Farewell Lalbagh Cha Raja

Farewell Lalbagh Cha Raja, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

tomorrow
the greatest event
of mumbai
will come to an end
the king of kings
lalbagh cha raja
a few memorable days
in the hearts of his people
he spent
to his home in the seas
they will send
in a sea of vermilion
he will blend
ganpati bappa morya
purcha varshi laokar ya
hopes as blessings
with good intend
at nagpada junction
the muslims
will felicitate him
children women
young old
back bent
lalbagh cha raja
beyond caste
color or creed
everyone's friend
broken hearts
broken fences
he will mend
reaching out
a message of
tolerance
a message of
mutual existence
he will extend
lalbagh cha raja
remover of obstacles
blindfolded
you can depend

shree ashtavinayaka
shree siddhi vinayaka
a tribute in all humility
