Hello Mr. White,
Let me count the bricks
on the wall that stands
in between us:
One: a brick of religion
Two: a brick of caste
Three: a brick of class
Four: a brick of status
Five: a brick of food
Six: a brick of language
Seven: a brick of race...
Yes ! you're White!
Now Mr. White,
Let me count the branches
on the same tree that link
us each other:
One: a branch of blood
Two: a branch of emotion
Three: a branch of tear
Four: a branch of hunger
Five: a branch of death...
Yes ! we're Human!
OK. Mr. White,
Let me count the golden steps
I passed in the ladder that keeps
me in a better position than you:
One: a step of innocence
Two: a step of justice
Three: a step of truth
Four: a step of virtue
Five: a step of love
Six: a step of kindness...
Above all I am an Indian!
