जब तक दवाई नहीं, तब तक ढिलाई नहीं ! दो गज दूरी, मास्क है जरुरी !     सावधानी रखें, कोरोना से बचे !     सामाजिक दूरी है बहुत जरुरी, रहे कोरोना से दूरी !         गांधीजी का था इरादा, देशवासी करें स्वच्छता का वादा।     स्वच्छता अपनाओ, देश को विकास के पथ पर लाओ।/     स्वच्छता का करें पालन, स्वच्छ हो हर घर आँगन।
