A Tale of a Rohingya

When I saw them burning my paddy field, I pleaded - DON'T! When I saw them burning my house, I pleaded - DON'T! When they swang my baby into the the blaze; I begged them - DON't! Then they gangraped my pregnant wife, Suffocating one inside, I cried - DON'T! Now they turned to me To make me a ghost.
