I have seen
Much life of this world
Afraid …
I question, am I blind?
Of course …
You too stand a mute spectator
Ignorant of the happenings around.
The invaluable human lives
The beautiful natural resources
The scintillating and rotund moon
The smooth flowing silent rivers
How peaceful they look!
How pretty they resemble!
The drizzle of the rainy season
The song of the Koel during spring
The evening wind blow during summer
The shining dew at the dawn of winter,
I have been a witness to these delights
Sparing year after year with hesitation.
‘cause on the other side of this delight
I find violent and unimaginable plight
An undernourished child, a starving mother
A devoid life, midst poverty and fears
Slowly drift through an era of illusions, yes
Seasons change, but not the human values
Who’s going to infuse the lacking instinct.
