It is this irony that the poem laments. The irony that Karna was the Pandavas eldest brother, born to their mother following her invocation to Surya, the Sun God, while she was still an unmarried maiden. Afraid of the shame and embarrassment that would befall her, Kunti set her first-born afloat in a basket, into the river Yamuna. The child fell into the hands of Adhirath (a charioteer) and his wife Radha, a childless couple, who then raised him. And thus, Karna is known to be of a low-birth.
Dinkar verse evoked nationalism. His poems gave voice to India as it fought for Independence, it showed the path to its leaders as they set about building a new nation and continues to tell us how far we have to go to fulfill the tenets of a democracy.
