Answers From The True Priests Poem by Abdulrazak Aralimatti

Answers From The True Priests



I once asked a Christian priest
One in his old age with appropriate wisdom
A question on Christians and Muslims
He answered, 'Let's do our duty,
You yours and me mine'

I once asked a Hindu priest
One with appropriate knowledge and action
A question on what life is all about
His reply, 'Life a drama and we the characters,
Let's play our roles to the level best'

I once asked a Muslim priest
One with appropriate faith and conduct
A question on belief and faith
His response, 'Your actions superficial'
'If no fear of God in heart'

On above answers, I ponder and resolve
To perform my duty and fulfill my role
With true fear of God in heart.
