A female beggar in tatters lies,
The infant in her lap bitterly cries.
She tries to make the child cool,
But in vain result all her tool.
...
Proud of my country's hallowed past
I recollected its greatness when I am downcast
To the world Aryabhatta zero provided;
Thus India's rank on the highest pedestal coincided.
...
You left my life, the grove devoid of life,
Without asking leave of me,
Such an aberration never took place before,
When you begged my permission for trifles,
...
I cannot suppress my Self,
Nor provide a deceptive facade to Self,
I instead allow my heart,
The freedom to speak without pretence.
