Savitribai Phule's Poem: And you yearn not for the same

 And you yearn not for the same,

You posses intellect but work not on the same,
How then can you be called a human being?
Birds, animals, monkeys, human beings too,
All go through life and death
But if you gain no knowledge about this,
How then can you be called a human being?
