The Covid War

 Go covid, covid go; 

Why do you want to destroy the creatures of the Earth? 

Why do you want to destroy us? 

Why do you want to eat up the world economy? 

Why have you taken such a demonic shape? 

Don’t know who created you, 

Some states that you’re being transmitted from Bats, 

Some states that you took birth from a nuclear test; 

But it’s sure that you’re an apocalypse; 

Right from China to Iran, 

Italy to USA, 

Spain to UK, 

Pakistan to India, 

You've shown your terror throughout the entire world; 

You’re the biggest villain of the century for our Mother Earth; 

Now we are at war against you; 

Contagiousness is your biggest weapon, 

Sanitizers and soaps are our best weapons,

 Masks are our shields; 

But one thing you’ve made us realise, 

That we all living beings have to bring integrity among ourselves,

To win this battle, 

To defeat you; 

Scientists are in constant research to give birth to our hero, 

Which we call as Antidote; 

Doctors and nurses are in regular service for those who have been infected by you; 

All these efforts of ours will not be worthless, 

We have that confidence, 

Because now the whole world has become united and one to fight against you, 

And Unity is Strength, 

Which our ancestors has quoted; 

So very soon our hero will arise, 

And lead us in this war, 

And together we will wipe you out from the universe; 

We will gain our victory; 

Go covid, covid go.
