Sonnet 1143 | Vande Vasudhaivam
Give me some sunshine,
Give me some rain!
Why the hell am I asking you,
When I’m the steward of my own reign!
Ship of society is sinking,
O Young and Bold, now hail the helm!
Come to the rescue of those lost at sea,
To hell with the nonsense of shame and fame!
My religion is to rescue the fallen,
My creed to care for the persecuted.
Faith, reason, nation, I heed none,
Obliterated in love heart is illuminated.
Shedding all fears both ragged and posh,
Let’s go play in the courtyard of the cosmos!
