Cause for alarm
This already dying community will very soon dead be/ Why have we closed our eyes, why can’t we this truth see?/ With this indifference and attitude cool, pay we will a heavy fee./ Time and tide wait for none; births must rise to at least three.
Wake up from our siesta sweet; and facts and figures see./ A bawi or bawa find soon and marry before five and twenty./ Aspire high, work hard alongside, this to success is the key./ Otherwise, perish from this beautiful planet, wish to, do we?
To this call or alarm, immediately, urgently, if we wake not/ Our problems, most urgently and earnestly, if we sought not/ In arguments, discussions and courts if we waste time, a lot/ Soon about us Parsis, memories will linger and history be taught.
