das rupae fi botal pani
hakka-bakka rah gai nani

apna bachpan yaad kiya to
arzani si thi arzani

barah aane ser asli ghi
gyarah aane tola chandi

kele the do paise darjan
chawal panch aane panseri

biscope ticket ek aana
ek atthanni ka pajama

schoolon mein fees nahin thi
collage do rupae mahana

nana ki tankhwah jo puchhi
kul paintalis rupaya nikli

paintalis hazar ke lag-bhag
pate hain abbu aur ammi
