Tagore perfect

From his English translation:

Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the
dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by Thee into ever-widening
thought and action -
Into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake.

Yes, I hope YOUR country, Sri lanka, awakes and stops committing genocide of the Tamil people. And that MY country, TAMIL EELAM, is set free.

Mohammed,

You be confused, young man.

There's no such thing and if there were it's not for chaps called Mohammed by the way (The word "Tamil" in Tamil Eelam may be a wee hint)!

Oh dear.

Mohammed said...

we're tamil speakers... and i'd prefer a separate state to being part of SL

by the way, it's very big of you to be friends with Leah and defend her after her father played you out your father like he did

oh dear indeed

Mohammed said...

Poor little Mohammed,
So so bitter. I'm sure you had a spurned crush on Leah. Or maybe me.

You're so brave while you're anonymous!

Back to the topic:
Since you're so smart I'm sure you're quite aware of this too:

Good luck!

Oops, I forgot.
No more Eelam left.
