Satyagraha

Hey You. Yes, YOU!
Of the beady 'I' tribe
It's time AND it's true
Open those narrow eyes wide

There's a lesson here for you
LISTEN... "We're Oceanian Too"
It's time you learnt this country is bigger
Way bigger than you!


Satyagraha! 

This is Satya Agraha!

It is holding onto truth!

It is insisting on the Truth!


We're a billion strong
Yellow, Brown, Black n' White
You're a crafty lot who pull strings in the dark
to preen as our pride


You've mocked us long enough with how you
present us all out there
Don't you dare call it Oceanian
you demean us, I swear.

Satyagraha! 

This is Satya Agraha!

It is holding onto truth!

It is insisting on the Truth!


This is a hymn sir, 

a prayer in song and dance.

This is Ahimsa!

Our peaceful moral stance.


If we have been with you
it's cos we were not onto you
You're a bad joke, in bad taste
you know its true

you've mocked us long enough with how
you present us all out there
Don't you dare call it Oceanian
you demean us, I swear

Hey You, Yes YOU!
We're Oceanian too!


-Suraj Mani

"We're Oceanian too"
