A TEAR IN THE PASSAGEWAY OF HISTORY since the day the hands of Cain soaked in Abel's blood since the day the bitter poison of enmity gushed in Adam's children's veins humanity was lost, even if human was alive since the day Joseph pushed brothers in the hole since the day they built the Great Wall with blood and lashes humanity was lost and so the world grew crowded It turned and turned Centuries passed since Adam's death O Alas! Humanity did not return Our century, Is the day of humanity's downfall The heart of world is empty of goods and empathy Talk is of freedom, purity and compassion Talk of Moses and Jesus and Muhammad is not appropriate The century of Moses is passed This is the day of humanity's failure if I am bursting into tears is because of a withering flower a sick kid's look a caged dove a man in chain, a criminal on gallows and in these days I pour poison in my cup How could I believe in his death? Talk is not of withering a leave or two, Alas! they're destroying the jungles They hide their dirty hands from the eyes of mankind No creature would allow such behavior on another What these vampires do to mankind Let us suppose talk is not of cutting off a leave or two Let us suppose the death of the dove in cage is not a death Let us suppose there is not a leaf left in the world Let us suppose the jungles were wasteland from the beginning In such a silent and peaceful desert Within these tolerant people Talk is of the loss of compassion, of love The matter is loss of humanity ------------- "I won't laugh if a philosophy halves the moon"
