If You Are Tricked By Devi's Beauty

I just do not care myself If you are tricked by a devil’s beauty And rush to staunchly support me And squash all the allegation pitted against And term me an honest or innocent and set me free Yet I won’t go to support me I stand strongly against myself As I found me guilty in many counts And they are more than thirty three In telling lies and hatching conspiracies In slandering people and in biting back behind the curtain As a judge I award myself a kick and thirteen lashes And put behind bars for years ninety nine You may be tricked by a whore’s glamour and beauty And set me scot- free I do not do the same As I find myself the sole witness against me And I know how did I do myself the sordid things I warned my tongue I threatened my mind never to use My hands and legs to do misdeeds I did not care myself; I just did not care myself And till date continue telling lies Do you catch me this time ? or are you still under the tricks of a devil's beauty ?
