Come winds, from afar and and near, Charge, waters of the world, to sweep Tyrants out who use humble fellows with no care In corporate classes, for profit to reap!
Oh, how false and mad-lived is this! Trading their human nature for only dollar in truth, And despite what the mind urges to enlist--- Love, and Care, fraternal hope for youth!
To where is wisdom gone, does any one know? Will Corporation give care and love? It's false for other than Allah to bow: Will dollar keep them out of the grave and above?
