क्यारी की आत्म कथा

subah savere dhale hain ghanere,
Diwaker Uda le gayen hain andhere;
kise khobsorat bageeche men ja ker,
kise khobsurat kyari mein dekho.
      
         Shaghan hare patton mein,
         kucha lalima hai ;
         peeli gulabi ,
         Shunahree shama hai .


Khili hai kali ,
Is khadee dopahar mein             
Tapi hai ye suraj ki
Ghanee aag mein .

         Tabhi to lubhon par subah muskurati,
         Huye sam jub to hai sukh jati !
         Par kya agale din soonee hai kyari ?
         Nayee fir khili hai kali aj pyaree .
