Tears rolling down the cheeks
the poor, famished and miserable
While pearls adorn the wealthy wrists
the rich relishing a feast on their table
Cry for help
No one seems to hear
The fountain of justice
is a mirage, far from near
Nations engaged in conflicts,
not a sign of truce
Violation of human rights
has left a permanent bruise
Mankind deprived of its basic needs
Is it a good sign?
Do we have the time
for the fight of "yours" and "mine"?
Can I wish for a day
when the sun will shine bright,
Peace be everywhere
and equality be each human's right?
