An ass was carrying a very old man,
And his young son was walking along,
The old man was by passersby scolded,
For sitting and making the boy walk.
-
So the old man made his young son sit,
He started performing the walking job,
Again all those passersby on the road,
Scolded the young boy for tiring father.
-
So, both of them sat happily on the ass,
And all the people severely chided them,
As they now were pitying the sad ass,
This made the father and son get down.
-
Now, they were walking along with the ass,
And everybody laughed at them criticizing,
As the ass was not at all used foolishly,
The father and son took a vital decision.
-
Both of them now carried the ass joyfully,
The entire road was filled with laughter,
Father and son thought the ass as a devil,
And simply threw it into a nearby river.
-
Dear man, World will say this and that,
But, their headache is to them serious,
And they may ignore your heart-attack,
So, wisely and calmly, go on your track.
