A Nation Of Plenty

A Nation Of Plenty

1 min

 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 !
