WISH I WAS NEVER FREE
WISH I WAS NEVER FREE
WISH THINGS THAT HAPPENED,
WERE NEVER MEANT TO BE.
WISH “TIRANGA”HAD NEVER FLOWN SO HIGH!
O’BOY IT HURTS,
WHEN THE DESCEND IS FROM THE SKY.
26TH JANUARY 1950, INDIA’S VERY OWN CONSTITUTION
A DAY HE HAD LONGED TO SEE,
THE GREAT “FATHER OF THE NATION”
WE’R A REPUBLIC, COURTESY DR. B.R. AMBEDKAR
SALUTE TO THE THOUSAND SONS
POSTHUMOUSLY KNOWN AS MARTYR.
15TH AUGUST 1947, TRANSFORMATION OF A HUE
WHAT GOOD WAS THIS INDEPENDENCE,
WHEN A COUNTRY WAS DIVIDED IN TWO!
HINDU, MUSLIM, SIKH, ISAI
BRETHREN FOR YEARS, ENEMIES NOW
HUM SAB THEY KABHI BHAI BHAI.
YOU WERE HIT BY A MADMAN, O GREAT MAHATMA
AS YOU SOW, SO SHALL YOU REAP
HONESTLY, WAS THIS TO BE YOUR KARMA?
“GIVE ME BLOOD, AND I SHALL GIVE YOU FREEDOM”.
BLOOD STILL OOZES OUT SIR,
LONG HAVE WE RECEIVED OUR FREEDOM?
FOUGHT FOR HER RIGHT, DID THE BRAVE LAKSHMIBAI
EVERY GIRL STILL DOES,
GENDER EQUALITY BEING A FAR CRY.
THE HANDS THAT PRODUCE OUR FOOD IS ALSO AN INSAAN
WHAT AN IRONY, LAL BAHADUR SHASTRI ONCE SAID,
“JAI JAWAAN, JAI KISAAN”.
A BETTER TOMORROW DO I WISH TO SEE
A BRIGHT SUNSHINE FOR MY CHILDREN TOO.
MERE FACEBOOK POST AND A CANDLE MARCH, WON’T MAKE A HAPPY ME.
BHAGAT SINGH ONCE SAID,”INQILAB ZINDABAD”.
NEED OF INDIA IS ONE MORE INQUILAB
RIGHT FROM ASSAM TO HYDERABAD.
“WHY CAN’T WE LIVE ON LAND”? ASKED A LITTLE FISH
HONEST WAS THE REPLY OF HIS MOTHER
“WE’R FISH AND THERE RESIDES SEL-FISH”.
WISH I COULD ROAM FREE
WISH THERE WAS ONLY ONE WAY
A HAPPY YOU AND ME.
