Gare ‘a toi’!


Hi, tell me, why ye roar in the jungle
While roaming around for thy prey?
At dark and stormy night
When none dares to bray

Hi, tell me, why ye roar in the jungle
Till the animals make their way?
And the cubs too roar by a den
To celebrate a feast day

‘T is indeed tough to be a man
To live in an endless strife
When ‘t billows up in air
In the garb of a spiritual life

‘Meet and greet’ in the battle ground
‘Name and fame’ may throw ye down
No more wish ye seek out here
But to barter the fertile for a ghost town

Skyscrapers call thy attention
And welcome thee to the Cannes Festival
An irony for the slumdog Millionaire
To spread a message at the interval

Hence the reason, why I’m here
Laughing and ‘njoying my state
At dark and stormy night
When none dares to debate.
