Lamenting the curbs put on expression of truth and free thought |
| FREEDOM—a ghazal By all I am shunned today. I’m disillusioned today. For speaking out bare truth, I have been interned today. Takers of truth are but few. This fact I have learned today. One day truth will yet prevail, Though I have been spurned today. By your vitriolic words, My heart has been burned today. Backward in the logic book, A page you have turned today. I am aghast at your thoughts. My mind has been churned today. Khalish, why in freedom’s name, Freedom is adjourned today? *** A ghazal consists of couplets having a well- defined rhyming pattern and, often, refrain. For a detailed note on ghazal, please see "WHAT IS A GHAZAL AND HOW TO WRITE IT?"  M C Gupta ‘Khalish’ 9 September 2004 |
