it ki dukki, paan ka ikka
kahin jokar, kahin satta hai
suno jii ye, kalakatta hai.....................
taali ganj ki jheel pe baabu, aae roop ke daas
jheel kinaare badhati jaae, matavaalon ki pyaas
na "pocket" men maal hai baabu
na kapadaa naa latta hai
suno ji ye kalakatta hai..................
chaurangi ke chowk men dekho, matavaale bangaali
rasagulle si mithi baaten, in ki shaan niraali
kahi benarji kahin mukharji
kahin ghosh, kahin datta hai
suno ji ye kalakatta hai..................
ye basti hai aag ka dariya, isamen haavada pul hai
apani jaan bacha lo baabu, varana dibba gul hai
sar par paanv rakh kar bhaago, katane vaala patta hai
suno ji ye kalakatta hai...................
