Make India colourful again,
Where knowledge floats free,
Where beating hearts roam free.
Where nights are not dawned upon by fears..
But a sign for the sun shine to gleam.
Oh, God who hath created the terrain of peninsula, the giant mountains pecked scrounging the winds of chills.
The Arabians and bays tilling the soil to nourishment along with soulful winds.
Oh! see, the dark mongers of humanity has relegated the core of Indianism and made us pickets of candle marchers and bearers of gases tearing the eyes and flushing away.
The epochs of colonism, where
Where hands saw no divide,
Where tears dropped the same lachmyral drops,
And beated hearts in unison, crimsoned in red
Ready to bleed with just beats and steps,
Drew away the white mongers
Who ensnared us in scathing slavery…
And freed us breathing the free…
Alas, the martyred soul, “don’t returneth to the land of thee”
It’s dwellers fight and drenched hands in greed.
The fickleness has produced a regressed mind.
The divide has wedged and eyes in sea of dreadful opulence.
Oh, Birds of golden era don’t resurrect for your eyes cannot image and ears cannot audit the cries of helpless in agony.
The aghastness in the shadow of dark affluent, dies each day relinquishing,
Where its children of morphed culture dies in the awe of conspired modernisation,
Where the era of unlawful jingoism blanching the minds.
Make India colourful again,
Colouring the world
Walking with beautiful minds ,
Treading the path of freedom fighters,
With Echoing words of great leaders ..
Where women heads were held high,
Where culture rose to zenith flushing away the animalistic obscenity.
Oh God! Make India colourful again.

The fact is the definition of humanity changes from piller to post.
The fact is like how a sanskrit poem said the one with knowledge and wisdom is like a branch of tree with fruits, but the present scenario is a bit heart wrenching we follow masses, follow hypocrites and trust them.
Your optimism i hope comes true, not only in India but the world as a whole is fighting, the new world order and the synergy have sinister agendas.
See the fight for oil, armament race, civil wars etc.
I feel India is the best one among all and the root cause of all problem somewhere lies in lack of unity and understanding. Corruption can be curbed with lokpal and education a proper education for all and free should be of utmost importance.
