Poem: "Mota Hath Khalna Chala"
Translation of Title:
"The Chubby Elephant Went to Play"
---
Mota hath khalna chala,
Doston ka mela laga bhala.
Jungle mein dhoom machane,
Sab ke saath khushiyan banane.
Pairo se dharti hil gayi,
Lambi soondh se dhoom machayi.
Kabhi nacha, kabhi uchhla,
Mota hath mast mein phisla.
Sab janwar hanste aaye,
Doston ne milke geet gaye.
Din bhar ki thi maze ki baat,
Raat hui toh ghar chal pat.
