Sisters Of My Mother Poem by gnrao rao

Which is the mother of languages?
Sanskrit, Latin, Greek, Tamil? ?
NO matter which is its mother,
With out her nothing can be
expressed.
Even if you want to say
I like you, I love you,
You need a language
To communicate.

By signs you can do,
But with sweet and lovely
words it can carry
more weight and
the purpose for which
it is intended
is fulfilled.

Each language has its
own beauty,
every melody,
Music set in nice words
to listen is a feast for
the ears.

But we have to be careful
when using the words,
A word in one language
may mean something else.

Know it meaning before you use.
I once useda word in Arabic
that word was Suwaaj and Jawaaz>
Not knowing the pronunciation
properly
I asked the customer
Has he a wife
instead askingpassport
for an Identity.

I am glad they didn't
get angry,
they corrected me
and told me the meaning
and pronunciation
and I thanked them.

Every language is a sister
to your mother tongue.
It is nice to know
many languages,
and you can feel at home.

I like all languages
and all people in the world.

I thank God for His creation.
for the variety.
