બૉસ, આ ગુજરાત છે ! <http://www.readgujarati.com/sahitya/?p=3851>
અહીં પ્રેમ કેરો સાદ છે
પ્રભુજીનો પ્રસાદ છે
ને પ્રકૃતિનો વરસાદ છે !
બૉસ, આ ગુજરાત છે !
અહીં નર્મદાનાં નીર છે
માખણ અને પનીર છે
ને ઊજળું તકદીર છે !
યસ, આ ગુજરાત છે !
 અહીં ગરબા-રાસ છે
વળી જ્ઞાનનો ઉજાસ છે
ને સોનેરી પરભાત છે
અલ્યા, આ ગુજરાત છે !
અહીં ભોજનમાં ખીર છે
સંસ્કારમાં ખમીર છે
ને પ્રજા શૂરવીર છે !
કેવું આ ગુજરાત છે !
 અહીં વિકાસની વાત છે
સાધુઓની જમાત છે
ને સઘળી નાત-જાત છે
યાર, આ ગુજરાત છે !
 અહીં પર્વોનો પ્રાસ છે
તીર્થો તણો પ્રવાસ છે
ને શૌર્યનો સહવાસ છે !
દોસ્ત, આ ગુજરાત છે !
