achchhe din

Shining India was a prelude to ACHCHHE DIN

That old patriarch who made India shining

though a bachelor and a born Swayamsevak like me

lagged behind in deception and treachery

also was far behind in dissemble affability

a mask himself

was unable to further mask himself

while unmasking others

Though excellent in demagoguery

but would at times gave thought to his words

In attempt to create a global credibility

took his words of friendship seriously with Pakistan

a disaster to our stock of food and fuel

God bless Musharraf who helped creating Kargil

to scuttle the POTA-LOTA uproar on the roads

Shining did not bring about good days

The weaponry of riots has not dried as yet

the ACHCHHE DIN shall continue to AANEWALE

for the next 5 years

There shall be no kisan and no dukan

no fear no tear

and before 5 years end

Pakistan shall commit the blunder of attacking our Rashtra

that shall awaken and rise and shall crush this tiny neighbor

Some philosopher had said it centuries ago

patriotism is last resort of scoundrels

and war patriotism guarantee to retain the throne

BEHTAR DIN shall continue to AANEWALA

for the next five years

but i fear the people might come to know the truth

and throw me in the dustbin of history

I shall burn the books of history
