CUP OF HUMANITY

CUP OF HUMANITY

Today, we rally, under the banner of humanity

To lift the cup of humanity

The fountain of milk and honey, springing warmth like geyser

From whence we scoop, the cream of existence

Affording us the heat we need to keep our hearts pulsating

The cup of humanity, hope of humanity

Is ebbing low

We have drunk enough from it fountain

It's no more time to draw from its well

It's time to give back, and refill its depths

With affection, care and freewill

Let us all rise to the occasion

The cup of humanity, fountain of hope

Must not cease to flow

Let us invoke our conscience, let us muse our instincts

And refill the cup of humanity

We have a duty to our conscience

Let love, peace and unity

Let justice, fair play and equity

Let goodwill, discretion and equity

Let virtues fill the cup of humanity

Let us conquer our ego, not our enemies

Let us rule over our conscience, not over people

Let us enslave our emotions, not our subjects

A duty we have to our conscience

Only when we pay our dues

In refilling the cup of humanity

That we can drink from it fountain 

Let love should be our vehicle, honesty our driver, and kindness our fuel

In this quest to refill the cup of humanity
