baadal

shor machāte uTThe bādal

zor lagāte uTThe bādal

ab haiñ gore ab haiñ kaale

ab haiñ laal aur ab maTiyāle

kyā kyā rang badalte aa.e

pal meñ hāthī pal meñ gaay

pal meñ ruuī kā ik Dher

pal meñ bakrī pal meñ sher

abhī thā paao ab hai ser

abhī thā tītar abhī baTer

ab ik saqqa mashk uThā.e

ab kashtī sī dauḌī jaa.e

daraḳht abhī thā ye pīpal kā

aur ab hai ye phuul kañval kā

abhī abhī thī saañp kī chhatrī

dhuul hai ab ye atom bam kī

uuñT thā ab kohān uThā.e

ab hai kuttā kaan uThā.e

pal meñ dauḌ lagātā ghoḌā

puurā nahīñ par thoḌā thoḌā

ghoḌā pighlā ban gayā bagulā

bagulā phail ke bail meñ badlā

bail ik meñDak se Takrāyā

bādal kā meñDak Tarrāyā

ye sun kar nanhā chillāyā

bādal aayā bādal aayā

shor machate uTThe baadal

zor lagate uTThe baadal

ab hain gore ab hain kale

ab hain lal aur ab maTiyale

kya kya rang badalte aae

pal mein hathi pal mein gay

pal mein rui ka ek Dher

pal mein bakri pal mein sher

abhi tha pao ab hai ser

abhi tha titar abhi baTer

ab ek saqqa mashk uThae

ab kashti si dauDi jae

daraKHt abhi tha ye pipal ka

aur ab hai ye phul kanwal ka

abhi abhi thi sanp ki chhatri

dhul hai ab ye atom bam ki

unT tha ab kohan uThae

ab hai kutta kan uThae

pal mein dauD lagata ghoDa

pura nahin par thoDa thoDa

ghoDa pighla ban gaya bagula

bagula phail ke bail mein badla

bail ek meinDak se Takraya

baadal ka meinDak Tarraya

ye sun kar nanha chillaya

baadal aaya baadal aaya
