The Village Will Give Them

- Dr. Shailesh Veer
They went from village to metropolis in search of work
They accepted that metropolis as their own
They handed over their blood and sweat there
They had also set some dreams for their future
In one stroke, the metros pushed them back
They have now returned to their own village as migrants
The village will give them the courage to live again
The village will shelter them again
The village will not let them starve!
