     तृण तृण को नभ सींच रहा था बूँद बूँद रस देकर,
     बढ़ा रहा था सुख की नौका समय समीरण खेकर ।

     tŕṇ tŕṇ ko nabh sī̃c rahā thā bū̃d bū̃d ras dekar,
     baṛhā rahā thā sukh kī naukā samay samīraṇ khekar .

     The sky was watering each blade of grass, giving it juice drop by drop;
     Time was driving ahead the boat of happiness by rowing the wind.
