What is that….?
What is that we need to have
To live a life instead of dragging
Our existence in vain?
What is that which makes
Our work, a worship
Instead of a strain?
What is that which makes
A stone, a deity
Instead of mundane?
What is that which makes us
Respect a woman equal to mother or sister
And make us from lust refrain?
What is that which makes us feel
This world to be worth living
Without making any complaint?
What is that which teaches us
The value of co-existence
Stopping us from being insane?
What is that which makes us
Help the poor and needy
And feel their pain?
And
What is that which fills us with positivity
Erasing all kinds of negativity
From our brain?
