ऐ उम्र, माना कि तू बड़ी हस्ती है
जब चाहे मेरा बचपन छीन सकती है..
पर गुरुर मत कर अपनी हस्ती पर
मुझे भी नाज़ हैं अपनी मस्ती पर,
गर है दम तो इतनी सी कर ख़ता
बचपन तो छीन लिया, बचपना छीन कर बता... :)

Yo age, agree that you're quite an entity!!
Can snatch my childhood whenever you please, what a pity!

But Don't be so proud!!
Just wait!!! Coz even I have faith in my fun and trait.

But if you have the guts, oh I dare you
You can steal my childhood if you wish!! But the child in me, will never ever perish!! 🤓🌈
