No one opts
No one opts for it unless forced
Inner soul feels guilty with remorse
Yet that is compulsion
No one desires it with simple question
It is curse to be called beggar
*Daridranarayan* in new avatar
Daily asking blessings for little food
Appeals to all in the neighborhood
Charity is not offered daily
It is done with curse really
No one parts it with smiling face
Only left over food is offered in such cases
Body is capable to work but no backing
No one thinks of utilizing their skill and stacking
Their place for honorable living is not though over
Payment for real labor is denied and offered no sheler
Yes some kind of rehabilitation is warranted
Their place in society is hopefully wanted
They are very much part of society but not blessed one
God has given them hands but they are helplessly chased
I shall only think and do nothing
Express pity but deny offer for something
The beggar passes off along with our feeling
Our sympathy remains behind as concealed
It is gigantic task and needs some consideration
Not all can be rehabilitated at one place with concentration
Many may still want to be in same position
As it provides them no other alternative habilitation
*Daridranarayan… God's incarnation
