FRIENDS, LET'S DISCARD OUR PRIDE.
A man, who is perverse and proud,
Dwells in a "Misconception Shroud!"
Alas! While staggering unsteadily on a slippery ground,
He daydreams of flying like a Jet the Universe around!
A man of Pride, getting affected with opacity,
Always wrongly evaluates his own capacity!
Being led by Caesar's self-destructive overconfidence,
Alas! He digs his own ditch days and nights in his inadvertence!
A man of Pride, like a hideous slough, is loved and adored by none,
For, he overestimates of himself, while underestimates one and all,
He does little, but blows deafeningly, the Glory-trumpet of his own,
Alas! Replicating a buzzing Drone, he builds himself an "Ill-famed Hall!"
Let's, thus, all discard Pride, and be humane and humble,
Before it is too late for our haughtiness, when we perish and stumble!
