Ours is a nation that is not wicked
Ours is a nation nurtured by respect for every woman
Ours is a home where children are born of grand ceremonial weddings
which are celebrated with music, pomp and gaiety
as the rich or poor father's purse and pride permits;
ours is a nation where no divorces are encouraged
ours is that country where woman is the child -bearer of our generations
ours is that country where woman is the supreme institution of modesty
ours is that country where temples revere women deities as goddesses
yet in that helm of entertainment how can our women
be made to dance in the dance bars to earn their livelihood
when our national leaders have been women and are women today
when our teachers and principals in schools and colleges are women today
when our scientists and street sweepers are women today
when our judges and advocates are women today
how can we allow our sisters and daughters to be idols of entertainment
when with age and time will vanish vigour and beauty
what is the assurance then
that the dance bar girls of today
will not be beggars tomorrow?
