My Eyes Full Of Tears

My Eyes Full Of Tears

Slokas and slogans

Spiritualistic and ritualistic

Guru and Go worship

Chardham and be damned

New India was taken for a ride

To medieval times, where progress

Is sacrificed at the altar of Gods’.

Where science plays a second fiddle

To superstition. 

Where dogma rules over reason.

Where your birth dictates your destiny

Where rivers are worshipped yet filthy

Where vayu is worshipped yet polluted

Where Satan rules in the name of Sanatan

Where minority beating has become a past time 

Oh! Dear father, you have left me in the land with my eyes so full of tears!!
