Here's the text of the poem the former PM recited at the end of Aap Ki Adalat show with Mr Sharma

"Aao phirse diya jalayein, Aao phirse diya jalayein

bhari doopari mein andhiyara, sooraj parchayi se hara
Antar tamka neh nichore, bhuji hui bati sulkayein,
Aao fphirse diya jalayein, Aao phirse diya jalayein…..
Hum padav ko samjhe manzil, Hum padav ko samjhe manzil
Lakshay hua aakhon se oojhal,
Vartaman moh jal mein, aane wale kal naa bhulayein,
Aao phirse diya jalayein, Aao phirse diya jalayein…..
Aahuti baaki yagya adhura,
Aapno ke vighano neh ghera,
Antim jai ka vajra banane, navdadij hadiya galayein
Aao phirse diya jalayein, Aao phirse diya jalayein….."
