When I was born in 1942, World War II was still going. And I began to realize when I became a young adult that if we don't teach our kids a better way of relating to their fellow human beings, the very future of humanity on the planet is in jeopardy.

Youre A Lucky Guy
Sammy cahn / saul chaplin
Youre a lucky guy when you consider
The highest bidder cant buy
The gleam in your eyes
Youre a lucky guy
Thank you lucky stars
Youve got a honey who wants no money
Shell take you just as you are
Thank you lucky stars
Hey fellow, say fellow
Dont you realise its fated, you rated
Open up your eyes
Youre lucky guy
Youre just beginning so have your inning
And let your troubles boom by
No one can deny youre a lucky guy
Hey fellow, say fellow
Look at mr. jones
Hes there and hes staring
Even he must know
Youre a lucky guy
So why not treasure your highest pleasure
And live right up till you die
No one can deny boy
Youre a lucky guy

The Song Of Mankind
If human fails to help humanity..
Who will think for humanity
With a feeling of li’l sympathy
Won’t be a matter of indignity…? ? ?
If human fails to help humanity
Who will think for humanity
With a feeling of li’l sympathy

If human fails to help humanity…..
When a man sells his fellow men..
When a man bids for fellow men..
When a man sells his fellow men..
When a man bids for fellow men..
Uncivilized and uncultured….
Won’t be a matter of indignity? ?
If human fails to help humanity
Who will think for humanity
With a feeling of li’l sympathy
Won’t be a matter of indignity…? ? ?
If human fails to help humanity…
Let us stretch our hands..
To help the needy and poor..
With a feeling of warmth
We can make it sure! ! !
Let us stretch our hands..
To help the needy and poor..
With a feeling of warmth
We can make it sure! ! !
If a man cant be a human…
How would a demon become human? ?
If a man cant be a human…
How would a demon become human? ?
And If a demon becomes human
Won’t be a matter of indignity? ?

Compassion In Poetry
Poetry of the truly great poets
I so admire so often addresses,
high ideals and noble concepts
of our shared common humanity,
therefore great poetry should
respect and affirm true freedom,
and compassion for our fellow
human beings in every land,
on every continent in God’s
creation. The great poets all
address concerns of their age,
the tensions spirit of their age.
Love for their suffering fellow man
‘regardless of race greed or colour’
expressed in a spectrum of compassion.

War water
All men equal
No difference in
Religion caste creed sex
Rules regulations languageS
Low middle high
Nothing like that
Man love man
Watertight compartment
Is not anywhere
Nothing to indulge
In war
Air is there in the air
Water is in the earth
War for water waiting path
Save water for future
Generation and fellow beings
Only love of humanity
Save us from the tragedy.

Tibetan Prayer
'om mani padme hung,
om mani padme hung...'
may all beings be freed from suffering.
may all beings breathe as one.
may all beings live in peace.
may all beings learn to give.
may all beings walk in unity.
may all beings walk in forgiveness.
may all beings lay down their weapons.
may all beings be fed and have shelter.
may all beings know they are loved.
may all beings join hands.
may all beings live in awareness.
may all beings be freed from suffering.

Rotten Mind Set
The run
Be physical
Mental
Social
In any sphere
Unseen crunch
Vaccum
Filled
With deadly thoughts
Relishing on painful acts
Beast when maims a fellow being
Fellow beings when fight it out
And blood when oozes out
Beast in man
Overpowers the saint
Wins accolades
Even from those
Not remotely

Today Is The Day And The Time Is Now
Today it is the day and the time is now to go to sleep
Today it is the day and the time is now to eat a healthy breakfast
Today it is the day and the time to enjoy a little peace at home
Today it is the day and the time to grow spiritualy
Today it is the day and the time to welcome all creeds to the church
Today it is the day and time to compose a love song for friends, couples, Lovers, mothers, and daughters and sons
Today it is the day and the time to pay tribute to those who served in The army
Today it is the day and the time to pay tribute to the fellow police men Of our country that makes our community safe and keeps the criminals In jail

Human beings are compelled to live within a lie, but they can be compelled to do so only because they are in fact capable of living in this way. Therefore not only does the system alienate humanity, but at the same time alienated humanity supports this system as its own involuntary masterplan, as a degenerate image of its own degeneration, as a record of people's own failure as individuals.

Humanity Have Got Lost
Mosques are ruined
Churches destroyed
Castles, thousands and thousands years lasting a huge culture ruined destroyed Ah for the sake of human being greed
Alas for what are all these harmful deeds
When the humanity will find a little bit peace
As long as within hearts the brutality for the sake of stillness will survive
As long as the insensibly of human being will allow him to harm his fellow man for a bit of bread
As long as the pities are frozen to kill innocent children
Ah those innocent kids their hunger and their poor tears never will find an end
Ah those bloody tears of poor mothers when will find an end
Alas my fellow man as long as you don't have a pity
As long as the brutally of your heart allows you to kill your fellow man
The peace is lost
Alas humanity have got lost.

When Laws Are A Crime Against Humanity
Is it always lawful to follow every letter of the law?
Is it ever lawful to deliberately break a nation's law?
What if laws themselves are a crime against humanity?
Some say may my country ever be right but my country
right or wrong this sentiment will accept support tyranny.
I the Carl Schurz version do advocate firmly resolutely
'My country, right or wrong; if right, to be kept right;
and if wrong, to be set right.' Is a moral conscience fight.
To slaves who tremble fearfully obey unjust laws
I say many famous past so called great civilizations;
passed laws making it legal to own fellow human beings
live stock to be bought sold beaten killed at whim of owners;
to aid free slaves help in any way was against grim cruel laws
to be caught in such attempts meant torture death sentences;
yet the right of all human beings to religious personal freedoms is
a sacred indelible right great civilizations uphold high principles.

Life Is Beautiful
Life is beautiful
It's god’s gift to you
It is neither a bed of roses
Nor a thorny mattress
Never feel depressed
When you are distressed
Take life as it comes
Do not cry in difficulties
Take them as a challenge
Face them
With determination
Treat fellow beings
With love and affection
Life is wonderful
Life is beautiful
Life is a battle
One has to fight
Never cheat never steal
Help the needy
Serve the humanity
Work hard
To achieve your goal
Never hurt a single soul
Respect the elders
Love the younger
Make lots of friends
And enjoy the life
