Inside a Mosque On a Friday Prayer
UhUhUh! Even cattle on sunny hot days
Feel suffocation
Inside windows-doors-shut sheds
(yes! i have seen it, how their eyes bulge out and redden,
And they take deep sighs,
And look perplexed in fear.)
And no one! no one! minds it, here
In this huge crowd!
Even this arrogant hands-raising-high
Moulvi...
Oh! I get angry
But soon i cool down,
As it quickly comes to my mind, the old saying,
"As is the preacher So art his listeners."
