chaparaasee ya klark jab karana pade talaash,
poochha jaata- kya padhe, kaun klaas ho paas?
kaun klaas ho paas, vivaahit ho ya kvaare?
shaamil rahate ho ya maat-pita se nyaare?
kah ‘kaaka’ kavi, chhaan-been kaafee kee jaatee,
saath siphaarish ho, tab hee sarvis mil paatee.
karmachaariyon ke lie, hain anek duhkh-dvandv,
netaajee ke vaaste, ek nahin pratibandh.
ek nahin pratibandh, manch par jhaaden lakchar,
vaise unako bhains baraabar kaala akshar.
kah ‘kaaka’, darshan karava sakata hoon pyaare,
em. el. e. kaee, ‘angootha chhaap’ hamaare.
