Papa se guzarish


I recently wrote this poem for Kabir's Hindi poem recitation in school. I vaguely remembered the first line from my childhood, the rest were easy to write! 

daftar se ghar jaldi aaya karo papa,
door kahin sair pe le jaya karo papa
panne akhbar ke palat-te ho roz hi,
kabhi nandan, kabhi champak bhi padhaya karo papa
TV par cricket ham dekhte hain aksar,
kabhi khud sachin ban chhakke udaaya karo papa
sehat ka hamari dhyaan rakhte ho aap khoob,
chhup-chhup kar kabhi chocolate bhi khilaya karo papa
mobile aur laptop hain shayad badon ke khel,
inhe chhod pakdam-pakdai bhi khilaya karo papa
mummy ke haathon ka bana khate hain roz hi, (ok, this one is a lie!)
kabhi khud apne haathon se bana bhi khilaya karo papa
