Bas ek shaant nagar shodhu chu - kya malshe? Swapno nu ek shaher shodhu chu - Kya malshe? .............. Je malvanu nathi kyarey ahi, ene melavavaa roj dodu chu, Swapno ma kaik mahelo banavu, Ne badha jaate j roj todu chu, Bas ek j mukt saher* shodhu chu - kya malshe? Swapno nu ek shaher shodhu chu - kya malshe? ............. Ghadiyaal na kaanta joine jivu chu, Ne em j chaaltu yantra^ thayo chu, Bheed ma rahi ne pan eklo chalu chu, Ne Pattharo ma rahi patthar thyo chu, Prem bhari ek hum-safar shodhu chu - kya malshe? Swapno nu ek shaher shodhu chu - kya malshe? ............. Ahi shanti ma pan bahu ghonghaat che, Ane ajampa** bhari har ek Khushi che, Footpath par rahi ne loko hasi shake che, Ane Mahelo ma rahene pan sau dukhi che, Jethi sau maanas bane, te asar shodhu chu - Kya malse? Sau bhega rahi shake, e shaher shodhu chu - Kya malse? - Asthir Amdavadi Kush *Saher - सुबह, morning ^Yantra - यन्त्र , machine ** Ajampa - बेचेनी

Kya khovai gayo hato hu, dost - Tane shu khabar. Shema atvai gayo hato hu, dost - Tane shu khabar. ........... Kaik ajnabi ne dost banavya, Ane kaik dost ajnabi thaya, Roj bhega thai hasta jeni sathe; Eni ek jalak mate tarsi gaya, kevo atdaai gayo hato hu, dost - Tane shu khabar, Kya khovai gayo hato hu, dost - Tane shu khabar. ........... Parikshao aapi ne Bore thayo, Ane Copy kari ne 'chor' thayo, Guitar vagadi ne hath dukhya; ne Garba rami ne chur thayo, Samay am j ketlo vaprai gayo, dost - Tane shu khabar, Kya khovai gayo hato hu, dost - Tane shu khabar. .......... Divaso veete che, gani rahyo chu, sapna tute che, vini rahyo chu, Je pan thayu, e to aavyu ne gayu; Aa j to zindagi, jaani gayo chu, Aa zindagi thi ketlo tevai gayo chu, dost - Tane shu khabar, Aam j ketlo badlaai gayo chu, dost - Tane shu khabar. .......... - Asthir Amdavadi Kush
