This land of ours had a hoary culture
Fell into the hands of a hungry vulture
Lost its glory to be retrieved in future
Regained freedom without much of a rupture!
Natives were looked down with frown
Treating them as not more than clown
An English was born with name of BROWN*
Adorned the native language with lovely crown!
Telugu tongue is great and sweet
Lyrics and literature vast and deep
To unearth the meaning tough and steep
BROWN made us learn with peace and ease!
Learnt the language with love and passion
Spread its fragrance with vision and mission
Made us look with sense of shame and admiration
Inspired us through his boundless dedication!
Effective tool of learning is dictionary
Brought out the same with the zeal of a missionary
Sure was a treasure to the posterity
One can quote it with sense of authority!
Lived his life as a TELUGU SAGE
In all his service in the centre stage
Service offered inscribed in golden page
Ever green in our hears is his noble image!
(*C. P. Brown was an English Civil servant in the nineteenth century and rendered yeomen service to the cause of Telugu language and literature.)
