They drove me out of my home and made a refugee of me. They took my house and property and rendered me a homeless pauper. They threw my centuries-old heritage in the dustbin of history. They stripped me naked and laughed at my shame. I shouted for help; the world remained silent. All that is left of me is my name. Now they want to change that too and make me one like them, but, I will defy it till my last breath! | |
