ANGLOS OF INDIA: WILL THE RACE SURVIVE?
by Warren Brown
The dark shores of India
Beckoned the young and the brave.
In sixteen hundred British merchants to India came.
Soldiers followed for adventure and Indian fame.
The traders now set up in India four colonies
To implement the trade Charter policies.
It was in this age that our race was born
The first young Anglos of the new dawn.
When young Britons took
native Indian girls for their brides
All the girls' parents would cast them aside.
The outcast lady's issue would now forever be
An Anglo-Indian in History.
With the genes of his British father in his blood
The young Anglo was now misunderstood.
Why did the Anglo never feel at home?
Even in India the land of peace and piety,
He was never fully accepted in Indian society.
Anglo-Indian Legends Hall of Fame
Include Sir Cliff Richard and Englebert Humperdinck,
Great celebrities who have made a name.
The next generation of Anglo-Indians step in with a mission,
To fulfil, the glorious Anglo-Indian Vision.
Anglo-Indians were born of mixed parentage
on the wild, untamed shores of an Indian stage,
Whose native language even at home is English.
Will the race survive? Yes, we can only wish!
