This was composed after the declaration of the results of general elections in 2014
The verdict is out,
Our electorate is restless.
Their angst is expressed only through the ballots,
Aren't we fortunate?
Our electorate is restless.
Their angst is expressed only through the ballots,
Aren't we fortunate?
Ups and downs are a way
of life,
What goes up must go down,
And what is down can come up,
Then who can say someone is unfortunate?
What goes up must go down,
And what is down can come up,
Then who can say someone is unfortunate?
Old order gave way to a new one,
Celebrations are in the air,
But there lies a mammoth task ahead,
Isn't it to early to say, the victors are fortunate?
Celebrations are in the air,
But there lies a mammoth task ahead,
Isn't it to early to say, the victors are fortunate?
Mass hysteria will soon give way to critical evaluation,
The new powers-that-be better deliver,
And prove to we the People of India and the World,
That they are indeed made of sterner stuff,
Else, won't the World say to us "Oh, you are really unfortunate"?
The new powers-that-be better deliver,
And prove to we the People of India and the World,
