The sea of life we all sail on rough or tough;
A voyage, distant or brief all cannot avoid;
Such is human life on the Earth we all live
That many have lived, are living and will live.
At the surface how calm and beautiful the sea is
Heaving with the same rhythmic waves everywhere!
But how many caves and mountains are in darkness below
With full of marine lives throbbing in agony and ecstasy!
Human life is also beautiful and better than others
Pulsating with dreams high and low among men;
But how many variations between man and man that
Make joys and sorrows common in the human world!
A beautiful island in the mid ocean attracts the ship
To anchor but the cannibals sacrificing one of their
Men before God chill the spine of the crew and
Make them run away to the ship on the ocean!
Even in the modern times superstitions thrive here
Making men still no better than the island cannibals
For the survival of the society in the world
That believes to be safe in the status quo ever!
Magellan or Polo or Columbus or Gama could have
Travelled so in this sort of adventurous sea voyages
With the compass in hand and an eye at the stars to find
The routes of the past for the present and the future good!
Discoveries they do with pleasure to know the unknown!
Creations they make out of their thorough studies in the world
Like scientists invent things after pains taking research
With intuition and hope to make the ship move forward!
Soon they discover a new continent in their journey
Is it America or Africa or Australia? They know not!
The angels or the apartheids or the aborigines? Know not!
White, or black or brown, or yellow, people are the same!
With binoculars and telescopes they scrutinise all;
Nothing danger diabolic there! And they get down!
Presidential election is going on there in the country;
All parties give them a rousing welcome without a sting!
Who is going to win? Know not now!
Blue or red? Brown or white? Predict not!
The computer finally declares the Red colour!
There ends the reception and the crew return to the ship.
