When eyes are opened
Along with scenes, pictures are presented
Art was not perceived-
When reading is completed
Along with grammar, sentences are read
Subject was not understood-
When journey was carried out
Along with roads, routes came across
Destination was not reached-
When listening is done
Along with erudition, opinions are collected
Sense was not absorbed-
When prayer prolonged
Along with procedures, expectations are prevailed
Piety was not experienced-
“Why? ” hearts have been questioned
The hearts were turned dumb long ago!
“Why? ” minds were questioned
The minds were turned deaf long ago!
What went wrong?
How wrongness became strong?
Things are not in place
Our attitudes induce distress!
Our rivers are sleeping…
Our statues are weeping…
We got to rectify our lives
We have to restore righteousness
Right now, rightness has to be achieved
The mankind has to be protected
