HELLO DEAR,
The poet says whenever we are asked by our leaders or rulers to hate and exploit the people of other countries, we must remember that this hatred would have a negative effect on us. We would find ourselves cheated as it would deprive us of the S bliss of universal brotherhood. We would condemn ourselves to a life of enmity and strangeness.
1. Who do you think tells us to hate our brothers?
The opportunist and power-hungry leaders and politicians, who are at the helm of affairs during wartime, tell us to hate our brothers.
2. Why do we sometimes hate our brothers?
We sometimes hate our brothers because we allow vested and unscrupulous politicians and religious leaders to instigate us. We are taken in by their lies about our differences and begin to consider our brothers as strange and foreign.
3. How shall we dispossess ourselves?
We shall dispossess ourselves by hating our brothers in other parts of the world when we are told by the politically motivated people to do so. These brothers are not foreign or strange just because they belong to different countries, races and cultures.
4. What advice does the poet give us in these lines?
The poet advises us to ignore the directions of those who incite us to hate and exploit others because by doing so we harm ourselves.
I HOPE IT'S HELP YOU DEAR,
THANKS

2. When we exploit others and their land, we will be betraying ourselves because such exploits are superficial term which can provide us short term happiness.
3. Love is the only world which can remind us humanity.
4. In this poem, the poet stated that we can spread love from our hearts and we should prevent ourselves from hating others. Through this way, we can make a beautiful world where no war will be seen.
