Do Not Subject The Yazidis To Inhuman And Sectarian Torture, Misery And Destitute, O Fanatics! Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Do not subject,
Subject them,
The Yazidis,
The Yazidi people in Iraq,
The ancient ethno-religious Kurdish speaking group,
Surviving the onslaughts
Of the intolerant faiths and people,
Surviving so far,
Living under dire circumstances,
Driven to Sinjar mountain
As refugees
Shelterless, homeless,
Hapless and helpless
Under difficult weather conditions.

Is to profess a different faith is to be satanic,
How intolerant have they become,
Are they only chaste and holy,
Mark it
Thew victory by sword
Shall perish by sword,
The spill of innocent blood
Will not let them live peacefully,
Anything with origin in blood
Will come to an end in blood,
The victory of the bloody sword
Will not live long?

Why not to let them have their faith,
Predating our own,
An ancient faith
Believing in Yasdan
And the Peacock Angel,
Praying sun-faced
And five times,
Doing no harm to others,
Have they,
They become so much intolerant and inhuman
That they cannot let others hold to
To their beliefs and faiths?

Say you, aren't they themselves satanic
Instead of calling others
Satanic and devilish,
Uncouth and unchaste?
Say you, say you,
Are they not sinning against God and humanity,
Are they not sinful,
Have they not sinned against man and God
By slaughtering the innocent Yazidis?
Have they become religiously blind
That they cannot distinguish between light and darkness,
Are they the contractors of God?
It is nothing but religious madness
Which needs to be cured of.
