I mean chor, luccha, lafganga, aawara,
Thieves, frauds, rowdies and loafers
All can be leaders in Bihar,
The politicians,
I mean the illiterates.
Paanwall, Bidiwalla, Cigaretwalla,
Gayawalla, Bhainsawalla, Bakriwalli,
All leaders,
Leaders in Bihar.
All leaders, socialists,
The socialists of Bihar not,
India.
The gawalas, the moustached
Sturdy and rough and rough gawalas,
I mean the milkmen,
Buffalo men, cow boys all.
The palm-juice sellers they too
Are the leaders
of backward, illiterate Bihar.
