Do Paise Kamane...
Ki Do paise kamane mai shehar aaya,
Gaon bhulake shehar bhatake ne aaya,
Na sar pe chatt na jeb me rupaiya,
Eh shehar teri bheed ka mai hissa bane aaya,

Suna hai tu kisiko bhukha marne nahi deta,
Ye dekh 4 din se maine khana nahi khaya,
Bhatakta gully-gully mai woh khwaab kharidne aaya,
Eh shehar is begani basti me mai ghar basa ne chala aaya

Kitno ko tune pala hai mujhe bhi paal lena,
Kone me kisi mujhe bhi panah de dena,
Jab khali hoga makan mera toh uss mahajir ko de dena, 
Aakhir wo bhi toh do paise kamane shehar aaya hoga (2)

दो पैसे कमाने…
की दो पैसे कमाने मै शहर आया,
 गांव भुलाके शहर भटक ने आया,
 न सर पे छत्त न जेब में रुपैया,
 एह शहर तेरी भीड़ का मै हिस्सा बनने आया.

 सुना है तू किसीको भूखा मरने नहीं देता,
 ये देख ४ दिन से मैंने खाना नहीं खाया,
 भटकता गल्ली-गल्ली मै वोह ख्वाब खरीदने आया,
 एह शहर इस बेगानी बस्ती में मै घर बसा ने चला आया.
  
 कितनो को तूने पाला है मुझे भी पाल लेना,
 कोने में कीसी मुझे भी पनाह दे देना,
 जब खाली होगा मकान मेरा तो उस महाजिर को दे देना, 
 आखिर वो भी तो दो पैसे कमाने शहर आया होगा (२)
