Hypocrisy Or Sincerity Poem by Muhammad Shanazar

What sort of hearts your chests contain,
What sort of brains your heads breed,
That you operate upon eyes of the serpents blind,
And you kiss lips of the leprous lions,
You wash their pads, claws and jaws.

You allow dogs to share meals at the same table,
And sleep in the same bed.
You dive into oceans to vaccinate the diseased sharks.
You are anxious to save from extinction
The rare species of turtles and toads.
To prove the maxim, “love begets love”,
You place scorpions on lids of the eyes.
But you produce missile, bombs and bullets,
Devices of the extensive destruction,
And poke humanity into the fire of wars,
Pools of blood fascinate your eyes,
The world is being coloured red,
You raise conflicts wherever you wish,
For royalties, trades of weapons and natural oil.

Ah! Under the false pretensions,
Men, women and children:
Fathers, mothers, sons and daughters,
Are made fuel of the devilish games,
Is it hypocrisy or sincerity to the fair earth?
Spare a few moments to ponder over,
And bring me about the deeds you carry out.
