dhoop

chalo
ke dhoop nikal aayi hai
kirno ki payal pehne
badlon ke peeche se jhankti
hare patton mein khilkhilati
keh rahi hai tumse
bohat bheeg liye tum
sawan ke is mausam mein
thoda roshni mein bhi naha lo
to dhul jaye gard andheron ki

come
that sunshine has arrived
wearing an anklet of rays
watching from behind the clouds
smiling in the green leaves
is saying
enough you have drenched
in this time of monsoon
now, come bath in the light too
let the dirt of darkness wash away
