Giants in Jeans Sonnet 19
Be humble to the lowly,
And gentle to weak.
Be a dinosaur to the phony,
And a stone wall to the critic.
It is a mad, mad world,
Where the naïve is up for abuse.
Be naïve and simple on the inside,
But learn when it’s time to act a douche.
Some bullies only understand strength,
If needed keep your strength at hand.
A few firm roars of your conviction,
Will make the oppressors wet their pants.
But be very cautious while using your strength,
Reckless power turns even a saint into tyrant.
And gentle to weak.
Be a dinosaur to the phony,
And a stone wall to the critic.
It is a mad, mad world,
Where the naïve is up for abuse.
Be naïve and simple on the inside,
But learn when it’s time to act a douche.
Some bullies only understand strength,
If needed keep your strength at hand.
A few firm roars of your conviction,
Will make the oppressors wet their pants.
But be very cautious while using your strength,
Reckless power turns even a saint into tyrant.

“Even a whisper of love rings hurricane supreme.” Abhijit Naskar | Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It’s All One
Be the living hope in action,
Not a couched coward of inaction.
Crushing all cowardice of detachment,
Get involved bravely till annihilation.
Wield forth your nerves of steel,
With your heart soaked in honey.
Wield forth your vision valiant,
With your feet grounded in humility.
When all blow the horns of hate,
When peace sounds absurd and dim,
Fear not and take a deep breath,
Even a whisper of love
rings hurricane supreme.
Not a couched coward of inaction.
Crushing all cowardice of detachment,
Get involved bravely till annihilation.
Wield forth your nerves of steel,
With your heart soaked in honey.
Wield forth your vision valiant,
With your feet grounded in humility.
When all blow the horns of hate,
When peace sounds absurd and dim,
Fear not and take a deep breath,
Even a whisper of love
rings hurricane supreme.
