Time Has Come Poem by Aftab Alam

Time has come, time has come,
Come, with slogan and drum,
With a victorious song to lead
Keep patriotic oozy mead.

Drink, drink up to the brim
Saffron, white and green
Dignity, must we adorn, merrily
Wheel must move on, move on.

Leap of the Lion and the roar
Purus the Alexander's sore
British out of our divided folly
Made us slave with bloody Holi //

We united and won
And now forlorn
Everybody on his boat
Weep not but swot.

Vision is not yet lost
Though blinded with
The caste and creed
And religion, the fission
Now out of confusion.

Out of ashes and mud
We rise to praise: surd
You hear, you unheard
We are one, it's not fun.

How long greed will suppress the need
It is ephemeral, be careful, please heed
Together, now it's my call a plead to lead
Unarm, unmask, to sow democratic seed.

Time has come, time has come,
Come, with slogan and drum,
With a victorious song to lead
Keep patriotic oozy mead.
