HOPE IS EVERYTHING

I lay in sorrow and painting

I have lost everything

And have nothing to gain man came to me and asked,

Why are you in vain?

I told about my destroyed life;

And also that I have lost my child and wife

It’s because of a serious accident;

But for me a sad incident

I was weeping for days and night

Then I saw you in my sight.

With a sympathy in his eyes,

He came near and told me

There’s nothing to fear

Have faith in God

Forget your sorrows and cheer

I realized what he said

And forget about my pain that laid
