Peace Be Upon You, The War Mongers! ! Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Peace Be Upon You, The War Mongers! !

Rating: 5.0


Stop provoking and insinuating,
on the lands; river Indus dividing,
billions of poor hearts, here, pounding,
silent prayers are alerting and warning,

Our mother land uniting and nurturing,
all the ancestral inhabitants as siblings,
learned the lessons of sharing and caring,
hand shake will stop the blasting and hurting,

Don't flame the fire of faith and division,
to get the wealthy warmth out of it,
millions of faithful as the naturalized,
anything happens in this region, will affect,

India is neither the playground nor battlefield,
where you can disperse all your toys as merchandize,
stop bullying the minds of the intellectuals,
Millions of years have passed with many massacres,

still we survive on our own land with lot, s,
of archaeological proof to unlock the doctored,
history of the past: neither we are greedy,
nor selfish for you to use the old tactics..

Our history bears a proof that India has never had an expansionist design. It wants peace and believes in 'Live and let live'. But, yes, nobody can take away its right of self defence. Thanks.
