Give Me

Lord! Lord! My above Lord!
Give me peace not a war 
Give me freedom not servitude 
Give me uprightness  not partiality
Give me voice not the muteness
Give me bread not starvation and thirst
Give me friends not a foe
Give me a  pathway not blockage
Give me a care not negligence 
Give me a love not hatred
Give me a melody not cacophony 
Give me a piece of advice not deception
Give me  motivation not discouragement 
Give me purification not contamination
Give me hearth and home not vagrants 
Give me  shelter not a danger 
Give me a laughter not tears 
Give me light not the darkness
Give me recognizance not ignorance 
Give me  life not the death 
Give me an honour not despise 
Give me the truth not falsehood 
Give me bliss not  misery
Give me a protection not violation. 
Give me! My Lord,I supplicate you 
Hear my prayer, O Lord! I submit before you
Who did rob my tranquil
Who did bring that trouble in my land 
Who set  that sun of peace
Lord! My Lord! I beseech you
Obliteratewarfare and rejoice harmony 
Let this whole world enlighten
Enlighten  with pure light of fair and justice 
Let this world be freed of maladies
And conformity be restored.
