Community’s agenda

Can someone tell me, what is this crazy new funda?
Fighting amongst ourselves has almost become our dhandha
Be an orthodox or a new-Zoro, after all one is a Parsi banda.
Some even try firing a gun over another’s feeble kandha
Or sweet talk you, taking you in their well planned funda.
We cannot afford to marry outside or remain a wandha
Or try to live on the community’s one or more chanda.
Worst still, try to divide the community by playing a game ganda.
Oh Ahura, save this great religion of ours, even if you have to use a danda.
Fertilize us bawajis; we heed to procreate, making many an unda.
