Unheralded unsung she is,
In all seven books of Ramayana
For the poet in me, Sati she is,
Even greater than Sita in purity.

More quotes by Haldhar Nag

Poetry must have real-life connection and a message for the people.

On everyone’s lips there was this talk.
Triumph is never for the poor folk;
Water always downward flows,
Fault to the deprived always goes.

Everyone is a poet, but only a few have the art of giving them shape.

I cannot read, write or understand English so cannot compare the original and translated work.

The money I earn now by selling my body, I shall spend
To buy heaps of dowry, when I go as a bride newlywed.
