Wounds And Tension

India was portioned

The boundary was lined

Some were left for future conflicts

The wounds were to be inflicted

 

The great land was cut from two sides

With accession clause to decide

Many states were asked to exercise their option

The two newly born states were soon to strain relations

 

Let us outright pay tribute Sardar Patel then home minister   

Who had courage to take full support and muster?

All princely states were brought under one umbrella or cover

India was now succeeded to become federal power

 

India was surrounded by two hostile countries

With so much addition of miseries

How many refugees entered to add additional load

The peace was derailed and free movement was blocked

 

India seemed totally eclipsed

The population was not pleased

History left behind seeds of dissension

Still we are bleeding with wounds and tension.
