Wake Up From Your Deadly Sleep Poem by Aftab Alam

Wake Up From Your Deadly Sleep

Rating: 5.0


Wake- up, wake-up,
From your deadly sleep,
Don't cry, never weep,
Come on the roads,
Come on the streets,
Come from all sides,
Raise your voice—
Come on, raise your voice,
Raise your voice—
Cruelty against human kind,
Cruelty against humanity,
Cruelty against Earth,
Come on shout against treachery,
Come on shout against political lies,
Come on, shout against being fooled,
Steal time to polish your time,
We are one—Whole world is ours,
Open your eyes,
Remove the bandage,
Raise your voice to bring peace on earth,
Come on raise against non transparency,
Raise your voice to resurrect democracy,
Wake up to live,
Wake up for the generation yet to come,
Save-save, wake up, wake up,
Make earth worth living and not leaving

I echo your expressions against cruelty and having no honor for humanity, the earth or for honesty. You bring attention to our responsibility as humans to cry out for these things, to foster peace on earth. This is a very beautiful poem Aftab! Thank you for sharing it!
