Remember no Men are strange no countries foreign beneath all uniforms a single body breaths like ours the land our brothers walk
up
on is earth like this in which we all shall lie
The two aware of Sun and air and water aur feed by peaceful harvest by war's long winter starved their hands are ours and in their lines we read a labour not different from our own
Remember they have eyes like ours that wake aur sleep and strength that can be on by love in every land is common life that all can recognise and understand
Let us remember whenever we are told to hate our brothers it is ourselves that we shall dispossess betray condemn remember we who take arms against each other
It is the human earth that we defile our hells of fire and dust outrage the innocence of air that is everywhere our own remember no men are foreign and no countries strange have you ever though of some people as strange other countries as foreign we have many ways of thinking of other people as different from us as them them may belong to a different country or speak a different language in this poem however the poet reminds us of the many ways in which we are all the same for we are all human
