ना
इधर के रहे
ना
उधर के रहे
बीच
में लटकते रहे
Did
not belong to here,
Nor
could get belonged to there,
They
were keeping on hanging in between
ना
India को भुला सके
ना
videsh को अपना सके
NRI बन
के काम चलाते रहे
They could
not forget India,
They could not make
foreign countries their own,
They became an NRI and managed
things.
ना
हिन्दी को छोड़ सके
ना
अंग्रेजी को पकड़ सके
देसी
accent में गोरो को
confuse करते
रहे
Neither
could they leave
Hindi,
Neither
could
they catch hold of English,
And in an
accent of Desi Indians,
They
kept on confusing those white ones
ना
shorts पहन सके
ना
सलवार कमीज़ छोड़ सके
Jeans पर
कुरता पहेन कर इतराते रहे
They could
not wear shorts,
Nor they could leave Shalwar Kameeze,
And
they got used to wearing
Kurtha
over jeans
ना
नाश्ते में Donut खा सके
ना
खिचड़ी कढी को भुला सके
Pizza पर
मिर्च छिड़ककर
मज़ा
लेते रहे
They could not eat
Donuts for breakfast ,
Nor
could they forget Khichdi and Kadi,
Then they
used to sprinkle chilly
powder,
On
Pizzas and started enjoying it.
ना
गरमी को भुला सके
ना
Snow को अपना सके
खिड़की
से सूरज को
Beautiful Day कहते
रहे
Neither could
they forget heat,
Nor
could they make Snow
their own,
And seeing Sun through window,
They went on telling “beautiful day”
अब
आयी बारी
India
जाने
की तो
हाथ
में mineral पानी की बोतल लेकर
चलते रहे
लेकिन
वहां पर.............
Then came the
chance ,
To come to India,
And when they were going there,
They were
wandering carrying mineral bottles
ना
भेल पूरी खा सके
ना
लस्सी पी सके
पेट
के दर्द से तड़पते रहे
तिरफला
और डाइज़िंन
से
काम चलाते रहे
They could
not eat Bhel Poori,
Nor
could they drink Lassi,
They
were suffering by stomach ache
,
And
some how they managed ,
By
eating Triphala and Digene
ना
मच्छर से भाग सके
ना
खुजली को रोक सके
Cream से
दर्दों को छुपाते रहे
They could not run away from Mosquito,
Nor
could they stop that scratching ,
And
by using the cream they were hiding their pain
ना
इधर के रहे
ना
उधर के रहे
कमबख्त
कहीं के ना रहे😜😀
They did not
belong to here ,
Neither they belonged to there
And those wretched
ones did not belong to any where
Dedicated to all NRIs
