Liberal Longings Poem by SHAHNAWAZ AHMAD ANSARI

Oh Almighty, confer us with the crown of inclusive-lit-contents;
Oh Lord of the hour, confide us every ups and downs & discontent!

Turn us the firmament of intuitive-heartfelt-vision;
Empower us to overcome suppression & oppression!

Oh casualness-trend, bestow mere one good & grand thing to our credit;
Plant a garden to guard our predestined oppressors always in gambit!

Enable us to be genuine wayfarer to every highness of humanity;
Epitomise us to be the paradigm of patience in every adversity!

Ensure every Indian-house has a gracious window of prosperity;
Interlink a uniform binding to efface every darkness & iniquity!

Capacitate us, like a glider to stave off the bewildering backwardness;
Typify us with due joviality where every minuscule dwells in happiness!

Oh plank of time, let's awake the slumbering communities for centuries;
Make us the luminary to light up every corner and delighted memories!

Invigorate us a spirited human dynamo to sustain every severity;
Stimulate us to push on as an asset to nullify any hatred in totality!

If hatred prevails in India, induce us to be the catalyst of restoring unity in diversity;
Oh Mother Nature; Oh flora & fauna, make us the ambassador of peace & tranquillity!

We are free-citizens, though; let's reconstruct our unanimous but identified niche entity;
We wish to get our rights; make us exuberate to be the seekers of our rights with agility!

We are slave of freedom; Oh Lord, grant us with the real spirit of FREEDOM unabated;
We long to witness a NEW INDIA - unaltered at the dawn of every Independence Day!
