Jyotiba Phule Poem by Mohammad Muzzammil

From the soil of Maharashtra he rose,
A voice for those society chose
To leave behind, to cast aside,
But Jyotiba Phule would not abide.

Born into a lower caste,
He knew firsthand the pain that lasts,
When discrimination is all you see,
And your dreams are denied to thee.

But Jyotiba refused to be beaten down,
He fought for education, for a fairer town,
He established schools for girls and women too,
To show that everyone deserved to pursue.

He challenged the caste system, a force so strong,
But Jyotiba fought on, for so long,
He believed that all should be free,
To live their lives in dignity.

For his vision, his courage, his fight,
Jyotiba Phule will always be in sight,
A beacon of hope for those who strive,
To make this world a better place, and to thrive.
