Neither silver nor gold we have none
But i believe we can change the world of err
Our father's days had gone
It's our time to change the evil air
...
It flies, flies and flies
It goes up, up and up
It cries, cries and cries
And never beg for food cup
...
The land and it's wishes
They dwelled in riches
They continued to dwell
And was going well
...
Roses are beautiful
But you are more than rose
You are wonderful
Either you choose to sleep or pose
...
The last time I checked, she has gone
Her words then, weren't real
Her smiles then, were all fake
But I valued them because they built worlds
...
We are all human
aren't we?
we are all human
until riches segregated us
...
I am a student and not a bandit
Mixing Grammar with Marxism in order to be a liberator
Mixing lectures in order to be fit
Paid parents, tell me the tales of the children persecutor
...
Years ago, brother made a first class
today, I saw him rolling multiple weeds
because his birth place is a smouldering hell
where people pray not to see another day
...
MOTHER
my life is full of happiness without an iota of joy
my world is full of sorrow without sadness
My life is like a flood running around, strolling with erosion
...
Up and down like a tide
When will the contest end?
Embark on no destination ride
But, sometimes plain truth bend
...
Many hours haves been wasted
Behind your window
Yet, the love is not tasted
See me now, crying like a widow
...
Glittering like gold
Cowards never bold
Tow things must be done
In which you have none
...
Finally, the hour came
Happy, going up and dow
The moment to forget the horrible name
Friends called me dark and brown
...
In this world I came
I came as an ordinary being
With hope of many fame
Should I come back to you with sin?
...
From birth, they've planned a detour
By forcing the child to walk
When the hour to walk it yet to arrive
By taking a detour, the child is now cripple
...
The world is like a season
One goes and another comes
Summer and winter season
If one is tormented with heat
...
Will it last forever?
No! It'slike a sunshine
that comes in the morning and go back at dusk
Some call it necessary evil

Our Hope
Neither silver nor gold we have none
But i believe we can change the world of err
Our father's days had gone
It's our time to change the evil air
It will be better for our absence in the world
Than to leave it with no changes
Arise! the gods
Arise! the immortal ages
Our time is what we have
We lack mundane power
But let's use what we have
The immortal power
Changes by no matchet
Wealth will fades away
Comestible will be obsolete
Weight will have nothing to weigh
There are many in the world to see
And many also to be
But with ink, book and pen
We are out of the tyrant den
'It is good to be a coward in hell than to be a coward in life'
'If people's thought are visible, there is going to be a least death in life'
' The best is in us, the only problem is that we don't normally cherish is ours '
' Some words must be left unspoken'
Great job
