HARD TRUTHS



                                
                               HARD TRUTHS

                            Dr K Prabhakar Rao

Muslims ruled India for hundreds of years
Yet the races did not merge in the land
Many sultans treated Hindus as mere rotten stuff
And they wanted all to play to their band

At times there were hopes and sun rays
While some Sultans  cared  and removed strife
Soon the  darkness spread all around
As a new guy destroyed all with a stroke of knife

At last the English took over the nation
And they looted the country with all  their might
Indians were razed to the ground as mere slaves
Although many felt freedom was their right

The anger rose soon into a  great bloody  war
Where some  fought with vigor and lost lives
Many saved their lives and played to the  tune
And  happily slept with their wives in beehives

At last the restless Englishmen left the dried-up land
And they however sucked the nation to the last drop
The nation was split into  two to please some guys
The hatred never ceased and continued without a stop

Streams of blood never  ceased to flow
While wars were fought  to settle scores
The hand  of friendship was a mere mirage
While in  hearts of all were many oozing sores

Mughals  vanished from the land long ago
While a new clan started its eternal rule
The guys have mastered the art of scams
While people vote like a mere dud mule

Tonnes of money is siphoned off by goons
While the rulers  can not reveal the thugs
All goes on behind   dark curtains
And many are in hand and gloves with a bear hug

The nation is  now in great peril and distress
As the leaders want  power come what may
Ethics and morals have vanished long ago
And these men for power  will  eat grass and hay
