You are the one who dressed me up, for my first day at school When I sobbed, yelled and screamed at you, you didn't say a word And instead, took me to the stop and finally with great difficulties When I some how sealed on a seat, you experienced eternal bliss in your heart When the bus began to move, I looked back at your diminishing figure through window Today when I' hve grown up to face the world, I have realised why I did so, do you know why? Because you were the one, who meant all-in-one Gurukul,hostel and school for me You were always there when nobody was around you never gave me a handkerchief, when I sobbed like a leaking tap Instead you sat beside me till my moist eyes dried and all the pain was gone Then you looked into the broken and depressed me And said Realise your deeds, before you express what you feel That's why today I'have grown upto, look at myself before pointing out at some one. You were always by my side, when I was wrong To lead me the path, on which I am, supposed to finally walk you read for me fairy tales and strories that thought me things till I became capable enough to pick one from bookshelf You bandaged me when I hurt, you nursed me when I was sick. But you asked me to face it when I was hit. You made me strong when I thought I was weak As I grew up, you never considdred referring to anything to learn of the changes I went through You were always aware of my secrets untold and all the thoughts of my mind If you still don't know who you are? Ask the priest and he will tell you, you are God Ask an orphan on the street and he will tell you you are his need Ask a daughter or a son and they will tell you You are mom Yes, the best teacher and love on the earth. |
