Hola, I am Ram mehta,
I am going out to say adios to the land,                  
Where cars are houses,
And houses are storehouses.

I am going out to say adios to the land,
Where boy friends are easily available,
But batteries not included.

I am going out to say adios to the land
Where the girls are looking for the fun,
But batteries to be recharged.

I am going out to say adios to the land,
Where a son is enamoured of his own mother
And daughter seeks her own father in bed.

I am going out to say goodbye to the land,
An unmarried girl wants a child,
Her mother takes her to the city to get pregnant,
Like a shepherd takes the cows to a bull.

Please leave your message,
I shall get back to you

                     +++++++
