English is needed now as the bridge to go in the other side;
To stay imprisoned in a country cannot bring joy and pride.

Nationalism doesn't make you bright, it teaches you hate;
It keeps you indoor with no chance to get out of the gate.

Your diplomats speak English but school system put barriers for you;
You are arrested with handcuffs of nationalism in the slavery queue.

What's wrong to practice English to communicate with others?
Try with broken words like those babies and kids speak for us.

What is there to be proud while, leaders axed your language?
Turks, Vietnamese and many chopped alphabets of old days.

German and French folks were mean nationalists, not cooperative with Auslanders;
But now their children are in competitions to become US and Canadian school goers.

You don't have to speak fluent but follow up the mentor;
Fun to know English while you don't have to be Shakespeare.

You are facially beautiful with rich nature and agriculture;
Why no English while upgraded clothes of Hollywood culture?

Free supply of nationalism drug is your school's main treat.
Mine is a wake up call for liberty to unchain hands and feet.

Religions teach us to be liberal, global, nicer with each other;
Nationalism and patriotism teach to falsely claim superior.
