What is this Life if Full of Stress What is this life if, full of stress, We can no time find just to rest; No time at dawn to greet the sun At the far distant horizon; No time to inhale the fresh air And at nature`s beauty to stare; No time our flowers to admire And their sweet perfume to desire; No time to stroll along the beach And the heart of a bay to reach; No time to stalk the setting sun And by the full moon to be stunned; No time to gaze at stars at night While they shed their silvery light; No time to connect with oneself And scan depth of the inner self; No time to ponder on our soul That drives us to our final goal, And no time we can quite afford To offer prayers to the Lord.
