Selfish thoughts!
Everything is my own -
Those seeds which are newly sown,
The rays of sun that blooms the lotus;
That beautiful smile from a beauty’s lips;
All the heavens and the joy you would get;
And the apparent victory in every bet;
All the boons that God would shower,
Those colourful birds who in the sky hover
Those eyes who shed their loving tears,
And those backs which carry the burden.
The serrate ribs and in it a languid heart,
And that gentle face of a baby in slee;
The flowers that sway and the bee’s gay,
The drops of dew which hide in the grass,
The pearls on the neck of a pretty lass,
The crown of the kind and the queen’s earring,
The smile of the moon and blink of the stars.
All are mine -
Which teach me magics - the magic of life,
That if I can smile for a while
In this mean-mean world -
I can win a treasure - The treasure of love!
