stripping of conventional dresses, today's youth are
roaming on the street roads
like a tree which lost all leaves and greenery
today's youth are passing the time
the energy of teens is wasted by watching Idiot Boxes
life less are todays youth
as they spend time in discos and clubs
like the cracks in the Great wall of China
their lives are cracked
instead of protecting the country
the youth are roaming without destination
they are becoming preys to lumpen elements and anti social goons
they easily fall in the traps of underworld dons
in the name of culture,
the youth are slaves to drugs , alcohol and smoking
not only ruins themselves but the country also
o ! my dear youngsters
open your eyes
see what is hapenning around you
play constructive role
become good citizens of the country
keepup the cultural values.
This is the transalation ( not professionally) of my poem in telugu ' o youvatha - kallu teru'
