Speech: All that glitters is not gold (final version) For Grades 5th to 8th

Worthy Chief Guest, honourable teaching faculty and dear school fellows. Assalam-o-Alaikum. I am ____________________ from class ____________. Its a prestige for me to speak infront of you. I shall express my wandering views on the topic: All that glitters is not gold. Worthy Chief Guest , currently, fashion, glamour and glittering is in vogue exercising its fullest negative impact on mankind and seems to succeed in replacing the old great social and noble virtues with the curses of selfishness, meanness,extravagance , aimlessness and an ever increasing greed for money and superficially beautiful clutter. Dear listeners, in the blind chase of worldy pursuit a common man, let us call Mr ABC, sitting on non-sensical trojan horse has turned into Mr Glitter just because of the deadly radiation of some shiny material objects. Let me address Mr ABC now: So, Mr Glitter ,you have glitter of skin and get favour from the very beginning of life to your professional career. Your teachers kind to you and the employer impressed. You have learnt just to reap the fruit of your glitter. Vanity has made you bold. But keep in mind, Mr Shine, all that glitters in not gold. Once you were in wretched state with deperate stares at the passing by bikes . But you got it and rode it. You reached a Cultus, then a GLI and XLI, then Mini Pajero to Land Cruiser. This soil looked tightening on you so turned to airways. Very soon Folker lost its charm, you took to Boing 474 . Form 474 to 747 and landed on Concord. Mr Glutonous, even Concord failed and now you are planning tours to Mars. Oh dear Glitter where will you go then ? Sun, yes , sun is the right place for you. Behold, dear behold ! I have heard birds singing that the hellish heat of sun awaits the likes of you, simply because the sun too thinks: All that glitters is not gold. What is your aim, luster. Luster of steel and lust of coin. An appetite for symmetrical geometrical shapes, round corners,smooth edges and beautiful curves. Yes, my dear it is true. You are soaring high just to reach colourful pieces of plastic, velvety fur of fibre, dazzling reflections of glass and everything which matters to life but not. The higher you are soaring , the deeper your soul is sinking in the vallyes of sinfulness and meaness. True, you aim for glitter but remeber glitter is aiming at you. Glitter backfires hollow hearts and shallow minds. Mr Glitter you will soom lose wits. Hold yourself please hold ! Because all that glitters is not gold. Oily tongue twisting, real manners splittering, pride is fluttering and the candy of life bubbling. It is leading you nowhere. Why is your soul sold? A secret , Nature has just unfold. Dear Dazzle, Superman, Mr Superficial, All that glitters is not gold. The poor stag of Esop had beautiful horns but , alas, what they brought? Death ! Nature has neither punishments nor rewards, it has sequences only. One very clear rule: Follow the stag and have stag's end. Perhaps the stag was not told: All that glitters is not gold ! I am an object . I have shiny surface. Who claims I have shiny inner too. Rub a dim surface, it has shiny inside. Shape a diamond, it has shiny inside. Preach a human , he has shiny soul. Sit in the lap of nature, moon has shiny moonlit. Wink in the dark, stars are shiny world. Aid a dejected, it has shiny hope. Bow before God, you have a shiny forhead. Sacrifice your ease and have a glittering peace. Mr ABC appearance is deceptive . Fake glory is just a bread mould. So Bread Mould, Misery Untold, Mr Glitter, just hold because All that glitters is not gold. Worthy Chief Guest, Many many thanks to you and all the dear audience for listening my word with patience. Have a good day and a life at ease. Allah Hafiz.
