O! Mahatma Gandhi!
You taught us non-violence
But we slaughter easily
Our own sisters and brothers

We create an institution
To promote your ideals
Yet we subject to ordeal
The destitute of our nation

Bride-burning and bribery
Casteism and untouchability
We puff in snobbery
Losing our accountability

O! Mahatma! Do not weep and curse
This beloved nation of ours
When the books of your messages
Are used only for binding packages
