This is enough

Monday, April 19th, 2010

You've the Brahmastra,

good for you.

 

You've the Paashupatastra,

good for you.

 

You've the Vishnu Chakra,

good for you.

 

You've Arjuna's Gandeeva,

Bhima's mace, Drona's tuft

good for you.

 

You've Rama's bow,

Anjaneya's tail,

Parasurama's sword,

good for you.

 

You've power, you've glory,

good for you

You've that..this..

good for you

that..this..you can keep.

 

We've only Ekalavya's

left thumb

still left with us,

this is enough for us

to fight with you…

 

My translation of the Telugu poem 'ennunTEnEm?' (from the 1996 collection of Dalit poetry, 'padunekkina pATa') by Suryavamshi.
