People! Be bold and don't be scared,
Speaking a foreign language with your own flair,
Don't be frightened of these people,
They are neither multilingual nor intellectuals.
People! Don't be diverted when getting comment,
Crumbling your hopes and aspiration to be the great poets,
They may not have sufficient knowledge to differentiate,
All native speakers of English are not qualified.
