Otherwise reasonable

Otherwise reasonable people
Jumped with joy
When they heard about Kashmir
Saying, Now things will become normal

Otherwise reasonable people
Applauded the Supreme Court
Judgement on Ayodhya
Saying, Now there will be peace

Otherwise reasonable people
Said that students should study
Not protest against
What they don’t understand

Otherwise reasonable people
Have lost the use of their reason
So we need to call them unreasonable now

We cannot fight unreason with reason
We cannot fight criminal minds with due democratic process
And so now it is the young who are showing us
How to fight the good fight
