Pity The Nation
Gibran Khalil Gibran
Pity the nation that is full of beliefs
and empty of religion.
Pity the nation that wears a cloth it does not weave,
eats a bread it does not harvest,
and drinks wine that flows not from it own winepress.
Pity the nation that acclaims the bully as a hero,
and that deems the glittering conqueror bountiful.
Pity a nation that despises a passion in its dreams,
yet submits in its awakening.
Pity the nation that raises not its voice
save when it walks in a funeral,
boasts not except among its ruins,
and will rebel not save when its neck is laid
between the sword and the block.
Pity the nation whose statesman is a fox,
whose philosopher is a juggler,
and whose art is the art of patching and mimicking.
Pity the nation that welcomes its new ruler with trumpetings,
and farewells him with hooting,
only to welcome another with trumpetings.
Pity the nation whose sages are dumb with years
and whose strong men are yet in the cradle.
Pity the nation divided into fragments,
each fragment deeming itself a nation.
