You call it profession, you call it thy test

Few bestowed with heaven and hell to the rest

Torn out clothes, naked voice and outstretched palms

Right at your doorsteps begging for alms

You lend a penny or raise a voice

Will this end the saga of distressed lives??

Few relish infinite dishes without a feast

A dried slice of bread is given to suffice the rest

You lend a penny and witness  spark of joy

Or receive an annoyed look if you deny

You lend a penny or raise a voice

Will this end the saga of distressed lives??

Come one come all lets pledge today

To make them live life a better way

Education will surely bring a better day

So lets free them from the begging sorrow

Let literacy bring a sweet tomorrow!!!
