१०० वर्ष की बुढ़िया संग बलात्कार हुआ
पढ़कर ये खबर देश शर्मसार हुआ
उज्जवल भारत के सपने देखे थे जिन आँखों ने
देख कर ये भविष्य ह्रदय में पीड़ा, मन में भय आपार हुआ
१०० वर्ष की बुढ़िया संग बलात्कार हुआ
पढ़कर ये खबर देश शर्मसार हुआ
जिन हाथों को देता कोई सहारा
जिस माँ को था हर बच्चा प्यारा
उसी बूढ़े जिस्म पर अत्याचार हुआ
१०० वर्ष की बुढ़िया संग बलात्कार हुआ
पढ़कर ये खबर देश शर्मसार हुआ
पढ़ना लिखना भारतीय होना सब बेकार हुआ
जिस क्षण भारतीय प्रान्त में ऐसा दुराचार हुआ
१०० वर्ष की बुढ़िया संग बलात्कार हुआ
पढ़कर ये खबर देश शर्मसार हुआ
-अनुष्का सूरी
This poem has been written after reading the painful news of a 100 year old woman raped by a drunk youth in Uttar Pradesh. It is unfortunate that Indian value system is no more given importance by youth. The disastrous impact of alcohol on human intellect is clearly demonstrated via this incident. It is also a sorry state of affairs for law, ethics and morality in India. I feel ashamed to read such a news story in India.
Here is an English translation:
A 100 year old woman was raped
The entire country (India) is ashamed after reading this news
The eyes which had dreamt about a bright and developed India
Seeing this future, the heart is full of pain and the mind is fearful
A 100 year old woman was raped
The entire country (India) is ashamed after reading this news
The hands which could have been comforted by the young
A mother for whom every child was dear
Her old, weak body was mishandled
A 100 year old woman was raped
The entire country (India) is ashamed after reading this news
It is futile to be educated or be called an Indian as I read this news today
The moment such a heinous crime was committed in a sector of the land of spirituality- India
A 100 year old woman was raped
The entire country (India) is ashamed after reading this news
