Without Me



Lord!
With the stars and skies
    And the beauty of the sea
This world would have been nice
    If you have not created me

You made the grapes for wine
   The trees for fruits and shade
You made the stars to shine
    But what for was I made?

When you had carved the lands
    And adorned them with the sea
With your wonderful hands
    Why did you create me?

The deer's can jump and dance
      And the birds can sing for you
The flowers can make garlands
     But what is it that I can do?

Without wars and cries
         Boundaries and blockade
This world would have been nice
     If I had never been made!

For desires, lies and greed
     And the birth of every sin
Lord! I am indeed
      The point of origin!

Without the tears from my eyes
    And sorrow pain and burdens
This world would have been nice
   With only trees and gardens

With birds and butterflies
       Sans all caste, creed and race
This world would have been nice
       With only nights and days
    
There is beauty in the breeze
And the dance of the lovely trees
There is fragrance in the air
And  beauty everywhere

The summer, winter, spring
 And the lovely birds that sing
The silent clear blue skies
And the little stars are nice
In such a beautiful world I see
Lord! why did you create me?
         Why did you create me ??
