Where have they gone?

Where have they gone?
Where have they gone?

Mother, Where have they gone?

...Lal Bahadur and Subhash Chandra,

Lala Lajpatrai and Lokmanya

Where have they gone?

Gandhi and Bhagat Singh, Mother

Bismil and Chapekar,

Nehru and Sardar, Mother,

Khudiram and Ambedkar.

Where are they, Mother

When we need them the most.

Where are they?

We miss them , Mother.

Can you send them to us Mother,

Just for one day...

Where have these come from?

The 'leaders' of today;

Why did you send them ,Mother?

What mistakes have we committed?

The mistake of not valuing our nation.

The mistakes of apathy towards our brothers and sisters

of letting them die of hunger while we feasted.

Can you forgive us , Mother

For remaining stubbornly silent for several long years.

For letting the baton drop when they passed it to our hands

and not caring to pick it up.

No religion or scriptures can fill the chasm

That you have wrought in my heart;

She says : Krishna, My Lord ! My Savior!

We , the power

'Kill the messenger.'
'Kill the messenger.'
He talks true things 
He brings bitter tidings


We will first bring him disrepute
We will tarnish his reputation
How dare he challenge us
He breaths because we allow him


Call  I.T.E.D.C.B.I.
Buy everyone you can
See that those who stand with him 
Are beaten to their knees.


Argh ! He speaks ! he still speaks
Can no one silent him ?
Crush his agitation ?
Why is he not afraid ?

These few moments, sister


when we meet


do not last long ;


But they remain - 


forever !
