Jaiho youth! Jaiho rural India!

Hello, Charming youth,vibrant youth!
Out here, out there, out our whole of India!
Come on! Educate, empower yourself
Stay put in your villages, villages need you
Educate , empower others in your villages,
Bring schools, colleges, hospitals,banks, shops
What so and what not to your village folds,

Think alternative, think livelihood methods to
Support ,supplant agriculture
Let there be holy cow farms, bee keeping,
Cobar gas plants, common ponds to pool
Harvest rain water, learn do carpentry,
Energy efficient buildings, go solar, go windy
Reap solar, reap wind energy,
Link upto the world with internet, communication

Hello, my dear outside youth too
Move to villages, villages need you too
To imbibe fresh thinking, fresh blood
Into our body of agriculture
Get settled there to make it grow
Form week end teams to volunteer in villages
To enrich, enlighten the soul our rural India
Uplift, long live, Jaiho youth, jaiho rural India!


-Mohan Sanjeevan
