Qaiser Ali Khan - We and THEY lyrics

Look around here among birds and beasts, We are the most beautiful, strong and wise Yet we suffer most, love most and care most. And they are ruthless, witless and crave for praise, They, who were created to comfort us, had disgraced us, Defiled us, defamed us and doomed us. Our great grandfather Adam, was dethroned due to her, Evicted from heaven and were sent to earth To labor and toil, and every one of us Is cursed to hellish doom, why? For the sins of his wife, daughter and mother? Woman is a curse upon man as well as a boon, She is by nature stupid and buffoon Love, pa**ions and emotions are mixed in her metal So that she cannot think, but only babble. Incapable of reasonable decision, worthy cogitations, Loyal, faithful and of fiery nature, yet she is For her sheer overwhelming emotional nature A melting maid, untrustworthy and imperfect. She takes herself to be the apple of our eye, We praise her, love her, care for her, Ay, yet She is a prig, our unconscious, irrational rib Did not care for us, but only jeer us… Plays with us, with our hearts and minds, Through her wily arts and alluring niceties. We are for one another, no better than one another Yet what have been decreed by the Almighty Is true and will remain forever true… We are their custodians and they our honor We are their providers and they our healers. They must know their place and be grateful to us I say so for not that I hate them, but for I love them more.
