Leprosy Eradication. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

It was leprosy that feared by humans
The social ostracism that suffered
The ill treatment meted out
The sorrowful human hearts of patients
Facilities for treatment were meager
World feared the disease quite often
Happy to know time has changed all
Not a dreaded disease at all
Forget the yesterday, think the tomorrow
Enjoy the present day where it is real
The real hope of remedies of treatment
The dedication of modern medical practice
The researches and modern medicine
Great knowledge of disease and remedies
Let them act for actions in time
And make the world of rehabilitation
And get them cured with proper access
Humans the great hope of the world
Obstacles through diseases they passed
The plague, leprosy, Tuberculosis likewise
We have conquered the diseases many
Still we have to travel in length
The great hopes on science we carry
Let us unite and act with dedication.
