New Year Welcome Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Ding dong, ding dong
The morning alarm bell rings
Reminds me of something forgotten
Oh! It was memorable year 2013 gone

I regretted the fast passing over
Not was bad for whole of the life cover
It had many ups and down to remind
But over all it was nice and kind

I could find little comfort
As such had nothing report
Even thought everything was costly and dear
I could possibly not hear

“The plight of poor people” I felt sad
“How can they survive in struggle”
It was difficult to go ahead with family members
“Two time square meal was really luxury to remember”

I prayed god to make life little easy
We were passing through bad phase already
“God, please do not add more woes”
Bless the country with good harvest and pause

I bowed more for all those intelligent people
Who were committed for the poverty’s removal?
I thanked almighty for bringing them to some sense
As some were jailed and some were behind bars for nonsense
