Treacherous Bird
written by: Kamran Akhtar Siddiqui
Oh my son, oh sweet son!
Be aware of this shady world,
It‘s not loyal; it’s not true,
It’s treacherous bird.
If you fly, it flies with you,
It sings your hymns galore,
But if you fail and need help,
It makes your life hell.
Trust thyself, not the world,
It’s a treacherous bird.
