These are the hands of labor
The hands that bring food,
for 40 Rupees a day!...
View On Black
This is the scholar whose immortal pen
Spells the first lesson hunger taught to men;
“Labor”
His name is Ravnit, 14 years old
he weaves rugs for a living
his father wove rugs and his father’s father too…
This is his family trade
Not the rug weaving,
But the hands that bring food!!!
40 Rupees = $1.00 USD
