❝Vacate the throne, for the people now arise, The age is turning, and a new dawn greets the skies. From this nation's soil we are born and made, In this very soil, our lives must someday fade.❞
❝Stop not Yudhishthira here — let him journey to heaven above, But return to us the Gandiva-bow, bring back Arjun and Balram's love. Kauravs and Pandavas were one, even today one lineage they share, But what stands before us calls — let us perform patriotism's prayer.❞
❝Dogs receive milk and clothing, hungry children writhe in pain, Clinging to their mother's bones, they endure the winter's bitter bane. A young woman's dignity is sold, yet no one's hunger fades, Speaking of religion in this swamp, without wet eyes, one never aids.❞
❝Forgiveness becomes the cobra that carries its venom within, What use forgiveness in one toothless, mild, and free of sin. Both strength and mercy together give life its grace and glow, Otherwise the meekness of the weak means nothing, high or low.❞
❝The fire that burns us in the end refines, Through the heat of trials our true character shines. The storms that bend us low and bring us to our knees, Are the very ones that strengthen our roots with ease.❞
