The fabric of society has kept changing;
Castes, creeds, clans, and lineages have transformed.
A rich mixture, like many grains cooked together,
Has reshaped the structure of every social class.
Like a web of delicate threads,
Its weave has greatly changed.
Leaving behind the old framework,
It now glows with the colors of a rainbow.
Like a flock blindly following one another,
We kept moving with our eyes closed.
Advancing deeper into a dark cave,
Where have we finally arrived today?
Just as red, green, blue, and yellow
Blend to create countless shades,
So too has humanity evolved
Into innumerable forms and identities.
Religion and duty have become intertwined,
Lineage, traditions, and values have shifted.
Rules and conventions have changed,
As have worship, rituals, and everyday conduct.
A foreign hue has spread
Across every section of society.
In dress, food, and lifestyle,
Even the way we sit, speak, and behave has changed.
A silent conflict continues
Between the older and younger generations.
The old praises the past, the young embrace the new,
While the world sinks deeper into confusion.
“We won’t follow your ways, Grandpa;
Your era has passed away.
Look around at today’s world—
So many new colors have arrived.”
In earlier times,
Families brought many children into the world,
Caring little whether they became
Educated or remained ignorant.
Today we choose not to have children early,
And if we do, perhaps only one or two.
Like planting the finest sugarcane with care,
We hope they will grow as we dream.
With constant new inventions,
Everyone must learn and adapt.
Otherwise, even our own children
May be called uneducated in tomorrow’s world.
The circle of relationships has expanded
Across nations and continents.
New customs are embraced every day,
Often without much reflection.
