लाचार बाघ 

बाघ लग्युं

बस्त्युं मा

ज्युंदा मनखी बूकौणू

मनखी मेस्युं जंगलूँ मा

बाघा बांस बूकौणू

स्यूं जंगलूँ

स्यूं जीव -जन्तुं

बुग्याळ तक घुळणू

बाघ लाचार

पापी पेटे खातिर

मनखी धिक्कार

अति लोभै खातिर

मुंड पर

मत्थी वळो  कु

वरद हाथ पैकी

अजाद्यो  पचासों दसक

सबसे अच्छी   फसल ?

सबसे अच्छी उपज ?

नेतों कि घिमसाण  ,

सबसे अच्छी झड़त?

विदेशी कर्ज

बढणु  लग्युं च छतरी मा छेद
