Wealth has divided more houses than kept together.

One half of the nation is ill-housed.

One half of our people are ill-clad.

One half of our people are ill-nourished.

So little done, so much to do !

 

What crimes are committed in the name of progress ?

What money is collected in the name of religion?

What  scams are operated in the name of prosperity ?

 Oh ! my country, when and where will all this end?
