1)? The Common Life!
[As the sun dawns,
On the hour’s break,
So do we must,
To face the day’s dust.]
[For we’re to grind,
Like the ass with no mind,
We are to face strife,
In the name of life.]
[To pay back loan,
Or just to stop the social moan,
We have to race,
Oh!There’s no choice.]
[This is what they call life,
To have a wife,
Maybe a child,
Otherwise, you’re just too wild.]
[But who decides?
What life really is,
Few know that,
The rest just slog their butt.]
[True life is just to be,
There is no you or even me,
Truth has no law,
If that you think, it’s just a flaw.]
2) ? The Hard Road!
[An empty plate,
Sadly, that’s the state,
Is it too much to ask?
For a crumb of bread?
Don’t want more, oh! not a spread.]
[An empty soul,
With a mother’s role,
Is it too much to wonder?
Or even be angry?
Why my child, oh! beloved goes hungry?]
[An empty house,
Just for his weekend’s spouse,
Is it too much to look at?
And maybe fret?
That I got the street and rain to get wet?]
[An empty life,
After years of toil,
Should I not cry?
Just a little bit?
To see others meet and greet?]
[An empty womb,
No matter what,
Do I not ache?
For a mother’s sake?
When I see her give up what I didn’t get?]
Om Shanti….?
