Whether we like it or not
We are travelers on foot
We walk the whole waking day
We walk the whole sleeping night
Whether we like it or not
We have to lift our feet
and shuffle our steps forward!
We can’t make any excuse
We can’t say, ‘I’m tired
I want to rest for a day
I want to recline on a soft bed’
Forget a soft bed, my friend
We can’t even sit under a tree
To lean again the trunk!
We may own a fleet of luxury cars
But we have to walk with
The barefooted we
sneer at
Till we reach our destination
Our steps are counted and
The last stop is prescribed
Whether we like it or not!
