Satyarthi
Ye men of God and letter
Show thy grace
And let me know who I am
My name is Ashok,
And my forefathers named after deities
You call me hindu like yourselves
But I believe you not. as the word
Did not exist eons ago, when the land of Bharata
Reverberated with Vedic hymns chanted by sages
Nor do I find it mentioned
In vedas,puranas, upanishadas and shruties
Then why, please tell me why
We accept identity given by outsiders
And forget who really we are
Please tell me why you perpetuate what is untrue.
