The Plea of a Helpless Man
Being a child, there were some little dreams I saw
In every dream, there was success, with strength and flaws
In every dream, there was a new purpose, a new smile
In every dream, there was a unique happiness, a new life
But now I can see the last of them fading away
In a single moment, my life is destroyed Iike a astray
All of my prayers were in vain, everything I ever prayed
My dreams no longer holds any weight, for by this world I am betrayed
There was happiness and there were tears
There was excitement of success and there was a fear
A fear of losing, Now nothing is left rather than a deep stain
A stain deep in heart, which can't be wash away and is full of pain
After losing everything, like a begger I am standing on God's door
I am totally Impoverished, have brought with me my remorse
A begger, who don't have a bowl, neither a cloth
Someone who has been defeated by world's fraud
In utter helplessness, I am constantly knocking the door of happiness
So far there is no answer, maybe God is busy in His busyness
Just like million others I am also sitting there
With my head bowed down in complete humility and indulgence
For I don't have anywhere else to go, no place, no home
But someone told me that there is alot of space in God's court
So just like this I am here, just want your support
My hands are totally empty of anything that can be offered here
Neither am I aware of the etiquettes that are followed here
For I am a poor begger, who don't even know how to beg.
Yes, I am the one who is fallen from blessing
For my life can't be any depressing, I was destroyed the exact second
I forgot you, the moment I thought money to be my God
The moment in you I lose my hope
O God, are you listening? Your mortal is crying
People think that I am happy, for the eyes can decieve
But the heart never lies, every single moment it cries
There are deep scars in it which can never go away
God
IF YOU THINK THAT YOU ARE FALLEN
HOLD MY HAND AND STAND UP, FOR I AM THE ONE
FROM ME,WHY DO YOU FLEE
I AM DEEP IN YOUR HEART, JUST ACCEPT ME
IF YOU SAY THAT YOU ARE LEFT WITHOUT A SHELTER
I HAVE FORGIVEN ALL OF YOUR SINS,FOR I AM YOUR PROTECTOR
I AM THE NUR (REFLECTED LIGHT) OF YOUR EYES
IN MY EYES, YOU ARE AS INNOCENT AS A NEW BORN CHILD
YOU LOOKED FOR ME IN THE FIRE
BUT I AM NOT SOMETHING WHICH WITH WATER CAN DISAPPEAR
YOU LOOKED FOR ME IN THE STARS AND MOON OF THE SKY
BUT MY LIGHT NEVER FADES AND I AM WAY BIGGER THAN A MOON SIZE
YOU LOOKED FOR ME IN THE POWERFUL SHINING SUN
BUT WITH MY LIGHT, PEOPLE EYES DON'T BURN
YOU LOOKED FOR ME IN THE STORM
BUT I DON'T DISTURB PEOPLE, NEITHER DO I HAVE ANY FORM
FOR I AM IN THE BEAUTIFUL MELODY WHICH SINGS
WHICH CAN CALM A MONSTER AND IS BEAUTIFUL THAN ANY GUITARS STING
I LIVES IN THE HEART OF PEOPLES, JUST PEEK IN YOUR HEART
AND YOU WILL FIND ME, ONCE YOU DID, NOBODY CAN DO US APART
