SYMPHONY

 

SYMPHONY

 

 

Speechless, awestruck felt, tribal lives,

Enigma withstood times survives,

Look at civilization aghast perish,

Tribal lives humans alive cherish, (1)

 

Denounced illusive mind, bookish,

Deceived education world, foolish,

How many wars, incursions, invades,

Boasting powerful, to dust tirades, (2)

 

Eloquent monstrous castle palace,

Hunted ghost place book disgrace,

Skill, education, human learning, growth,

Cities, malls, highways, mad shows, (3)

 

There live mafia, corrupted, horrific,

That shines through glass mercuric,

Fluid urban life educated perceive,

Underneath cruel, angry, aggressive, (4)

 

Happens here riots, arson, violence,

Families fight over property intense,

As many people, that many problems,

Forget these humans amity solemn, (5)

 

Seen everything yet visiting nature,

Tribal life astonished tranquil lure,

No fear, arson, fight, killing visible,

Scant dress ordinary yet impossible, (6)

 

A mud cottage fearless of animals,

Independent on vegetation tribal,

Forest their asset survival cause,

River mountain they access pause, (7)

 

Hamlets spread throughout safely,

And celebrate festivals dance lovely,

Lack of human knowledge weapon,

Millennia, they exist, unchanged, learn, (viii)

 

No need for costumes ornament cry,

No requirement for asset gadget try,

No car bungalow dream strike hard,

They live happily free, love reward, (9)

 

Pray for tree river, the sun or moon,

Marriage child is born feasting loom,

Withers rain storms, dry season exist,

Cry a few sick depart life less resist, (10)

 

Exalt the night of dance, rhythmic,

Forget these humans, tribal exotic,

Lesson to the era, civilized harmony,

Tribal exists no fight living symphony. (11)
