If I punch and you retaliate,
Then you and I enter battlefield
Soon, it will be a failed state
With nothing but swords to wield,
We both lose many a mate
For this we cannot shield
But if I smile and you retaliate,
Then you and I bless, exit battlefield
Soon, we will have a happy state
With nothing but love to wield,
We both gain many a mate
For this we can shield
See, it at times is good to retaliate
We are sowing fraternity in any battlefield
Now, we celebrate diversity in any state
With everything good that we can wield,
We are not late to be each other’s mate
For this is our only shield
