WHY DO I BOW MY HEAD?

Why do I bow my head?

When I hear the voice,

rising from the minarets,

My heart soaks, gets moist.


My forehead bears a mark of red.

Why do I try to get a glimpse?

While I pass by,

the holy book or the crucifix.


Why, when I know?

my lord is the supreme

the creator, the preserver & destroyer.

In this light the world does gleam.


Why it is more than curiosity?

I know the boundary is high,

I long to connect with them

and I stop, when I pass by.


When they all bless us with pliss

why are they all different?

There is a fence of barbed-wire

perhaps, because were wholly ignorant.
