Where…

 

Prof. Hazara Singh

 

Where equality is never grudged

Dignity of individual is not robbed

And economic justice is not blocked

Such a set-up improves human wealth.

 

Where worth, not the birth-factors, weigh

Beauty of conduct, not of face, is adored

And law strives to reform, not suppress

Such a system keeps enhancing excellence.

 

Where ritualism is not a way of life

Practice conforms with the precept

And blessings beguile not, but impress

 Such a social code has virtuous effect

 

Where avarice ransacks not mother earth

Lust ravishes not the innocent beings

And prejudice bypasses not real merit

Such restraints steadily elevate man.

 

Where present is boldly faced and shaped

Past is not pursued, bewitched by myths

And the mirage of future casts no spell

Such attitudes form an edifying quest.
