My Tryst With World Literature Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

I grew up in such a family
Where learnt I about British history,
American history,
Re-writing of history,
Folk songs,
History, politics and literature,
Art and culture,
Labour schools, charwaha schools,
Partition, refugees,
Love for Dalits,
Kangal-rupa Daridranarayana,
Buddha and Buddhism,
Jainism,
The Bible,
The Pirs and Mazars
And above all the lessons in humanism,
World humanism,
Daya, maya, karuna and prem.
