Excerpts from Muktibodh's poem "Andhere Mein"

lyrics

Oh my idealistic heart
Oh my dogmatic self
What have we done so far?
How have we lived?

We became greedy and soulless
Like the guests at a ghost wedding
Like the bed of an adulterer

Wore our sorrow-stains like badges,
Enveloped by our own thoughts day and night
Suffering a sexless intellect in solitude
Life became a stagnant basement
What have we done so far?
How have we lived?
Tell me, for whom did you run?
Alas...averted your eyes from sorry displays
Became a stone, took as much as you could
and gave as little
The nation died, you survived
See, you kicked out the benevolent father
And exiled motherly compassion
You adopted the terriers of selfishness
abandoned the duties of emotion
assassinated the suggestions of your heart
and crushed the very essence of intellect
uprooted the hands of logic
frozen, jammed, stuck in
the quicksand of your own making
you fried discretion in your greed
and gobbled up your ideals

What have we done so far?
How have we lived?
took as much as you could
and gave as little
The nation died, you survived
