The New God, Corona Virus
THE NEW GOD (COVID-19)
In the land of lightness
Emerges the world with dreams
Where the world worship their God
Living in fear and abject poverty
In the land of lightness
The Malaikahs watch with ease
As man embarks on vanity
With challenges of different kinds
In the land of lightness
The dreadfulness of pandemic controls the world
HIV/AIDS, EBOLA VIRUS, LASA FEVER,
Became gods.
In the land of lightness
Covid-19 is now the God of gods to man
Arresting the world like criminals
Sending people to the journey of no return
Aborting dreams of man
In the land of lightness
Where the gallant soldier now controls the world
Making the earth disastrous
Who knows what comes next?
Almighty Father !
Forgive us our sins
Shower your blessing like rain
Live to give. Death is inevitable, life is very short. Corona virus is real. Stay safe.
