Samir,
Thanks for stirring up Bakibab's words in my memory. They move me every time I
hear them. I think lamondive lamb should be lamondive praann - oil lamps
became souls or breaths.
I am hoping that you have hit a nerve among the Goan populace - said to them
zayath zage, words of another great man.
Best,
Santosh

The lion of Aguada, you woke us up!
How I pine to live in that sacred place called Aguada
Prison, where my
father spent a year during the freedom struggle!
It was a temple, and it is time to restore it its temple
status back again.
In Bakibab's ( B. B. Borkar, the great poet's words) words
(and I wish this was in Devanagari) during the freedom
struggle:
Goenchem naav whod korunk,
lhan zale mhaan,
bondkonichim devlam zali,
lamondive lamb!
( To make Goa great, the small became big.
The prisons turned into temples!)
Jai Hind!
