BEWARE. Of 1962
Dr K Prabhakar Rao
There was once an Ostrich
it buried its head in a heap of sand
the foolish bird claimed there was no enemy
While the enemy butchered it in its own land
India is a foolish state
That neglects it own armed force
The state would learn in a hard way
While Indians have no remorse
When Nehru was on top of ladder
Menon was the minister of Defence
India slept singing Chini Hindi Bhai Bhai
while the Chinese were preparing to cross the fence
Nehru had his own unfounded fad
While Menon suffered greatest ego
General Thimmayya led the India army
Who was sure that India would become a DODO
tensions at borders worsened to the hilt
While Chinese crossed over on to our land
throw out the Chinese. Nehru blared
while The Chinese marched in playing their band
Indian army fought with great valor and grit
while our troops were ruthlessly mowed down
India lost thousands of square miles of the land
While the Chinese were close to Tezpur town
India saved its face at last in the grim state
When The American President warned the yellow men
India was on streets with begging bowls
with Shame writ large that is difficult to pen
Nehrus morale shattered like bomb shell
while Menon was axed after a blood bath
The shame India suffered haunts us even today
Hope our leaders are not treading Nehrus path
