DR DHARMAVIR BHARTI
I’m a broken chariot wheel
but discard me not!
When this impregnable phalanx
engulfs some intrepid Abhimanyu
challenging mighty armies
I may come in handy.
When great warriors of renown
partisans of Devil
sunk in their career of crime
determined on smothering
with deadly weapons doomed
the solitary voice unarmed
I may outmatch their munitions
I’m a broken chariot wheel
but discard me not!
When the massive pageant of history
suddenly drifts into a false course
the broken chariot wheel
may herald and proclaim the Truth.
(Translated from “History� Dr. Ravi S. Varma)
