spirit of mumbai
The secret of spirit of Mumbai
Cut to pieces, bled to death
Scared of what next, out of options
we continue to live our fate
This is “Spirit” of Mumbai
Babus to CM, MP to PM
Everyone busy with their crores
Who cares if a few die on roads
Very handy this “Spirit of Mumbai”
Peaceful Hinduism loving it’s neighbours
“India shining” reflecting in the shoes of Americans
The myth creators of state and the centre
To hide cowardice,
Very useful this …”Spirit of Mumbai”
Ram and Krishna wore arms
Amba and Durga have them in their hands
The whole nation has become Arjun
Doing nothing but waiting for one Krishna
Confused, inactive… The real “Spirit of Mumbai”
Fear of change and loss of power
Money, comfort and loss of glamor
No action against neighbours game
Five year term is the only aim…
So we donot say that we are a nation being castrated…
Spirit of Mumbai…is what we invented
But was the “spirit” invented with Babar’s arrival ?
Or when Britain took over ?
Waiting for one god to rescue us
Now too we chat, tweet and perpetuate the godly “Spirit of Mumbai”
We must maintain this “Spirit of Mumbai”
As our true spirit has left us long time ago.
People dying on front and in cities
We offer them all goodies
We will talk how Osama was killed
Ignoring that there is nothing that WE did
We deserve to be slave nation
Once again we will lose our freedom
And then there will be stories….
A long time ago
Free India was great country..
And then we had that beautiful thing in past..
Called “The Spirit of Mumbai”
