Language is just a mode of communication, any scholar of any particular language can be proved illiterate for a language unknown.
A person should be smart enough to make his way around the world or to handle a particular situation. Language has nothing to do with one's intellect or knowledge.
Then why…
Krodh kiya to kya paya,
Kya manushya ki samajh mein yeh aaya?
Doosron ko kiya dukhi,
To khud bhi kaun sa reh paya sukhi?
Na samjha abhi tak veh,
Kasht diya usne khud ko hi.
Kisi ko daanta, kisi ko maara,
Kisi ko dhakka diya.
Is ek kartoot ne kitnon ko rula diya.
Shaant raho bhaiyya na karo itna…
One resolution I have made, and try
always to keep, is this: To rise above
the little things.
