Spare a thought for innocent animals
How not to steal from a mamba
That came to your house
To check on your children
How a little snake mamba
Comes in like robin hood
Asking children
Have you eaten anything good we can share
With a simple prayer
Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim
And maybe a little portion of food
Left for him everyday
Even in your thoughts
And blessings from God
The little mamba moves away
Singing dancing
I've enchanted them all
To give a little to time and thought
To animals on this earth
Living and struggling for food.
