EVERYTHING IS YOURS......

Lamp is yours, wind is also yours, hope this light not go away
Sea is yours, ship is yours, hope this life does not sink......

Mountain is yours, field is yours, let love spread and smile
let your shade and sunlight is uniform.....

A lightening over there, sky over here, to decorate you
a bird over there, a flower bud over here, are prayers to you
Sea is yours, ship is yours, hope this life does not sink....

A war slogan over there, sound of veena here, are both your echo
That great epic, this thoughtful poem, are both your voices...

Lamp is yours, wind is yours, hope this light does not go away
Sea is yours, ship is yours, hope this life does not sink....
