Wish of An Innocent Child
O My Great Lord!
Always keep me as I am today
I am afraid if one day
I become an elder one
I have head
They are of selfish thoughts
And bring rots
In the Lovely World of yours
The heart of children
Are soft and innocent
They don’t know
How to be selfish
And why after all
When we have to leave
This world
When Thou call comes
If becoming elder
Makes my heart and soul
So dirty and foul
I hate becoming one
I pray to Thee
Humbly on my knee
Either bless me to be
Always a child
Or keep me away
From the hateful avarice
If Thou want your creation
To be a lovely destination
Why all this confusion
Let all of us a child
If not by body
Just by heart and mind
