The Golden Bird

The Golden Bird, they named you

and idolized you with love and devotion

by considering you equivalent to God

Their heart was full with emotion.

 

You were soaring high in the sky

with all the treasures you possessed

which made us stand up with pride

and we realized how much we were blessed.

 

Then came the era, you couldn't fly anymore

your wings were chopped off with cruelty 

by the narcissist and self indulgent bodies

who call themselves  a part of  our society.

 

Crime,crises,discrimination and corruption 

 has killed your pious soul brutally

The golden bird, is dead  long ago

as it had been murdered by us ruthlessly.

 

Come back again to us, it is not too late

like a Phoenix arising from the ashes  

We the youth promise to protect you

from all the agonizing scratches.
