River Thejaswini
Ever you are great
The village people likes
The urban people looks
River Thejaswini
The river with salinity
The river with coarse sand
We cherished our own culture
We heard your silent songs
We hear your silent curses
The pain you suffer
On pollution, destruction
Curtailing, Blocking ways
Decades before we depended you
For commuting the commodities
In large wooden Boats
The Boatmen sang the folklore
Your ways they enjoyed
But river the mother
The lovely and affectionate one
Our forefathers washed the sins
They made the bathing ghats
But never dumped wastes
Never allowed to make you unclean
Water, the elixir of life
They taught us for ever.
River Thejaswini, don't be panic
The people are now understood
You are the life brain
You are the life blood
You are to be protected
Though you yourself is the protector
River Thejaswini ever happy to remember.
Tribute to Tejaswani and definite description of friendship makes this poem fantastic and fabulous.
