Coronavirus, Please Go, Please Go, Respect Our Right To Life! Poem by Bernedita Rosinha Pinto

Hi World,
Let me tell you about a Virus
called the Corona-virus...

Everyone is asking me to
stay safe, keep distance
between you and me;
but I am not an untouchable
I am not inhuman;
yet, I request you
to keep away from me;
as the virus is in the air
it is so dangerous,
it can kill you and me;
let us be careful
let us take precautions
let us keep away from each other.

I know you are not an untouchable
I know you are not inhuman
but even you will not want
to be closer to me or anyone.
O' the virus is such a fear
O' the virus is such a killer
it can infect you and me;
it is called the corona virus
and it has traveled everywhere.

O' baby corona,
pls. spare the human race
pls. let us live and breathe
pls. help us survive your impact;
so, stop killing us,
stop choking us
the world is fearing you.
O Corona pls. go and disperse
I pray;
I am not an untouchable
I am not inhuman
but I cant let you touch me
I cannot let you come close.
O Corona, pls. don't touch me
pls. let me wake up in peace;
this life I will never live again
if you choose to infect me!

I am pleading you to release
my brothers and sisters
who on this earth thirst for life;
let them survive,
let them feel free to breathe;
pls. don't choke on them
pls. give life just one more chance.
I am not an untouchable
I am not inhuman
but pls. Corona, disperse,
help my friends to live
help us survive.

We are the children
of this universe;
this universe needs us
as this is the only planet
called earth which has life
and to live it we are here
designated by God;
So pls. Corona, let Mother earth
cherish our existence;
pls. allow us to cherish
our mother-earth, our homes.

We are not untouchables
we are not inhuman
we are the people helpless before you
but permit us in dignity to die
with respect and honor
every person deserves;
yes, it is every person's right
to die a natural death.
So, don't kill us
like an invisible soldier,
I have no enmity with you.
O corona, pls spare our lives
let tomorrow make a difference
let tomorrow wakes us with no fear.

O Corona, pls go, pls go
I implore you
let our children live
let them see the future
let them be the human race
which God has blessed this earth with;
Corona, we are at your mercy
grant us the mercy
and leave us to survive
leave us to breathe freely
leave us to love our universe
which is God's legacy to us.

And as the world has come to a still
Corona, you win, you win
but still I pray to Almighty
to have pity on the human race;
to stop the corona virus please.
O' God I seek for your intercession
I beg for your intervention.
O' God Thou the creator of this universe
and this universe is your gift to us;
help us to live
help us to survive
O' God pls. send corona virus away.
