I judge you not by what you wear,
Whether your garment is of rag or riches,
Or your skin is of a color white or black,
Whether you wear some gold or trinkets,
Or decorate yourself with fur and pearls..

I judge you not by your status,
Whether you are king or queen,
Or you live in some attractive castles
Whether you have fat wallets with arrogant circle of friends...
Or cold, heartless, lifeless looking stare as if you own the world..

Though we live in ruins, we have hearts of gold..
Your fancy swimming pool is surely expensive
Envy we do not we have the widest sea to swim..
Your tennis mate gave us that ***** looking glare..
Ohhh do we care?

For we have the whole lush green field for our kids to play...
We do not have a luxurious four wheels drive like yours..
No comfort of private treatment in hotel like hospitals..
But My circle of friends shall not see me die so easily..
or leave me to suffer in pain and sorrow...

I judge you not by your urban lifestyles
Contented I am in dilapidated flat I own for I dont sleep worry...
Whether your rich looking friends will share your troubles
Or one day you’d end up lonely and missing your family..
That should be your biggest fears and worries....
I dont judge you still...and dont you judge me..
Materials is comfort to your eyes...
Not to the eye of soul....
