A Day of Drunkard
While sipping the brew from the bottle
The world is just a big bubble
Where the law is always denied
For the people, I am a drunkard on the roadside
As the sun rays leaks from the canopy
I can hear the birds chirp happily
As I throw grains on the canopy
I can hear the birds cry hastily
As one start to eat casually
I can hear the others cry angrily
As they fight each other craftily
I can hear the grains fall rapidly
As they fight each other for one
They don’t care when they have lost some
If they had shared with everyone
Than their loss would have been none
While sipping the brew from the bottle
My mind runs in full throttle
As I got lost in my joyride
For people, I am a drunkard on the roadside
As I was pulled from hallucination
There are people making noise in frustration
They talk for the change with minds in hesitation
They talk for the others with hearts in division
They fight for their god, they fight for their religion
They fight for their language, they fight for their region
They lie as they search for salvation
They cry as they mend their relations
They pry as they ask for a donation
They smile as they think of the accusation
Pointing fingers on me, as they talk for their nation
There is some complaining about their life
There are some stress from their child and wife
As their hearts are placed on a knife
They have still not forgotten to strive
While sipping the brew from the bottle
Life is full of struggle
Where your existence can be denied
For people, I am a drunkard on the roadside
The moon hung in the sky of night
Can you find the place of dark and bright?
Just like the hearts in black and white
Can you feel their will? Can you feel their might?
Every day I see many who die
Every day I see many who cry
The world is a journey where you live and try
You try to struggle you try to fly
Who will be the eagle or a mayfly?
Let see who will shout banzai (shouting cheerfully in Japanese)
While sipping the brew from the bottle
I lost in the dream of mortals
Where I will never know about misguide
For people, I am a drunkard on the roadside
