The need for an hour

What is need of an hour?
Do we not want an hour?
For the nation, for the self and for all
Is it the thought of an individual?

Will only religion takes us forward?
I have no concrete words to say
But yes, true nationalism shall bond us together
Make us think fresh and some solution shall be offered

What kind of spiritualism shall come to our aid?
Not a word has been said about it
If we are going to be a slave again
All our efforts shall go in vain

India needs not spiritualism
But strong determination coupled with humanism
We have never invaded any country
So never want it to happen even by accidentally

There is an effort by many individuals
To destabilize the country and harmonize the people
Create rift and rouse the feelings of one sect to another
Raise the anti-national slogans and create the psycho-fear

If country survives, we shall prosper
We shall usher
In peaceful atmosphere
And settle whatever misgiving is here
