उन्होंने कहा - कि हर चौक पर
नाम रखे इन्सां - भगवान के
बेचारे जानवरों के लिए कुछ नहीं छोडा ?
हमने कहा - आइये बडोदा में
दिखलायें आपको काला घोड़ा
यह ऐसा है घोड़ा जिस पर बैठे हैं
महाराजा सयाजीराव ताने सीना चौडा
पर ये भी है विडम्बना,
कि इसने उन्ही के नाम को पीछे है छोडा
इसने सीधे रस्ते को है दो दिशाओं में मोडा
और इसके आसपास अकस्मातों ने
न जाने कितने निर्दोषों का सिर है फोड़ा
भई ! ये है बड़ा निगौडा
इसे कहते हैं सभी काला घोड़ा
