batukadatt se kah rahe, latukadatt aachaary
suna? roos mein ho gaee hai hindee anivaary
hai hindee anivaary, raashtrabhaasha ke chaacha-
banane vaalon ke munh par kya pada tamaacha
kahan ‘kaaka’, jo aish kar rahe rajadhaanee mein
nahin doob sakate kya chulloo bhar paanee mein
putr chhadammeelaal se, bole shree manahoos
hindee padhanee hoye to, jao bete roos
jao bete roos, bhalee aaee aazaadee
inglish raanee huee hind mein, hindee baandee
kahan ‘kaaka’ kaviraay, dhyey ko bhejo laanat
avasaravaadee bano, svaarth kee karo vaqaalat
