Last straw on the camel’s back

 Last straw on the camel’s back

 

We are all camels carrying too much of loads

 Our eyes are shedding tears due to pain

There few seconds our wisdom will rise

                                         from it’s sleep

Give some cautions to know the sorrows of life

She will smile and give a little pleasure

Your wisdom will be buried in to your desire

Again your eyes will shed tears 

to get a little bit of relief from your heavy task

Again a straw will be removed from your back and

It will be thrown before your eyes

You will feel a complete relief

from all your burdens

She won’t allow you to go out from her hands

Cause she is Maya, very powerful illusion

Her task is to keep you in her circle forever

Though a holy way is very clear and visible to you

You can’t be allowed to go in that way

Cause she is Maya, very powerful illusion

She will remove a straw not of all and

You won’t be let free from Her clutches
