Krishna in olden days

Oh Krishna, in days of old, monarchies did unfold, Yet they didn't force one hue on citizens, we’re told. In diverse regions, your forms they did adore, In the west, east, south, and north, you they implore.

Unity in your message, pure with love and grace, As Arjuna's charioteer, you did embrace. No instigation to fight, but peace you'd share, Saktas, Kapalikas, all found solace in your care.

Supreme reality, in myriad forms it gleams, No compulsion then, in those ancient dreams. But now, in the people's republic, it seems, Forcing one path, against the flowing streams.

Is this not against your many facets, divine? Oh Krishna, with your smiling face, align. Unite us all, in harmony's golden twine, In the name of love and humanness, let us shine.

~ Dr Intaj Malek
