The Real Truth
Transmitted over the ages
Through long- dated divine scriptures
And by trusted saints and sages
In various creeds, cults and cultures,
The chronicle of creation
Of the entire universe
By the very word and action
Of the Almighty Supreme Lord
Is a truth worth penning in verse
Whom to ignore one can`t afford.
It is a truth that has survived
The onslaught of modern science
And has ever remained alive
In the realm of allegiance
Despite the surge of theories
Of occurrence of the big bang
Or such evolution stories,
That in controversy still stand.
The creation of prime matter,
The infinite space and the sky,
The ocean sprawling with water,
Fowls freely flying in the high
Creatures teeming in the seas,
And earth with grass, herbs and fruit trees
Are all witness to divine acts
That remain as definite facts.
The unshakable real truth,
Genuine and definite, in sooth
Is creation of primal man
By the unique, merciful Lord
In His own image as a friend
As inscribed in divine records
In spite of strides science has made
Man stands out as a mystery
And a mist unlikely to fade
From man`s mind and his memory,
Now or ever in the future
Despite all science may nurture.
Such a mystery lends credence
To creation by the Supreme Lord,
Whose will we need to take on board,
Who merits thanks and allegiance
And certainly, our faith and trust
That guide us to the path that`s bright
And perform noble deeds as a must
That dispel the darkness of night.
Creation of the universe
By the Supreme Almighty Lord
Remains the real truth on earth
That cannot ever be ignored,
That will gleam till will live mankind,
Until the sun on earth will shine,
Until the moon and stars will chime
Until the very end of time.
