Neither for you,
nor for me.
Neither for the Soldier,
nor for the Farmer.
Neither for Country,
Neither for Mother Earth.
Neither for rooting out evil,
Nor for ushering in good days.
It is all a plea,
To fool you and me.
nor for me.
Neither for the Soldier,
nor for the Farmer.
Neither for Country,
Neither for Mother Earth.
Neither for rooting out evil,
Nor for ushering in good days.
It is all a plea,
To fool you and me.

ना आपका,
ना हमारा ।
ना हमारा ।
ना जवानों का,
ना किसानों का ।
ना किसानों का ।
ना देश कि,
ना धरती कि ।
ना धरती कि ।
ना बुराइ रोकने,
ना अच्छाइ बढ़ाने ।
ना अच्छाइ बढ़ाने ।
ये तो है बाहाने,
हमे अंगूठाछाप जो बनाने ।
हमे अंगूठाछाप जो बनाने ।

ନା ଆପଣଙ୍କର,
ନା ମୋର ।
ନା ଆପଣଙ୍କର,
ନା ମୋର ।
ନା ସୈନ୍ୟଙ୍କର,
ନା ଚାଷୀଙ୍କର ।
ନା ଚାଷୀଙ୍କର ।
ନା ଦେଶର,
ନା ଧରିତ୍ରୀର ।
ନା ଧରିତ୍ରୀର ।
ନା ଦୂଷ୍କର୍ମ କମିବା ପାଇଁ,
ନା ଭଲ ଦିନ ଆସିବା ପାଇଁ ।
ନା ଭଲ ଦିନ ଆସିବା ପାଇଁ ।
ଇଏ ସବୁ ବାହାନା,
ଆମକୁ ଭୂତ୍ତେଇବାର ଯୋଜନା ।
ଆମକୁ ଭୂତ୍ତେଇବାର ଯୋଜନା ।
This is a republic day thought. A trilingual post (in English, Hindi and Odia). It may sound pessimistic, but do read between the lines for ushering in some optimism. While I started writing, I had Aadhaar in mind (note the last sentence in the Hindi post). But, then ... For some Aadhaar related blogs of mine, see.
Right to Privacy, Aadhaar and Democracy (also re-posted at LSE blog)
Aadhaar, Radiagate and Cablegate
