THE WORLD OF VAIN

 

SHAIK MAZHAR HUSSAIN

 

            Stop! What a disgust it is!

            my heart is yelling to see not the cheat!

            The world of Love is feigning,

            ask not, what has come to the faith of loving!

 

            Stop! What a catastrophe it is!

            it seems the God of wealth on men doth cease!

            The world of human is suffering,

            see how starveth the world of human being!

 

            Stop! What a pain it is!

            to see the helpless women without ease!

            Oh, see spinsters in vile adversity,

            making mess of their immaculate chastity!

 

            Stop! What a regret it is!

            my brawn are splitting seeing the greed!

            See the world of administration,

            lost honesty and efficiency with a view of emulation!

 

            Stop! Stop! Stop! O God!

            tired I to the grave from all this fraud!

            Put the world of riddle to serene,

            or else relieve my soul from this eternal World of Vain!
