Awaken My India ~ India Eternal, India Indigenous [Poem]
Radiate forth, shining democratic wisdom
To regain your lost freedom
You won over a common adversary
Only to find it resurge as “Inequity”
To unfurl its sinister wings
Over the weak and gloomy skins
Oh! My ingenuous newspaper lad
Brought me reports not so glad
India’s affluent are so worldly clad!
What purpose does such plethora serve?
When millions of my line, lie in emaciated reserve
As above, so below claim the esoteric texts
So will the opulence of the Topline cents
Trickle steadily into the indigent depths?
Now break free ethnic India
From the fetters of ancient oppression
Hey partisans, what’s with your breed, creed and clan
Touch-me-not with your pervasive sham
“Be your own light”, said the wise Master
Learn, empower, emerge
Reason, question and surge
Awake anew, from state arcane
To make a habitat just (&) humane
