What is
India? Maybe fire
Burning in
the God-heaven Heart?
Maybe magic
words to believe in?
Maybe the Almighty
God's art?
What is
India? What's the meaning of it?
Through
centuries brightened light?
Maybe
thousands years pressed in a minute?
Maybe Pune’s
hills named Sunrise?
Maybe India
is Himalayas
Under snowing
and dreaming stars?
Maybe
millions Souls creating Empires
Where a
coherent conscious starts?
Who is
India? Maybe Prayer
Who forgetting to eat and rest
Without
breath and despairing
Blesses
this sweetening Universe?
Maybe India is
Taj Mahal's Heart
Lightened
with tangible moon rays,
Where Silence
had drown in Silence
Producing the Love palace?
What is
India? Maybe Rubies,
Sapphires
or Diamonds?
But they grow
dim and will be dimming
Before
Indian people eyes.
