माझं कोल्हापूर .... लई भारी!!!!!!!

Friends, Indians, Countrymen, Lend me your eyes! This one is a different venture from me! For the first time I am going to publish someone else's work on my blog! This one's a short poem written by Marathi Singer/Musician Avadhoot Gupte for the Purepur Kolhapur (पुरेपुर कोल्हापूर). It is found written on their Menu Cards and I must say it takes you right into Kolhapur! It doesn't matter whether you have been to Kolhapur this poem will give you a feel that you are standing in Kolhapur while you read it. It made me nostalgic as I have been to Kolhapur and enjoyed the sights over there. Being a food crazy person and non-veg fanatic Kolhapur is like a seventh heaven for my taste buds (and me too!). This poem has made me nostalgic about Kolhapur. Read on and do make sure to inform me how you liked it via your comments!

PS:

• I was told by one of my friends that Avadhoot Gupte has written this poem but If anyone has confirmation about the poet, please do inform me about it!
• The credit for forwarding this poem to me goes to my friend, Ms.Latika Panjabi (No, She's not from Slumdog!).Thanks for the poem!

Here goes....... भावा, नाद नाय करायचा!!
