DaRpaN - eK atMakaTha..!!

I live in fear, I live in shame,

I live a life without a name..

Dodging fortune’s killing blows,

Running hard from Hate’s flow..

But somewhere deep within my mind,

There’s belief, faith in mankind!

Narrow walls, violent rage,

Stalk my steps at every stage..

They’re cruel, they’re giants,

They find new ways to strangle my kind.. 

Yet somewhere deep within my mind,

I have faith in Mankind!

Sun still shines upon our race,

Rains come pouring to bring grace..

Winter’s chill does not stay,

Summer’s breeze comes to play..

So somewhere deep within my mind,

I keep faith in Mankind..!
