In the World of Hell

Born in night to Dhore and Ghore, Lots of roar he was to make, Taught with those the best they had Fought and won the best of bad, Turned to red then black and blood, flooding bones of hellish beasts mighty prince thus conquered hell. 'Prince Devil' they called him thus sirens roar to send him down Into earth with evils blood. Bright and light have seen fire, not this prince, they haven't yet! All of hell had bowed him thrice, every good he split then slice , Walks earth in men and women, Making evil with each spell. mighty prince grew fast in fame, lots of hearts he turned to war After gold, they led their heart As men he touched felt no good. From among men, fed by then, He placed his steps for a walk, Saw no man for long a way Went so mad with not a ray, A sight of light, far in night, Then drew him close to its height, Not light, but a girl there stood, Seeing her, he dreamed a life, Human life with her in it, But late he was far to reach. Not a king, but king of kings, Will he be in days to come, Orders came to steal her light, with dark sufferings, true fright. Tried too hard but failed with heart, Across he stood against dark, Earthly love then bound the prince Hell's world was flared in anger, Evil dark, the king of kings, proclaimed war against the prince. No demon, no prince, she knew, nor he was, from where she knew Fought his heart in best of hells, Days, nights, in his world and else, blackish blood smoked with fire, Blew from hell with smell, desire, The prince of love, fought so brave. killed he was, in deadly war, Hell and heaven, barred his soul for crimes done in all the world. ©Anees Rahman
