From Now On

From now on, I'll thrive to rise and smile
Turning aspirations into dreams fulfilled
Satiating desires in your ardent company
Transforming all grief into wondrous glee

From now on, I yearn emblem of liberty
Taking you with me to places of serenity
Embracing the ways of celestial harmony
Finding solidarity in expanse of the free 

From now on, I'll be the lighthouse on hill
Beaming my vision where dawns arise
Lifting fog of mind with golden sunrise
Finding you there where passion resides

From now on, I seek your tranquil vicinity
Feeling affinity in your cherubic beauty
Responding in kind with utmost affection
Dedicated to virtues of lasting devotion

From now on, I grant you all of my life
Committed to your wish till the day I die
Leading your path for directions to joy
Where in our paradise, we live in smiles
