Romance With Democracy - 10

Rating: 3.8


Unique warriors Tilak, Nehru and Mahatma Gandhi
Called for Freedom Struggle to colonial slave Indians.
Showing dreams of independence and democracy
Assuring them an advent of a polity egalitarian.

Non-violent uprising mobilized by freedom fighters
Coupled with World-War-II imposed by Adolf Hitler
Disintegrated slowly the great, great empire
India was granted 'Fractured Freedom' of their desire.

Romance with democracy, honeymoon with power
Soon disillussioned populace victim og hunger.
Cherished values & dreams soon Gone With The Wind.
No messiha, to the rulers, could their duty remind.

Rulers next gen usurped most wealth n power
Divorcing concience forced majority to suffer.
