HOPE

HOPE

In the dark dark fright

of the long long night

singing burden 

has taken its toll

on the rooster's crow

and the vital sign

is leaving the lantern's glow

A little more patience

                                         -for God's sake                                          

The breeze is gone 

climbing the mountain

to call the dawn

Sorrow shall never last long

           

Sorrow shall never last long

Along the paths of our lives,

We’ve been together for a while,

At the blink of an eye,

Paths split apart,

Demanding a kiss good bye.

No room for panic, my friend!

Stick to Indian greeting, eh!

And no good bye, but “Phir Milenge!” (1)

Or "hasta la vista" baby!(2)

Too informal? let it be.

Let’s sing this song:

No matter what,

Sorrow shall never last long.



One day, I’m sure,

Our paths will cross once more,

Wo ken ding, (3)

You will be waiting,

With arms wide open for,

Hugs, kisses and amour.
