Gone are those days.....

Gone are the days of black and white television
Then we gave an undiluted attention
For colour television was never an aspiration
Neither was it an option
But with advanced technology
That had become an apology

Gone are the days of analogue telephony
Then mobile communication was not a honey
But with advanced technology
That had become an apology



Gone are the days when everyone was proud of this nationality
Then all gave a complete loyalty
To the upliftment of this ground
And the development of this land
But with advanced technology
That had become an apology

Gadget created for the good of humanity
Had become an entity
For amassing personal fame and glory
Without care for the well-being of the country

They had become instruments for projecting people's name
Leaving behind shame
Their contribution
To the development of the nation

Gone are those days
When being a true citizen pays
