Not Ashamed To Beg
NOT ASHAMED TO BEG
On my left, there is a
pantomime.
On my right are those things
I wish I had,
But are never mine.
Please give me food, they'll
give me ounce
Sometimes, they give none
They'll say,
Don't come tomorrow else
you'll be bounced.
If begging is not a sin
I'm not ashamed to beg
If begging won't make me marry
the Obama's kin
Still, I'm not ashamed to beg
See me,not as a beggar but
a man wealth hasn't seen.
On my breath, thee placed an
embargo.
Else,
I would've traded with a cargo
I've got no money,even God knows
I'm hungry,you can easily see
my nine bones.
When I Beg,
Please show me some love
and help
Don't give to me those
gestures of despair.
I'm not proud to beg,just don't
want to steal to make a earn
Not ashamed to beg,please
cleanse my tear.
