The wicked Tenants !

A man planted a vineyard,let it out to some farmers,
He went in to another country stayed for a long time,
At harvest time he sent his servant to collect shares,
Sent him away empty, by beating they did a crime,
He sent yet another servant he was taken unawares.

They also beat him,entreated him shamefully,
Manhandled him,sent him away empty,
He sent yet a third,treated him abnormally,
Threw stones, wounded him, life became risky,
"What shall I do" the lord spoke contemplatively.

"I will send my beloved son,they will respect"
The farmers saw and reasoned themselves to kill,
This is the heir let's kill,inheritance we protect,
Out of the vineyard they killed,blood ran chill,
What the lord of the vineyard do except to reject.

He will come and destroy the farmers,
Its God's doing that they must be punished,
He will give the vineyard to others,
Those heard said,may it never be happened,
Then what is in the scripture about the builders?

The stone which the builders rejected,
The same was made the chief cornerstone,
Whoever falls on it will never go unaffected,
Will be broken to pieces such a marvellous stone,
That precious stone falls on any, he will be crushed.
