TRAGIC TRUTH!

 

 

Stand yes, by the big Constitution!

Swear no problems, in the Courts

Uphold all the Laws of the Govts -

All these in words and on Paper!

 

But always stand by your Caste!

And by your historic conscience

Built over the long long long ages!

By your ancestors and families!!

 

Implement meticulously and always

The traditional Laws of the Society!

Implement the Laws of your Land!

And Preserve the Life of the Manu!!

 

What if we are still called backward

Nation of open liars and big cheats

With closed minds double standards

And as most untrustworthy people?

 

That is how the brahmins survive

As the dominant determinant ones

With out really ever working even

For their own comfortable lives!
