The Avatar Is Behind The Bars Poem by Akhtar Jawad
The Avatar Is Behind The Bars
I never thought,
rather I never Imagined,
Kans will be born once again,
and this time,
his queens will not take their baths in milk
rather they will take their baths in blood!
Last time the avatar travelled from Jamna to Gujrat
After taking bath in the clean water of Jamna
and a flute scattering the tunes of love
to kill the devil of Gujrat.
This time the devil travelled from Gujrat to Jamna,
after taking bath in the blood of innocent people,
and instead of a flute he has gone there with poisons,
he snatched the flute from Krishna,
and broke it down into pieces,
he locked Krishna with his Bhagvad Gita
The helpless avatar is behind the bars.
Still I am hopeful.
Radha is free and with other gopies
she has declared war against the devil,
with her base at an university on the bank of Jamna,
she is fighting.
Bravo Radha!
Though you are injured but I know
when a woman comes in the battle field
like Noor Jehan she gets Jahangir free,
I am sure Radha and the gopies will get the avatar free
Kans will be killed,
Krishna will be be freed,
a pleasant surprise Radha is no more jealous with the flute,
I see a new flute in her hands,
the tune of love this time
is being played by the great Radha.
and finally it is again a woman who plays the central role and saves the country. IF she had never known Lord Krishna, she would never be known. Thank you so much for sharing these loveliest words, it had to be epic, but since your special talents in brevity, the epic historical poem has become the most understandable brevity, which I surely have enjoyed and admired.
No more blood was shed now, only pure water. This poem is like a mirror for Jahangir, the emperor who has no talents in conquering countries, but rules and prevails in art and culture. Not by cruelty has its victory, but just by true love, again a great poem about love you so admirably create, Sir! I have truly enjoyed this battle between the great names
What an impressing poem, Akhtar Sir! This is a very interesting one about ancient history, but the moral is the same, it is about Love, and finally Love always wins. Kamsa had been crushed by the flute of love, which was played by Radha. First she hates the flute, but Radha’s true love for Lord Krishna, she then loves this instrument and sets him free and before this she conquered the devil.
The poem reflects your anguish and concern over the developments taking place in your neighborhood. I am impressed by your knowledge of mythology and its juxtaposition to the present day situation in India.
