True super heroes and heroines are those who heal the suffering and serve the poor— contents Mujeeb Jaihoon
The world has had
Enough of oppression
Unbearable are any more
Hands of transgression
We swiped too many screens
Of our ego’s imagination
Failed: The promise of liberation
Unripe: the fruits of revolution
Defiled were the hands who raised
Slogans for nations’ destruction
Children are crying
Sick are yearning
For soulful hands—
Compassionate and caring
So that each human soul
Of every creed
For a safe and studious life
Do have an inherent need
True pearls are not shelved
On the awfully opulent stores
Rather, they are the Big Hearts
Wash up who on the Poor’s shores
For, gold-adorned hands shall
Never fashion the human-nation
