To India – On republic day
- Seema Saha
Twinkle Twinkle the world’s “shining” star
Look where u were and where u are…
Why has the brightness dulled as such?
A year that ravaged and hurt you so much?
What had angered and embittered your every son
Is the dastardly act of the coward’s gun….
The naked deceit of the professed “true” one
Your image of success, of years, undone...
But why does the star shine bright no more?
Where did your strength ...your conviction go?
Look up and soar into the sky
Shine again and rise very high
The shattered sparkle don’t bemoan
We are all with you… you are not alone...
Shine again my little star
We need to go very far… we have to go very far!
