
for turning it into a precious, precious musical piece. Many thanks for
uploading it.
