Some excerpts from the Poem
ਬਾਬੇ ਬਿਰਧ ਦੀਪ ਸਿੰਘ ਨੇ, ਮਾਲਵਿਉਂ ਗੱਭਰੂ ਲਿਆਂਦੇ ਚੁਣਕੇ ।
ਜਿਵੇਂ ਸਰਪ ਬੀਨ ਤੇ ਜੀ, ਮੇਲ੍ਹਦੇ ਸ਼ਬਦ ਚੌਂਕੀਆਂ ਸੁਣਕੇ ।
ਨਾ ਡਰਦਾ ਮਰਨੇ ਤੋਂ, ਸੂਰਮਾ ਦਾਦਾ ਬਹਾਦਰ ਨਾਨਾ ।
ਸੋਂਹਦੇ ਕਫ਼ਨ ਸ਼ਹੀਦਾਂ ਦੇ, ਚਮਕੀਆਂ ਬਿਜਲੀ ਵਾਂਗ ਕਰਪਾਨਾਂ ।
….
ਕਹੇ ਬਾਬਾ ਦੀਪ ਸਿੰਘ ਜੀ, ਗੁਰੂ ਦੀ ਸੈਨਾ, ਹੁਕਮ ਮੰਨ ਲੈਣਾ,
ਲੜਾਕੀ ਨਸਲੇ, ਪਰਖਣੇ ਅਸਲੇ,
ਅਣਖ ਦਿਓ ਭਰਿਓ, ਕਟਾਰਾਂ ਚੱਕ ਲੋ ।
ਫਿਰੇ ਡਾਰ ਹਰਨੀਆਂ ਦੀ,
ਬਾਘ ਵਿਚ ਖੀਰੇ, ਹਰਨ ਵਿਚ ਹੀਰੇ, ਬਘਿਆੜੋ ਹੱਕ ਲੋ ।
ਵਾਜੇ ਵਜਦੇ ਮੌਤ ਦੇ ਜੀ, ਕਾਹਦੀਆਂ ਦੇਰਾਂ, ਕਢਾ ਦਿਓ ਲੇਰਾਂ,
ਜੰਗਾਂ ਵਿਚ ਨਿਤਰਿਓ, ਮਾਂ ਦਿਓ ਚਿਤਰਿਓ,
ਮਾਸ ਦਿਓ ਭੁਖਿਓ, ਸੁਤੇ ਪੱਟ ਅੱਖ ਲਿਓ ।
ਆ ਗਿਆ ਵਕਤ ਸ਼ਹੀਦੀ ਦਾ,
ਕਈਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਵੱਢ ਕੇ, ਜਾਨ ਨੂੰ ਕੱਢ ਕੇ, ਤਲੀ ਤੇ ਰੱਖ ਲਿਓ ।
