Prayer

Oh the architect of our destiny
the harbinger of harmony, prosperity,well being
victory to thee, victory to thee
victory to your will at all times 

Traveled for long, thousands of years
today weary, tired,divided and so far away
from our famed ethos, culture & values
a pale reflection of our original selves!

Save us oh saviour
from this web of desire
greed, lust and anger
that translated into deceit, corruption, murder
rape of even little ones
hate and intolerance of  citizens
for  one another   

Let us Oh Lord  drop off into slumber
a deep sleep- for a week, ten days
and awaken with none remembering
their caste, religion, region or economic strata

Awaken  with a clean slate
hearts clean and fresh
hearts filled with just one emotion
love, love, love for all-  mankind
fauna, flora all living beings....

May our nation awaken to her true nature!
