Indian Culture

There was no one ever bored                                                                       

When India was young and bright                     

Long before the British ruled                        

We always shone with light                         

We had a prodigious tradition                       

We had a unique culture                            

We had everything we loved and needed              

But what happened now and why.                    

We never thought we would                         

We never thought we could                        

We never knew one what stood                                           

Could be hiding its face in a hood.                    

Don't know what it is                              

It is already long forgotten                          

What used to be a famous tiger                 

Is now hiding in its den                             

Your father and your mother                                      

And even your grandparents

Enjoy it everywhere

With no place to spare

It is our culture 

More beautiful than a cats purr

We have to bring it back

Cause that’s one thing we lack

But now, Everything is lost

Though it's not a cost

I’ll tell you some cultures

That stood out and lures

We had a show called Bommalattam 

Which Is Tamil for Puppet show

It was widely used in the olden days

But now, rarely seen is the beautiful face

 

We used natural ingredients for our food

It was our medicine

Every cure was at home

No doctors prescribing medicine

Now for every illness

It's a must to go to the doctor

We need medicine so much

That we can’t live without a bunch

Millets, Ragi, Bajra, Corn 

 For breakfast, Lunch and dinner 

 Now Pizza fries and burger 

 And nothing but fast-food

 Even though it's not good 

 We eat them nearly every week

 We go everywhere and seek

 Though they make us weak

 We used to play with Friends

 But now, Gadgets are the trend

 We always farmed back then                        

 But now fitness is the fashion

 We had a lovely culture 

 But we lost it all

 We have to bring it back 

 Cause that’s one thing we lack
