Bon Voyage

BON VOYAGE




Where had we begun
Where have we come
To forget the failures
But learn from some

Left behind monkeys and apes
But have we overcome,
or still moving in different shapes
Tails still lagging on some.

Where had we begun
where have we come

The air, the water, the sand
Rains used to go and come
Must have seen seas of land
Had we retained some

Where had we begun
where have we come

Lost all smiles behind miles
Tears difficult to overcome
Pogroms packed in files
Rs.5000,10000.....50000 for some

Where had we begun
where have we come

Dreadening sounds of explosives
To tear us apart they come
Missiles,smoke and cheers of tears
No more tears in eyes of some

Where had we begun
where have we come

But where to go,where to come
Eyes blank, Tongues blank
For tears, snatching eyes of some
Have we gone so low in rank

Better had we not begun
Must not have come
No eyes.....No tears.....None
No flesh to eat flesh of some

Where had we begun
where have we come
