Oh ,losing they’re their childhood
for them this materialistic world just like a wood
O men !
Look their pathetic condition
Hungry, thirsty they’re
Forgot how to laugh full of energy and smile
Oh , how cruel , powerful this time
Exploited to and fro
Who’s responsible for such conditions tell me bro ?
O leaders !
Don’t you see their hungry eyes ?
Why they’re forced to work in those places ?
Many more examples of such cases
Oh ,snatched their childhood
Why , they’re forced for child labour ?
They have their sweet dreams
in this materialistic world
Gorgeous faces covered with dust
To see their condition humble heart is to burst
They need help for their merciful condition
Where’s the strongest government and its passion ?
Hungry stomach on the edge of starvation
Without books ,bags and respect
Searching here searching their for something to collect
Selling ice -cream , losing dreams
O men !
See your surroundings ; they need help from their kings
Be a light for their eyes
You’re educated , you’re wise
They have their rights to see their sun rise
O poets , social reformers be their voice
Go on the path of humanity hand in hand
It’s the right choice , it’s the right choice
