A poem of equality and peace

Whoever you are – A white man, black or red,
Are you a good companion or a threat?
To put yourself first how can you afford,
You’re a human being from the Lord!

Whoever you are – A Muslim, Christian, Sikh,
Do you want – on others – to play a trick,
With those people will you not concord?
You’re a human being from the Lord!

With those people will you not concord?
You’re a human being from the Lord!
Pass these words to others in a chord:
We’re one creation from the Lord!

You are my brother, you are my sister, darling,
I will not look at your varied colors, –
But in your heart you have good intentions
So why kill each other and why fight?

So why kill each other and why fight?
We are equal and we all have the same right!
Pass these words to others in a chord:
We’re united for peace in this world!

May God take in due course our lives,
Just tell me does friendship have a price?
We were given time – very short,
Remember, we’ll return back to the Lord!

We were given time – very short,
Remember, we’ll return back to the Lord!
Pass these words to others in a chord:
We’re united for peace in this world!
