Survival a tall order now--
How to find food for the family?
They're worse than a dog or a cow
In the face of an unexpected tragedy!
The booming cities with tall buildings,
Built from their labour and blood,
Become cold, crushing their yearnings
As the river of sorrow rushes in flood!
Helpless without any transportation,
They are forced to walk to their homes
Along with the ghost of starvation:
A perilous journey without domes!
A pregnant woman being carried
On a wheeled wooden plank
