|| THE LEADER: A Tribute to B R Ambedkar on His Birth Anniversary || By Kunal Roy

THE LEADER

Born among Dalits,
You witnessed their deprivation!
An inspiration dawned on you,
Your soul woke up!
Your heart bled,
your mind bloated-
with the anguish of the downtrodden.
Looked down by the rest,
caste estranged from the social fabric,
brought tears in your eyes,
yet you didn’t give up-
simply alien to your mental make up!
You vowed to fight for their rights!!
Gradually the bell was ordered-
to proclaim the hour,
You became the leader,
of the mass,
tormented so long!
Exhibited your mettle,
in the chosen domains.
Politics,
Social affairs,
Economics,
began your day!
You stood out of the crowd,
framed the norms confined in a book!
Scripted the destiny-
of the neglected clan!
Emerged victorious,
The rights were embraced,
mingled with the prime stream,
Flowing into the gurgling ocean of the earth!
Years have rolled by,
your grace has not faded yet,
your honour hasn’t budged yet,
your unparalleled hegemony,
Still rule the roost!
The celebration is here,
The candles are lit-
 ironically,
 no one to blow them off!
 Yet-
 the lights embellish the garden of Paradise,
where the Lords reside,
utter the words of divinity,
far away from the earth,
far away from the material touch,
far away from the mortal illusions!!
