चिड़िया ने
अपनी चोंच में
जितना समाया
उतना पिया
उतना ही लिया,
सागर में जल
खेतों में दाना
बहुत था!
चिड़िया ने
घोंसला बनाया इतना
जिसमें समां जाए
जीवन अपना
संसार बहुत बड़ा था !
चिड़िया ने रोज
एक गीत गया
ऐसा जो
धरती और आकाश
सब में समाया
चिड़िया ने सदा सिखाया
एक लेना
देना सवाया !
Giving
The bird took
Only as much as its beak
Could hold;
It swallowed only
As much as it could drink.
Thus the grain in the field,
The water in the sea,
Remained enough and plenty.
The bird made its nest
Only as big
As its own body.
The world remained so big
And wide.
The bird sang a song
Each day
A song that
Filled the earth
And the sky.
The bird taught us;
Take less
And give plenty.
