Doli bearers
I saddened to see the merciless scene daily, Doli , doli,the doli bearers shouted loudly, Pilgrims scattered like red pearls vainly, Chaos occurred among the crowd hourly,
I noticed the hardships of the bearers painfully, while the pilgrims mercilessly seated on the dollies joyfully, Their neck tightened by the heavy load dreadfully, And their hard muscled bodies were ached totally,
I condemned the inhuman act vehemently,
And my kind heart melted like snow strongly, Was it good for us to ride on a human honestly?, My throat chocked and eyes shed tears surely,
Poverty pushed them to do the hard work hardly, When was the brutal work to be stopped really?, Economic status of the labours should be enhanced fully, Their work were honoured and gave them respect clearly,
No human being should be maltreated simply, They were the wonderful creation of God only, A bit of mercy made the world less cold highly, Treat them good as you want to to be treated really.
