The Hunger for Existence
[to Prashant]

how suddenly the Kanchenjungha was expanded
that within the hugeness of India
the Prashant waves arose
and this sublimity concealed our restless entity

touching always the lips of mother
the unheard ages of hailing word 'o baby'
those were the grave times of our hunger and thirst

but the words for burning sensation of this hunger
tones for the agitation of this thirst
weren't succumbed within us
and how these thirst and hunger came in togetherness
smashing up the walls of caste and creed

so the hills also can be spread as plains
hearts where the songs echo aren't desolated
thus the tale where we read the extension of mountains
this is the rule of our history making

o we were the fragments divided in global map
we were the creators of boundaries and the army of prejudices
resounded where from a wild voice like a wind
this made the domain of our thought

yes the heart is named to pervade like this
there the soul awakes and the body dies.
