This is a song is from the second CD of Kabir Kala Manch called –Rajya Daman Virodhi shahiri, ok aadhar par khadha jan andolan – song is called -JAITAPURCHYA NAVAN by RAMESH GAICHOR, who is now languishing in arthur road jail in Mumbai
Chernobyl was destroyed, Fukushima was ruined
Now the nuclear disaster is scheduled to hit Jaitapur (2)
Nuclear power is very dangerous
The Uranium tender is destructive
Toxic nuclear waste of thousands of years –
How will we deal with the explosion of the nuclear reactor?
Nuclear science experts are goddamn liars,
Riding a wave of delusive science.
(Refrain)
All pimps have gathered here,
opposition parties with saffron flags
This is a market of ravens,
one corrupt than the other
Thieves and dacoits surround us,
Some adorn khadi, some wear khaki
(Refrain)
The radiation poisoning will spread
Konkan will soon be converted into a crematorium
This poison called radiation will spread into how many things?
Poison will enter the alphonso mangoes
Poison will enter flesh of the jackfruit
Poison will enter cashews and jamun
Poison will enter Palm trees
Poison will enter parboiled rice
Poison will enter raagi roti
Poison will enter karavanda (black berries), kokam
Poison will enter unshelled rice
Poison will enter fish curry
Poison will enter prawns and other clams and crabs
Poison will enter cow’s milk
Poison will enter sweet honey
Poison will enter suru-forest
Poison will enter flowers and leaves
Poison will enter festival of shimga (holi fire)
Poison will enter grains and particles
Poison will enter sea waves
Poison will enter farms, fields and irrigation water canals
Poison will enter soil of Konkan
Poison will enter folks of Konkan
Mother’s milk will be poisonous
The Western Ghats will turn poisonous
(Refrain)
The mall owners need high voltage of electricity
And also three star and five star hoteliers
Bungalow owners, high and mighty people
They will drive away all locals
They will make a beggar out of the king of the sea
To embellish their lavish lives
(Refrain)
Let us carry the flag of Bharat
Let us remember Kabir’s sacrifice
We will light the fire of movement
Will knock them back if they knock us
No looking back now, let us march forward
Let us walk the path of Nandigram
(Refrain)
Translation – Jayashree Joshi
