                                                 Get Ready  

                                    Let us get ready to depart
                             With smiles on our lips and no tear
                               when our journey`s end is near;

                               Without any pangs in our heart.
                                 Let us prepare to move away
                             And give younger ones their way;

                           Without gleams of fear on our part,
                             Let`s be ready to quit this world
                          When tired has grown our own soul;

                           Just before the bell knells its mark
                           Let`s leave our daily dreary strife
                                 After leading a moral life;

                             After living a life that`s smart,
	                  Let`s suspend our human voyage
                           In search of a higher new phase;

                               Let us get ready to depart
                          Without any pangs in our heart
                       Without gleams of fear on our part
                       Just before the bell knells its mark
                          After living a life that`s smart.
