Santosh Kumar Pokharel
To stop you
Who am I ?
If the air gives you breath
And the sun his light
And your exploitation
The people won’t fight
Unknown of their colossal might
And their nails bite.
I but can take a sigh.
To stop you
Who am I?
As them and me are you
Your grabbing on their riches is issue
That’s been always by you
I won’t you lie.
But to fight them
Who am I?
Shouting I did do
They won’t raise their issue
And saw again they yielded to you
This they are destined to.
So, let this continue!
Tell me now, if you have your say
My voice shall be heard someday
None can this deny.
But now to stop you
Who am I?
