Poem: Life at IIT

Ever wondered why IIT is so great?

Ever wondered how great engineers it’ll make

It is not a matter of just fate

But undistorted facts you’ll have to take


Let’s see what we have actually got here

People sleeping with a wheel and a gear?

This is far from the truth, come a little near

Life is not so simple after all, my dear!


Do we really read the whole day?

No, never we’ll all say

We keep those idealists at bay

Strange is this institute’s way!


Is it the best in the world we have got?

How to sing and dance we forgot?

Nobel prizes we have sought?

In a world of books are we caught?


No it’s nothing of all these

All we have is great expertise!

Spare us from nerds and geeks please!

Studies are not just a matter of degrees!


We’ll do what we love, and have fun!

Recreation we’ll never shun

Studies to fun as a gram to a ton!

And you can just about take that, not as a pun!


It’s a balanced life that we adopt

“Learning is fun” phrase is never dropped

Trying out new things we have never stopped

And this is the reason we have always topped!
