Where Is Odisha? Poem by Gajanan Mishra

Where is Odisha?
I asked a graduate
Of my town Titilagarh
And he replied
That I can't say,
But I hear our CM
Uttered; our uriya
Our urisaa and I think
It must be there
In his pocket
And also in his nivas.
The graduate young man
Of twenty one years,
Again said, sir,
See our people are
Going away to far off land
To fill up the belly
And let us say everywhere
There is Odisha,
Where we worship our Lord,
And where we read and write in
Our language, where we are free
To express our news and views.
Good question sir,
Thanks a lot.
But I need no thank
Since you have no power
To do anything for
Our land, for our language
And for us.
