Complexities of life can be understood but can be shown
From birth till death man remains just in the danger zone
One should not have a living heart but just heart of stone
By the end of the day destitute soul has nothing to own

Humans are in unknown, unseen chains always to suffer
On this world stage we come and go like nominated actors
Keeping in eyes life full of flowers we smilingly face altars
What we are completely borrowed souls and bodies in cover

What is life a dream in dream with all the fits of insanity
What we have been ordered we are but bound to agree
World is an ocean full of whirlwinds and to face without plea
What is fate written somewhere and what is fortune let us see

How to break these chains to come out of cruel clutches of life
We have to travel per force with bare feet on sharp blunt knife
At times we are on swing of luxuries and at times just in strife
From these unseen chains man wants to be free just like a rife
