Confound Not Truth With Falsehood Poem by Aftab Alam

Confound Not Truth With Falsehood

Rating: 5.0


What life is, without strife for peace!
Will we remove the thoughtless fleece?
Ah! Freedom we need, aren’t we free?
Freely, we dream- heaven’s holy decree

All are free and hence fear is imposed
Through peace, peace can be proposed
Being a dove, without peace and patience!
O! Freedom seeker mischief,
Thou art, non-sense

Man kills a man without any reason
Man kills a man in confusion
Man kills himself in frustration
Man kills himself with an expectation

I never expected anything in life
I am not demoralized
Waiting here to hunt the death
With the arms of humanity
And the deeds that I have done
Unto the human kind.


The truth is that, never mind-
O those create terror on earth;
A mercenary or for mirth.

“Confound not truth with falsehood,
Nor knowingly conceal the truth”
Life is where there peace you find
Look around, forget not to look behind
