Where else - India

The Guju, The Bihari, The Rajasthani
The Dubai just returned Malayalee
The Madrasi, The Bengalee, The Punjabi.
For instant beauty - a pack of ‘fair & lovely’

Where else does the sun rise on so many different faces?
Where is there unity in so many races?

The banker, the potter, the astrologer, the techie
The teacher, the baker, the beggar, a doctor in Reiki.
The Colonel, the smuggler the executive in the mall
Pay hike, CTC, 'Increment' the biggest problem of them all

The extravagantly rich, the not so, to the penniless poor.
Live together in diversity, beauty and want of more

Samosa, Avial, Bhel Phuri, Chutney
Chicken Biriyani, Kabab, Limited Meals Ready
Payasam, Jamun, Jangiree, hot hot Jalebbi,
Diabetic ice cream 100 % sugar free

A plate of meal, coloured, sweet, curried and spiced
To thrill the tongue and water eyes.


Cyclist, angry motorists, policeman, autos,
No Hand Signal, Traffic Jam, unlimited Pot holes
Cars bikes planes trains jataka
Please sound horn Ok TaTa

In the middle of all this noise, pollution, din and confusion
Sits that cool composed cow, unmoved by motion.


Bollywood, Tollywood, Kollywood, Sandalwood? ouch,
The Hero, the item, the villain, the critic, the couch
Dance, action, music, love in flesh tones gyrate
New release, CD, DVD immediately available pirate.

3 hours of songs, action, dreams and fulfillment
Young beauties chased by actors past retirement.


Weightlifter, Shooter, Cyclist kabadi. Khokho
Athlete on drugs the Olympics please forego.
Sports, Stars, Cricketer, cameraman at silly mid-on
Our chances of winning simply long gone.

We applaud, we cry, we rave, we support with might,
But why can’t those guys in the middle put on a little fight.

Ladder symbol, hand symbol, bicycle symbol.
Please vote for me I won't make life so terrible.
Will end poverty, build roads, bridges and dams,
But also kindly excuse me, I have to make a few grabs

It’s we the people against them and their selves
But we’re proud of our nation as we question – Where else?

India my country
