Elections

 Elections

Speeches have ended
Speeches have ended
But lies have not

Rallies have ended
Rallies have ended
But TV interviews have not

Convoys have ended
Convoys have ended
But the politicians’ movement has not

Promises have ended
Promises have ended
But controversies have not

Crores have been spent
Crores have been spent
But accounts have not been given

Elections have ended
Elections have ended
But confusion has not

Patriotism was spoken
Patriotism was spoken
But hate has not ended

Leaders have been elected
Leaders have been elected
But leadership is not demonstrated

People have voted
People have voted
But their pain will never end

Politics is a game of fooling
Politicians are the players
People are the fools who take sides

Whoever wins
Whoever wins
It is the people who lose
It is the people who lose

Earn a living
Take care of yourself
Protect yourself and your family
Stand with the nation, not with the politician
That’s what patriotism is —
The rest is jingoism

M.L. Narendra Kumar
