Cattle Battle Tattle (rhymes without reason)

Bhains pe bahas
Gaai pe charcha
4G mei chhooth
GST mei kharcha
Kashmir mei battle
Cattle pe tattle
Parliament mei din
Officially acche din
PM se Merkel high five
Sensex, Nifty at highs
Lake levels are low
While they go to save the gau
Monsoon is on time
In UP there is crime
We won a round at The Hague
The verdict is slightly vague
If you are confused, cheer Ajinkya
Or Virat, AshWin or Pandya
Picture yourself in an ICICI ad
Go to Facebook, upload your fad
There's a day for mom, one for dad
Between festivals for every  god
Shop like crazy, it's raining discounts
Roads jammed with cars, e-commerce mounts
Get yourself a loan, see the Great Barrier Reef
Eat, drink be merry but avoid beef
Or fly to Athens, Paris or Roam
Not Bengaluru, where it"s snowing chemical foam
Ward off mosquitoes, prevent chikungunya
Celebrate, celebrate oh darling Yeh hai India!
