Enlighten us

O Vakshur-e-Vakshuraan! O great Asho Zarathushtra Spitamaan/ What really is the matter? Why don’t we follow your farman?/ Enlighten us! Show us the right path. O our merciful kind Lord/ Everyone is deciding what’s right or wrong, of their own accord.

We ignorant creatures, with incomplete knowledge are dangerous!/ Trying to be self-styled scholars; giving dicta fake, innumerous./ How does one stop fools from foolishness? These wise men of Gotham/ Help these misguided souls with empty heads and complex bottoms.

O Zarathushtra Spitamaan, thou art our guide, our raahber/ Drill this into their head; that none of them have your caliber./ Teach them to have faith, rely on Ahura and seek guidance from you/ Send us the Soashyant, so that about our deeds we do not rue. ARMIN DUTIA MOTASHAW
