Ode to Laxmanaand
O benivolent Laxmanand I weep whenever you visit my memory spiel
You were pious, righteous,Hindu spiritual soul
You were helping tribal Kandh of Odisha
By advice for doing cultivation in modern manner
To them You were very very dear
To them you were very very near
But destiny had very cruel design
For your love and compassion you earned wrath of worst people living in neighbourhood
Even at the ripe age of eighty four
Even life lead as an old
Had not filled in brutal killers'mind
Heavenly kindness so desired
With might of mindless madness they brutally killed
They deformed your body cutting genital limbs
I don't know what philosophy make them cruel killers.I pray to God may your soul rest in heavenly abode.
