No matter how many years go by,
how many decades, how many centuries,
there’ll always be some people who’d
call me a fraud – don’t be upset,

don’t hold a grudge – nothing good
ever comes out of bearing grudge,
just let them be – let them be and
let them go, because I forgive them.

Let them hate their head off,
seeds of heart are already planted.
Apes throw tantrum when they are insecure,
pursuit of delusion soothes the vegetated.

When calls the Kainat*, chatter of
monkeys turn faint echoes from the past.
*Cosmos chimes in my chambers of heart –
veritas est pons, pons est veritas.

My nation, your nation,
my religion, your religion,
my culture, your culture,
will be the end of us apes –

outwardly fancy, inwardly filthy,
sneering, leering, gutter-crawling,
conniving, two-faced, fanatic,
frivolous, pointless bloody apes –

apes who can’t see right from wrong,
without the blinkers of creed –
apes who can’t tell order from disorder,
unless instructed by legal decree –

apes who would sell their own brother,
if monkey kings command, it’s patriotic.
