Utkal Divas

If you want to find how people are same across
Looks at them at airports, visit shopping malls, pubs
See them on freeways and long highways, hotels
Eating common food, listening to similar music

If you want to see how people are diverse and unique
Look at them on their festivals, know their god,
Know their food, get to know their music, dance
Listen to their folklore, try to understand their ethos

Yesterday was such a wonderful occasion to know our 
Odiya and Sambalpuri friends, brothers and sisters
We listened to their music and signing, saw their Odissi
Got to know their divine stories and the Lord Jaganndh 
Satiated our tongues and stomachs with delicious food

Bande Utkal Janani, Bande Utkal Janani, Bande Utkal Janani
Janani, Janani, Janani

What a memorable day, thank you all.
