BETWEEN THE LINES

between the lines, some here some there
similar suspicion on either sides share

standing in guard, standing in attention
always ready for defence and retention
guns in the hand aiming at one another
treating as an enemy who was once a brother
often there is tension and peace is rare

earlier this was just one united earth
and we used to be same during our birth
now differences has crept and divided us
separate faith and religion has guided us
but He's one and same who answers our prayer

we've gone corrupt, we now rob and bribe
our infamous deeds are easy to describe
now hate and envy in our veins just flow
in our heart jealousy and enmity does grow
we've quite forgotten affection and care

its hypocricy when we talk of non violence
does atomic and nuclear arms makes any sense
its all of us who have contributed to terror
we've to accept this as our collective error
rise against this evil make each one aware

let us now come together for good of our own
and fight against all the evils that's grown
let us be true and sincere without any fear
we can make heaven out of the hell over here
only if we've time to think, act and spare
