IN FAVOUR OF HUNGER
Hunger is after all a hunger
Whether it would be below the navel or
above the navel
When hunger is felt
Then a man becomes restless
Hunger may be Marxist or Freudian
When hunger is felt
Then a man becomes rebel
Mankind do not regress even from prohibitions
In punishment of such a perpetration
The residents of paradise were sent down on the Earth
After descending from paradise
On the surface of the earth, one day
Their private organs had revealed
It occurred, as if, the hunger of the above navel
Had made it connected with a never ending phenomenon
Since then, after being satiated with breads of wheat
A man steps down into the deep valley of navel
Set out to the journey,
So that he can connect himself with Adam and Eve ---
The oldest couple of the world
If being static is a symbol of death
Then save this symbol from being static;
To break this static situation
Dive into the spring of life
Install the canvasses of boat
To turn the flow of the wind in his favour,
Hunger is after all hunger
When hunger is felt
A man becomes restless
Mankind cannot be able to differentiate
Among ones own relatives and others
When Kabbel had killed his brother Hubel
Only for the sake of a faceless girl
Since then man sheds blood on the chest of the earth
In deed, the same eternal instinct of hunger
Exists in mankind, even today
Hunger is after all a hunger
When it is felt, then a man becomes restless
