CONSTITUTION


Constituion isn't some books name, 
nor is it a fresh weapon from some nuclear arsenal, 
A blue stretch of a sky, 

A bird exuberent attempt to fly, 
A cry of a gurgling brook, 
A prism of some jubilent vision. 
Or is it some plastic plaything? 
The question like showers of monsoons are battering plains of our mind. 
Tell me which book of mantras; 
which fragment of a blue sky, 
Or which network of some novel game you would distribute. 
Do you know constitution isn't a name of some new chocolate advertised by television? 
Constitution is a country's youth 

It's a turbulent brook and it's quaking bank 
It's an idea, an outlook and a vision; 
A boat and it continuous journey. 
Don't tell me its just a book 

It's a sun 
It's a sky and its a blue dream 

(Translated by: Yuyutsu R. D, Sharma)
