A troubled, angry hindu man, came to ghandi, in a violent race, with anger, hate, and discontent
with hate, hurt, and rage,  his heart , mind, body, and soul, was doomed and bent
     For ghandi, was on his death bed, fasting for non.violence, between  the hindus and muslims, to stop,  killing one another, and  to live, in love, acceotance, and peace
     The troubled broken, angry, hindu man, came to ghandi, who was lying on his side, fasting and ever  so weak the hindu man, threw a piece, of bread down at ghandis, side, and angrily, said , stop. This  fast , for peace, and eat, a piece of bread at least

Ghandi quietly, with peace and love, in his heart and mind, body, and soul, said i will not eat, until the killings and violence, stops between hindu and muslims, and at last, there will be love, acceptance, and peace
then ghandi said to the troubled, angry  man, so distraught, hateful, and mean, then when there is non-violence and peace together with my muslim brothers we will feast

The hindu man, broke down in tears, and pain, he told ghandi the muslims killed my son
the hindu man, breaking down in despair, told ghandi i killed.  A little muslimboy, who stood about that  tall, i am condemned, and i am going to go to hell, my life has no worth, purpose, or jo

Ghandi, calmly patiently, peacefully, lovingly, compassionately,  listened as the hindu man,  broke down in tears and rage, and great shame
the hindu man, kept shouting, over and over again, im going to hell, i have no happiness or joy,  i killed a little muslim boy, because the muslims murdered my son.     Ghandi  softly spoke to the man, and he stopped ranting and raving, and he listened what ghandi to him, did tell.      Ghandi said. I know what you  can  do  to save  yourself, from going to hell, and save your name

Ghandi said, go and find an orphaned, little muslim boy,      Who stands about that tall,  embrace him, and love  him, as your very own
but raise him, with his faith as a muslim let his heritage, history, religion, and culture be instilled in him, taught and known


Ghandi, said you will not be condemned, to hell, any longer
you will be set free from your sins,     Living in peace, and love, wirh your muslim, son, so much greater, with forgiveness, and peace , so much, faithfully loving and stronger
