India is now on the threshold of a social revolution
Give it the backing of an intellectual regeneration
Instead of remaining imprisoned in selfishness and bigotry
Let’s take freedom to think big and cleanse our democracy
Anna Hazare has come out bravely to kindle the flame
It’s time we stood with him boldly to uphold the same
It’s time we raised our voice so high that by its sharpness
All wanton chains that bind our Mother(land) get broken
It’s time we sacrificed our hearts and brains so selflessly
That all those slumbering indifferently will surely be awoken
It’s time all those who work with paper, pen, canvas and mike
For the welfare of our nation, now become more bold and outspoken
It’s time we sought more means, creative and constructive
That will root out corruption and reform the entire nation
It’s time we enlightened the masses, not just rouse them to action
It’s time we strove for conciliation, not confrontation
It’s time for reconstruction, not destruction
It’s time to support Anna Hazare
For the real freedom of our Nation.
