Listen, with a
raft attention! The clear water of transparency
Lets the light of
trust reach the bottom of a life-pond’s heart!
Alas! The scum of
hiding gives birth to gloomy despondency,
Since it pollutes
and profanes the clarity of water with its dirt!
Oh! Transparency
is the remedy for all complex solutions,
It, like the
sanitizing bleaching powder, ends pollutions!
It builds with
ease a durable dome of unshakable relations,
It sweetens the
aroma of affable and unyielding emotions!
May transparency
prevail in the Elysian edifices of human lives,
May it cement the
unshakable bonds of the husbands and wives,
May it
strengthen the filial ties of the
parents and children,
May it transform
the dull and drab earth into a blissful Heaven!
Thus, before
aspiring for transparency, let’s all be transparent,
Lest, we should
have to ruefully say later “Sorry”, and repent!
