The Bay of Bengal is a child in your lap | O |
My heart wild poetry in your map I will remove | P |

I will plant the eyes of tigers in the faces of my people and insert | S |
The sabre teeth of lions into their brains | T |
Look At the Charminar now it is not pigeons but stones that will rain | U |
