Ghazal
નીંદર-દરિયે
This ghazal beautifully portrays the transition from day to night, where the setting sun metaphorically drowns in a 'sea of sleep' only to re-emerge as the moon in the lake of dreams. It speaks of the serene silence of night, offering a gentle escape from the day's burdens with a cool, fragrant solace.

સૂરજ નીંદર – દરિયે ડૂબ્યો!
શમણાંને સરવરિયે પાછો ચાંદ થઈને ઊગ્યો!
The sun, in slumber, drowned in the sea; for dreams, in the pond, it rose again as the moon!

પંખીઓના ટહૌકા સૂતા વૃક્ષ – ડાળને માળે :
તારલિયાની કશી ગુફતગુ મૌનતણે અજવાળે.
The birds' calls sleep in their nests on the tree branches:A hushed discourse of the stars in the light of silence.

રાતરાણીની પાસે જઈને એક્કી શ્વાસે મૂક્યો!
લૂ દાઝ્યા લોચનિયે શીતળ સુગંધની શી છાલક :
Going to the night-queen, in a single breath, it was uttered!Ah, what a splash of cool fragrance for eyes scorched by the hot wind!

સુખ-વ્યાકુલ અંતરને કનડે તોફાની આ ટાઢક.
લળી લળીને દિશા દિશાથી
This turbulent coolness afflicts the heart, restless even in its comfort.Bending and swaying, from every direction it approaches.
