His Duty Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Everybody does his duty
It is wonderful and there lies beauty
I wouldn’t want things to change drastically
So people laugh at us and pass the comments sarcastically

It is desirable that everybody performs well
It is our duty to see that beautiful land is not turned into hell
How best we can give it to the existing beautiful land?
To live in consonance with foes and friends

We can see the inheritance so rich
It is not beyond our reach
It is neither to be preached
Nor required to be breached

Skies may remain overcast
With rain drain they may last
Earth may get little satisfied
As she is elated and not terrified

It is unique experience in every way
Everybody wants to be near and doesn’t want to go away
Remain within circle and embrace to fulfill
That is hidden wish and remains as will

Every dropp of rain makes it dramatic
Adding of wind and little flow makes it more romantic
It is natural and nothing like mystic
It remains as core and universal basic

I may want to be identified with every object
My place is there and no one can deny or reject
I shall stay fully aligned with only affection
I have nothing to offer or differ with reaction

Nature grants us full environmental freedom
Harm or any of such kind is expected seldom
Live and let others live with full coexistence
I expect it right to expect such insistence
