સાંજલ તારા! ગુણિયલ તારા! કે તુજ ઊગ્યે પંખીડલાં
— Jhaverchand Meghani
Meaning

Oh, star of evening! Oh, virtuous star! When you ascend, the little birds...

Explanation

This beautiful couplet paints a picture of the evening star, described as both "Saanjal Tara" (the evening star) and "Guniyal Tara" (the virtuous or good-natured star). It suggests that as this star rises, little birds ("Pankhidla") are inspired or respond to its appearance. It evokes a peaceful, natural scene where the arrival of the evening star signals a particular time of day, perhaps when birds return to their nests, filling the air with their gentle sounds as dusk settles. It's a simple, heartwarming observation of nature's rhythm.
