Pleasures after my Death

Yesterday I was a little sad,

Sad because I had seen another death,

A death which prodded my thoughts,

Thanks maa and deuta for shielding me,

Against aching hurts and stumbles all.....

Without you my life wouldn’t be

Without your love I wouldn’t live at all....

Yesterday, once again I wished I worked harder

And trod the path smooth....

But now I am happy that I have made no mistakes

That can’t be erased,

I have hurt no one that can’t be forgiven....

I have loved so much

That there will be some tears too

When I die......

And, I believe, people I leave behind

Will miss me sometimes......
