Unshackle Thyself

 

Man was born free and

Everywhere he is in chains,

That status, surprisingly,

Every man, still, maintains.

 

He, still maintains-how?

Just have this odd vision

He comes out of little cage

Into a still bigger prison.

 

Break open that door

To let the sunshine in

That’s the way to defeat

Darkness and the light win

 

Bound by traditions and

Ethics are the women folks,

While men got away gleefully,

Strutting as jazzy peacocks.

 

God’s best creation is

The Eve on this earth,

Be it daughter or mother,

She has proved her worth

 

She should unfasten

The rope that has tied her

Must regain her freedom

That has been denied her

 

God created one universe-

An undivided cosmos,

Humans’ve drawn boundaries,

Made relations comatose

 

It’s time for human beings to

Break the mental bondage,

Also its optimum time to

Come out of bigger cage
