A Nation Of Plenty
A Nation Of Plenty
We do live in a democratic country
Which is Hindustan for patriots
Which Bharat for ancient believer
And India for all seculars
Albeit a nation of rich diversities
A nation of mixed races & culture
A nation of stinking rich & sinking poor
A nation of perennial eccentricities
A nation of umpteen contradictions
Where scientists talk of spirituality
Godmen debate on theory of relativity
Rulers rewrite history to prove a point
Actors endorse devotion for sheer popularity
Billionaires teach us lessons on simple living
NRIs show us how to respect our nation
Criminals preach us values & rights of life
Lawbreakers talk of dharma & adharma
Politicians talk of God & religion
Amongst all this drama
GOD prefers to remain silent
He is a sole & silent witness
To the acts unfolding before him
In the stage created by him !
