Once "blind" meant "having no eyes",
Now time demands a redefinition
For now those with eyes have become sightless
They see without seeing, the tears that go untouched
Once "Deaf" meant "having no ears"
Now time demands a redefinition
For today those with ears cant hear
The agonized pleas, the sorrowed cries
Once "Dumb" was "one who could not speak"
Now time demands a redefinition
For those with tongues keep shut their mouths
When the innocents plead for justice
Once "Mad" meant to "Lack senses"
Now time demands a redefinition
For those honouring their brains have turned lunatic
They destroy without caring, they cause pain without guilt
Yes! Time has changed it all
The purity of conscience has defiled
The intensity of emotions has burnt out
In the race for world,title and money
Man has become a stranger to himself
Yes! In his veil of illusion of normalcy
Man deludes in false assurances
his "Supremacy" has been erased by brutality
he now lives as the worst animal
Caught in a disease, unknown
he gradually proceeds towards destruction
But! In this long changed world
The sun still rises and illuminates the dark
Yet! a bud blooms to flower
Unaware of the gloom,the birds still sing
The cool breeze blows to refreshen!
.....And yet! In the souls of many
......Hope still lives...
