(A lyrical tribute to the doctors, nurses and other health workers of Bangladesh and the whole world in covid’19 situation)

You’re the front line soldiers
Fighting with humane fires
Against the invisible foe
Risk of life you don’t know.

You’re the heroes of the time
Angels of the earth sublime!

Staking your lives to save others
Leaving your near and dear
leaving your comfort and pleasure.
Trying to light up the world of others
Keeping your future in blur
Keeping your friends somber.

You’re the heroes of the time
Angels of the earth sublime!

Making yourselves confined to free others
Forgetting the time to pray
Forgetting the time to play.
Embracing the Death to rescue others
Ignoring the life of smooth way
Ignoring the flowers of May.

You’re the heroes of the time
Angels of the earth sublime!
