Ode to State Bank of Hyderabadtc "Ode to State Bank of Hyderabad"
K. Vivekanandam
Hail State Bank of Hyderabad standing stately at Gun Foundry
Whenever I see you I fall in a reverie
Imposing structures of architecture profuse
At the entrance beauty does marble expose
High walls of Italian marble green
Resplendent are splendour in the twilight seen
Alluring marble in black or other colour
Reveals wonderous fruits of human endeavour
One fails to notice its grandeur on a day cosy
It stands unveiled after customers aren’t busy
When silence prevails its arches late in the night give delight
The shining beauty of its arches gives delight
Amazing in the night when silence descends every where
As though it’s a gun-studded fuel, very rare
At day it is just a busy place bustling with people
Dressed in clothes of hues red, green and purple
Does any of them stop a while to ponder
On the architectural beauty of hers and wonder?
Would anyone reflect, on the end of our actions?
Where are we going, what is the end of all the transactions?
