Voice of Dalit



If you and I are the same color
How we differ.
If you and I have the same land
How do we discriminate?
Is it because I am Nandan's caste?
You still refuse to let me into the Diroupathi Temple?
Is it because I am of Emmanuel descent?
Still you refuse me to speak equally with you.
You carry all the immigrants on your head.
For centuries
I am the one race living with you.
Why do you call me your slave?
Remember only one thing,
We are the slaves of vedic Varnas
You and I are different is a trick of time.
 Me with you, You with me
 are Fighting is a
 Contemporary view.
 All those who came through the Khyberbolan pass,
 They still rule the country.
 We belong to this land
 still settled in Colonies.
Change is not instantaneous.
Fight and make a revolution
 We are the freedom panthers of this land.
 Take back your lost land.
 Let no one put you down from now on, and
 Become the ruling class.
