Click on the image above for a better view...ek daadi ka haath sar par,
aur wo lori...
kahan se laoge?
pair chukar namaste kehne wale chote bhai...
baithne par aawaaz karne wali charpai...
kahan se laoge?
ek gali jahan saath manai jaye holi, aur diwali...
Eid ki mubarakbaad se goonje, aisee gali...
kahan se laoge?
Siksha ke naam par siksha dene wali paathshaala,
aur wo baaju ki dukaan par muft mein toffee dene wala lala...
kahan se laoge?
Ravivaar ki dopahar mein saath moongfali khana...
roothe hue logon ko greeting card dekar manana...
kahan se laoge?
Taange mein jute ghode ki naal ki aawaaz...
Vividh Bharti ki Akhil Bhartiya Seva par bajne wale saaz...
kahan se laoge?
Samay Chalega hum chalenge tum chaloge...
par wo saath chalne ka Jazba...
Kahan se Laoge?

dosh na shabdon ka hai aur na hi shabdon ko awaaz dene wale ka.

ReplyDeleteofcourse i wrote it.... ye kaisa sawal hua bhai !!!
ReplyDeletevery wel written...its hilarious as wel as sad wen i come across the kind of youth that very clearly n conveniently take pride in stating"mujhe hindi nahi ata hai"
ReplyDeleteits absurd and sumtimes pseudo down to core,n these are not just teen there are people as old as freakin 24 who think hindi is sumthin to be looked down upon whereas english as they consider it,happens to be an endorsement on the"cool"outlook..
thanku more than nythin fer the "hindi promotion n propagation"trust me its really reqd,esp in places like delhi..
angrezi aur angrezii ka guroor toh sar chad gaya..
par ghalib ke kissson mein chuppe huee baton ka lutf...kahan se laoge!!(ummmm maybe this is hysterically funny,but wateva!jai hindi!!)
:) nice hai re.. yaar vaise kuchh cheezein kahi se layi nahi jaati wo life me ya to hoti hai ya nahi hoti..
ReplyDelete# peu...
ReplyDeletereally appreciate your concern there... i felt really good to read your comment...
if there are people like you around.. then trust me there would be someone or the other who would remember that Hindi or for that matter any local language is as important as the cewl english...
# kishley...
sab khud se nai hota sweetie... laan abhi padta hai kabhi kabhi... mehnat mushakat !!! zaroori hai...
jaise wo hand pump ka paani, dahi ka mattha banane wali naani...
ReplyDeletekahan se laoge?
hanstey-hanstey lot-pot ho jana,
ReplyDeletebin surr taal, aur phatey hothon se gaana...
ab chehrey pe chapii shikan ke peechey,
chupii huyi wo baalpan kii muskaan...
kahaan se laaoge?
