Call of the day

A lot we can achieve if united we become/ divided if, to inundation we will succumb./ To decide the path right is in our hands alone/ these are the hands with which seeds will be sown.

"United we stand divided we fall” is a maxim well known/ then, shouldn’t we quickly strengthen our own backbone?/ duty comes well before rights; know this well, we all;/ then why to our ego, stubbornness, pettiness do we fall?

Let the traditionalists carry on in the same way, all that they do/ "Srosh, uthamna, afringan” could be prayed at home too./ If practice we do not wish to, the tenets, the principles as they are;/ why hurt should we another? Why someone’s peace mar?

The principle of "live and let live” will help us to achieve a lot/ let us not therefore in nitty-gritty unnecessarily be caught/ concentrate to multiply should we; that is the call of the day./ Think with all your heart, that is all, "Anar” has to say.
