One Weak Slogan Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

One Weak Slogan

Rating: 5.0


Always escape under one weak slogan
And helplessly call vulnerable to plan
Nothing goes in head or unnoticed
As we are insincere and do not act as promised

What is needed at present to be called human?
When we act worst than the animals?
Kill the innocent persons at day light
And still term it as crusade or fight?

Stop fooling now and keep answers ready for the future generation
They may like to know exactly where we erred in our relations.
Why we all were all committed to preserve humanity?
But failed to observe commands issued by the almighty

Our own children may want to know about the path chosen
Why there was slum in personal relation or simply frozen?
What made us to rise in arms and kill innocents for no reasons?
Who are all gruesomely murdering and claiming as true sons?

I may want to know the simple factor for consumption
What can be least agreeable reason for dialogue resumption?
Who can guarantee the liberty and freedom of right after so called liberation?
Will it be secular, authoritarian, democratic or multi ethnic nation?

Dictators have fled away or are being killed
Corrupt politicians are enjoying but constantly grilled
Poor people are watching with dazed eyes
National wealth is swindled off and flies

Where and how can we justify as human being?
Have we not tolerated emperors or great kings?
Were they able to serve empires at best of their ability?
Answer is emphatic “no” much to the discomfort of our capability

Let us do nothing at present but observe truce
Let people move freely without any grudge
Dignity and integrity are two the major concerned factors
If breached then can invite losses as compared to that atomic reactors

No one is going to be permanent here
Nations may perish and something new may emerge here and there
We have to utilize the space granted by merciful lord
Look ahead, guide in whatever capacity you can, and go forward

This is an amazing poem that I agree with wholeheartedly. I can understand this poem because the same is happening in my country, just like the rest of the world. The government is trying to control us and has swindled away our country's wealth - it's quite pathetic really. But like you said, as long as we keep our dignity and passively resist we can look ahead to a better future.
