A whisper, a stone, a heart takes the blow,
A whisper, a stone, a heart takes the blow,
A whisper, a stone, a heart takes the blow,
A whisper, a stone, a heart takes the blow.

Within gilded halls, high walls of might,
Within gilded halls, where shadows ignite,
Within gilded halls, where fortunes gleam,
And chandeliers dance, a separate dream.

They feast on sweets, a rich, fragrant spread,
They feast on sweets, the words unsaid,
They feast on sweets, a lavish design,
And bottled waters, a separate sign.

While we, the poor, with chutney and bread,
While we, the poor, with dust on our head,
While we, the poor, our hunger to mend,
Quench thirst with water, from the well's end.

They learn in halls, where knowledge is kept,
They learn in halls, where secrets are swept,
They learn in halls, a future so grand,
And private lessons, held close in their hand.

A whisper, a stone, a heart takes the blow,
A whisper, a stone, a heart takes the blow.
