pada-pada kya kar raha, re moorakh naadaan
darpan rakh kar saamane, nij svaroop pahachaan
nij svaroop pahchaan, numaish mele vaale
jhuk-jhuk karen salaam, khomache-thele vaale
kahan ‘kaaka’ kavi, sabzee-meva aur imaratee
charana chaahe muft, pulis mein ho ja bharatee
kotavaal ban jaaye to, ho jaaye kalyaan
maanav kee to kya chale, dar jaaye bhagavaan
dar jaaye bhagavaan, banao moonchhe aiseen
inthee hueen, janaral ayoob rakhate hain jaiseen
kahan ‘kaaka’, jis samay karoge dhaaran vardee
khud aa jaaye ainth-akad-sakhtee-bedardee
shaan-maan-vyaktitv ka karana chaaho vikaas
gaalee dene ka karo, nit niyamit abhyaas
nit niyamit abhyaas, kanth ko kadak banao
begunaah ko chor, chor ko shaah batao
‘kaaka’, seekho rang-dhang peene-khaane ke
‘rishvat lena paap’ likha baahar thaane ke
