A Strange Fake Song

They brand themselves as Secular,
And fake to follow the principle honestly:
I looked again, and found they were
Spreading hatred and violence truly.
'Ultimately I realized, ' I said,
'It was power game really! '

They pretend to practice Social Justice
And cry upon the chimney-higher:
I looked again, and found they were
Spreading caste and separatism sire.
“I felt they were wolfs, ” eating everybody,
“it was a game of fire! ”

They work as Philanthropists;
They appear as soft faces:
I looked again, and found they were
Looting the people with fast paces.
'The one thing I regret, ' I said,
'Is that no body can tar those ugly faces! ”

They march as the leader of Society Civil
Descending from vanity bags:
I looked again, and found they were
Most uncivil faces with acts rags.
'If they continued to shine, ' I cried,
'There won't be much for us! '

They shout as Human Right fighters
That work to clean the dark -mill:
I looked again, and found they were
Very dangerous and venomous-pill.
'If prescribed to swallow this, ' I said,
'Nation must be very ill! '

They are sworn as leader of the nation
Those stood beside everybody’s bed:
I looked again, and found they were
Fooling a nation and a fake head.
'Sad thing, ' I said, 'sad silly thing!
”Nation was bleeding red! '
