The Right To Know
My dreams have the right to know Why for centuries they have been breaking
Why don’t they ever come true
My hands have the right to know Why do they remain without work all along
Why do they have nothing to do
My feet have the right to know
Why from village to village they walk on their own
Why are there no signs of a bus yet
My hunger has the right to know
Why grain rots in godowns
While I don’t even get a fistful of rice
My old mother has the right to know
Why are there no medicines
Needles, dispensaries or bandages
My children have the right to know
Why do they labour day and night
Why is there no school in sight
What is your favourite line in the above song?
