Welcome Maa, we, You desperately need.
But not in pandals filled with show n greed.
Required you are, where the poor breed.
Decorated pandals, where millions over feed.
Show off they, their money which does exceed.
With this money, so many poor one could feed.
Educate n clothe them; but no one to this does heed.
Education would, to vocation n employment lead.
Solved thus could be, the ordinary man's need.
Every girl your blessings n protection does need.
For this most important task, O Maa, to You, I plead.
Of n for her security, this NAVRATRI, sow the seed.
Armin Dutia Motashaw.
