We live in strange times
We live in strange times
We wash packets of biscuits and milk
And use alcohol to keep ourselves clean
Cure for disease is not yet found
Whiskey, wine being home delivered
We switch on lights to search for candles
And converse better, when mics are muted
We fear touching money, coins and cards
We fight war by staying safely inside
We feel comfortable, with faces hidden behind masks
Now animals roam freely, and humans kept in bars
The Govt. gives bandhs; schools and offices closed
Still we study online, and work from home
We celebrate our birthdays alone
And in funerals, there're no people to mourn
Temples, mosques, churches, all are empty
Still the whole world is praying unitedly
Strange times indeed..
