Do not lose faith in humanity
It is a vast, limitless, spread out ocean
It does not get dirty with a few drops of dirt at one end
On the other end,
look at the sparkling waves gushing forward to cover it!
No evil human powers can destroy its beauty
They only cry for our attention and invite us
To advance with force and dignity
Do not shake with fear at a mere bomb blast
Or several gun shots
Rise with determination like these waves
Do not stop as these are only warnings sent in lots
Move with intention to clean and heal
The naked wounds of humanity
Do not blame anyone as the evil ones are
Also part of this humanity
Designed and destined to be with us to test our humanity!
Ignore them and learn to live with patience and power to heal
It is within you, O humanity
Humanity is an ocean, life-giving and eternal
Can few drops of evil destroy this glorious unity?
