An Elephant And The Ant

Leaving large oceans for the large whales O you the proud elephant! Largest on the land, You look amazing sleeping in a standing position Pity on you, when you fall you never stand! You are famous for your long memories Learn to forget and forgive the weak Realize the power of the poor petty ants What is concealed beyond the time's streak? Neither I know nor you nor anyone else Think if an ant manages to enter your trunk How helpless you will be, beware of the time, You will only beat the earth like a drunk Mother earth doesn't like one moving proudly You are mighty! But time is a cruel cycle, It changes mightiness in weakness and vice versa I see a crazy rider is now back on a tricycle! Ants are not so weak as you think They live in a highly sophisticated society Their brotherhood, equity and hard working May become for you a source of anxiety A single ant can force you to fall on the ground Flush will be carried to the hidden holes of the ants And ivories in a workshop of the beautiful crafts Reminding, how blessed you were with the grants!
