Brighten The Future

I look back to the natural scene So calm, peaceful and hardly seen Refuge for all birds and for human beings too Why are we denying the fact that it is true? Despite all cruelty on nature We are making future unsure We think of nothing about future generation Forget about the human and nature’s relation We have tradition of praying rain god In the wake of drought and scarcity for food We gather and chant the hymns in his praise Such bond existed and still exists when we are chased Look back at frequent natural calamities Heavy toll of man and material in all the cities In Europe and elsewhere its presence is felt We do nothing sincerely to prevent Rivers are in spate Landslides and earthquakes are routine to state Bushfire is apparent and destruction of forests is everywhere Can we call it necessary for mankind and fare? Let the whole of mankind not loose on this count! As colossal losses are reported and talked about It is still not late to come to the terms Else whole of universe may be questioned in turn There were no shivering cold nights Neither was thick snow nor the droughts Let us wake up to the call of nature Strengthen the bond and brighten the future
