I Do Not Know

Share

Sometimes what is right is wrong

there are bright lights that make you blind

sometimes what seems like water

turns out to be a mirage.

 

What seems like the clearest Adam’s ale

can poison you with a taste

What you see, is it what is right?

All I know is that I don’t know.

 

Silence whispers words sometimes

in a clamor can be hidden rhymes

So what you hear, is it what’s right?

All I know is, that I don’t know.

 

For a child what’s right is what the mother says

for a follower what’s right is what the leader says

for a disciple What is right is what the guru says

but is that the whole truth that lays, or just a bunch of words that we praised?

All I know is that I don’t know.

 

Nectar’s sweetness can make you ill

the divine amurth can bring you death

like the beauty of rani Padmini

brought ten thousand men to death.

 

What if you lost all your fame and wealth

Would you still be the one you are?

What if you lost your glory and health?

Would you still be the one you are?

What if you lost your whole memory

and everybody who knows you?

Would you still be the one you are?

 

Will I ever know

what is the truth and what is falsity?

What is love or what is hatred?

What is the question and what is the answer?

All I know is that I don’t know.
