RELIGIOUS HARMONY - By: V. Sandhya

Ha! Ha! Ha!
Hackneyed! Oh, my friend!
Haggle with parents for friend of and religion,
And you would be hailed by your friend,
And in a hammock with a Christian and a Muslim friend.
No matter, a Hindu, Christian or Muslim but my best friend.

Hark my voice and be a friend with anyone.
You are a very best friend with a Muslim
You still like the religion of your friend and yours.
If whether it is a Muslim, Christian or Hindu
No matter, whatever religion it is,
Haggle with parents for religion.

And the friends are so sweet like honey,
More sweeter than honey,
Like blossoms of flowers,
That spreads its fragrance till it exists.

Ha! Ha! Ha!
Hackneyed! Oh! My friend
Ha! Ha! Ha!
