For Global Peace with Social Justice in a Sustainable Environment
Our army has come
Defying police degradation,
Tossing aside traditition,
We have come!
Dalit, Battered woman, worker, farmer
In an army together,
We have come!
To end dowry, rape, misused authority,
To stop wife-beating and cruelty,
We have come!
To wipe women’s suppression,
To remove class oppression,
To free this humanity-
In a morcha we have come!
From Hill, Dock and Railway Shed,
Inspite of owner’s threat and dread
We have come!
Look! Look! You blind exploiter tyrant-
Our army has come!
To destroy Injustice, our army has come!
Originally written in Hindi by Vibhuti Patel in March, 1982.
