Beware the Azgar Is Moving
Beware the Azgar is Moving
Be aware
The Azgar is moving
It does not believe in
Peace and commitments
Its sole belief is to swallow
Whatever lies within or even
Beyond its boundaries and limits. 01
It has plans to move
Even on snowy high mountains peaks
The Azgar never believes in Buddha's peace
It believes in committing and then even in betraying
To keep its boundaries and horizons always expanding.02
It has already swallowed
The most peaceful and tranquil lands on Earth
Which lies, high very high on the Himalayan mountain peaks
It has also swallowed many vast areas
Including territories of its neighbors
And now it is trying to encroach slowly to swallow
Another peaceful land of the mountain region
Belonging to peace loving people,
Who believes in coexistence
And in human values.
Be aware and be Alert
The Azgar has big and vast intensions
As it not only eats meat and animals but
Land and mountains, glaciers and lakes
Even snowy plains deep oceans and its shores and wealth
Of every kind in the name of keeping the theory
That power comes from the barrel of guns
As it has already nipped and crushed the dreams
Of its own freedom loving many children old and young.
