LIBERATION: A RAJASTHANI POEM BY SANJU SHRIMALI : ENGLISH TRANSLATION BY RAJNI CHHABRA
LIBERATION
**********
Come
Let us fight together
A fight for liberation
Emancipation of
Self from self
We know very well
That we are enslaved to
Intoxication
To malpractices
Enslaved to bonds of
Mutual affection
Enslaved to self-consciousness
Enslaved to leaders
Whom we follow blindly
We fulfil all the tasks
Assigned by them
But after their purpose is accomplished
Same leaders shun us away
Just as cattle
Forget their off-springs
When they grow up
So, let us start fight
To get liberated
From all these
You become comfortable
And me too
Feel comfortable
All human-beings
Feel comfortable.
