At That Time

When a person is healthy,
When a person is wealthy,
When a person is intelligent,
When a person is experienced,

At that time, when he has no option,
Accept than cry, time realises its existence,
When a person has only feelings,
At that time when he feels himself a poor,

He feels about the members of a family,
He feels about his friends,
He feels about his relatives,
He feels about his relations,

At that time when he feels helpless,
He thinks he needs someone,
He feels he can’t walk without help,
At that time when he has no option,

He cries for help, when he feels danger,
He understands when crisis threats him,
Why is struggle necessary for mankind?
At that time when he wants to live.
