Do You Remember The Time...

Do you remember the time...
When sands of time..slipped out of this hand of mine...

Complexities of life were miles away...
Wooden swing was what, we used to sway...

A chocolate for a penny...
Oh! I couldn't believe I could have so many...

The grey tones of the television...
Did no harm to my vision...

Singing the Ringa Ringa Roses...
Awakened my heart's sealed closets...

Having the yummy Poha in the evening...
Added to my life...so much of meaning...

Getting on the wrong bus...
Made us all shout in a chorus...

Her frock was prettier than mine...
I couldn't help but silently whine...

Those starry nights...when the stars shone bright...
We all played hide n seek... coz there was no light...

The oh so naughty brother of mine...
Pulled my pig tails... that tall n lanky swine...

So much of laughter....so much of fun...
With each passing day...I miss it more often...

There's so much to remember...there's so much to cherish...
The words are failing...only memories left to relish...

All I can say each time...
Do you remember the time...
When sands of time..slipped out of this hand of mine...

Let The Prayers Take It On...


Ask and thou may be answered...
Fight and thou would never win...
Submit and thou shall be blessed...

When one's happiness...
Fires some one else' unhappiness...
Let the prayers take it on...

When everything is going wrong...
And you can't sing a song...
Let the prayers take it on...

When the moor is far far away...
And all that your Ship of Hope does is sway...
Let the prayers take it on...

When you can't count your blessings...
Your wound is bleeding...Coz there's no one to do the dressing...
Let the prayers take it on...

Don't think that you've fallen hard...
Don't think that you've gotten hurt...
Don't think that its the end of the world...
Let the prayers take it on...


You don't need to know a hymn...
You don't need to know a verse...
Just put your submission and belief into words...
And let the prayers take it on...

Hope is just round the corner...
Blessings are awaiting to be showered...
Don't give up...Don't break down...
Let the prayers take it on...
