Where flowing rivulets wail their thirst
Where trails lead to filth and dust
The lark chirps of misery and dismay
Where the wolves lurk to snatch their prey

Where the breeze mourn the loss of love
Where mercy lies under assault above
The sinners are kings and crime the queen
Where honour and virtue have left the scene

Where money allures and ego thrives
Where greed rules and hatred drives
The Eden of thorns nearby grows
Where roses stink and gloom glows
