Daljit Khankhana Poet Name

I Never Thought

Do you know why I am talking to you?
You are very honest and trustworthy.
My mind admits that you will help me,
She starts to weep and repeated her story.

You know why I work in this factory,
I am illegal; they pay me very low wages,
I work long hours and never went out,
They supply me the food, I also stay there.

She was telling and sobbing, but my poverty,
They are getting the benefit also used me, 
Taking the benefit from my nights,
And threatened me, they can inform to Police.

I have a trouble in my country but for food,
And shelter, I never thought, I will lose,
My dignity and honour, someone will rape me,
And I stay calm with this insult as an animal.

Nobody can imagine, how is hard to live?
Nobody likes to depart his home for food,
On this rate, if he knew that he will die, but
Never will think to leave his mother land.

I never thought, the people who have excitement,
And hold the weapon in our innocent hands,
On the name of liberty and a democracy,
Never believe, a democracy is dying on their land.
