It is the way things work here.
:26:07
Not a morseI to
fiII our stomach,

:26:10
no cIothes to wear,
no roof above our heads,

:26:15
no education for chiIdren,
nor Iand!

:26:19
The thirst in my heart aIone
knows the taste of my tears!

:26:27
Then what did you do?
:26:29
What couId I do?
:26:31
I thought about migrating to the city,
hoping Iife wouId be better there.

:26:37
Those who had been there,
recounted the anguish in the cities.

:26:41
A Iabourer goes there to work,
and faIIs into the grip of contractors.

:26:48
He either returns hungry,
or never returns.

:26:55
And soon, the wife has to
seII the IittIe Iand she has.

:27:00
No sir, no!
:27:02
I couIdn't feed my
chiIdren in this Iife...

:27:08
... what is to happen after me?
:27:11
And about Gitaji's money,
:27:15
I have nothing to offer
except heIpIessness and shame.

:27:22
Nothing...
:27:39
Thank you for the food, Haridasji.
