Be a Whistle Blower Bold

There is thick cloud of gloom all around
With no gleam of hope anywhere found
Things are not what they outwardly seem
Loose not faith; be a whistle-blower bold.

The situation surely seems insurmountable
Scaring away a few good people; sensible
The evil in the society is absolutely horrible
Loose not hope; be a whistle-blower bold.

There is no advantage in running away
This strengthens the corrupt and greedy
The time has arrived to face it squarely
Loose not courage; be a whistle-blower bold.

Those who ought to set right the things
Are themselves neck deep in shady deals
A few bold are resisting it by raising voices
Join their chorus; be a whistle-blower bold.

It is never too late to end vice and corruption
And wash the dirt from the society’s linen
To make ours a very sound and fit nation
Be firm in resolve; be a whistle-blower bold.
