Immigrants - Who are They?

Matthew Adukanil Matthew Adukanil

Donald Trump brands them all as criminals

And deports them in shackles and chains

But now the US economy lacks cheap labour

On their farms and factory assembly lines.

 

Pope Francis holds them close to his heart

Being born of Italian immigrants to Argentina

He knows only too well their perilous trips

And cruel exploitation by predatory agents.

 

Many Western countries like the UK, Germany, etc

Now rue their too-liberal immigration policies

With the washing in of fanatics and jihadis

Who savagely tear to shreds the native social fabric.
 

In England, they outnumber native Christians

And go on a planned raping spree of white minors

All over the West, they attack the clergy, burn churches

And boldly battle the weary police in violent riots.

 

Our great Vishwaguru boasts of a roaring economy

Maybe for the Adanis, the Ambanis and their ilk

But hordes of desperate Indian population flee

And risk all they have to reach the American shores.
 

The holy family itself fled to Egypt from a raging Herod

And America was born of multiple immigration waves

So, if all immigrants should quit the US, let Trump be the first

And let the decimated native Red Indian people rule.
