We will get over this

We took wonderful steps

Before, to depollute the earth.

We will get over this too for

Sure, we will find ourselves

A permanent cure.

Banning smoking from

The public places, no mean task;

But the whole world was united

In its stand, smoking on the bus,

on the train, inside the offices

Premises, on the plane,

Completely effaced,

The world breathed afresh.

Remember what we did to

Safeguard the lives of

Those who couldn't speak for

Themselves, yesterday's

Sought-after hunters,

Are today's poachers,

No mean feat, but the global

Accord brought about for good

Those killers’ defeat.

These two shining examples

Had shown us how we could

Transform ourselves.

Like we saved the animals

From the hands of the branded

Slaughters, like we cleared

Smoking, an injurious habit

From the public domain,

We will free ourselves too

From the deadly virus.

Let's pat our back,

United as it were,

We'll put life back on track,

Like we did before;

We will triumph, for sure,

We will save the human race,

We will demolish the trace

Of the virus from the face

Of the earth, we will wash away

The remnants of the disease,

We'd walk, meet, greet each

Other again at ease.

Thanks to the relentless efforts

Of all the ignited minds, thanks

To the loving hearts

Of the indefatigable soldiers,

Those precious selfless caregivers

Life will continue to thrive;

With their fearless fights,

Their indomitable smiles,

We will put the coronavirus

Behind us, we will live again

without the fear of losing lives.
