MY MOTHER'S LAP

When sorrow tumbles down in heaps

                                    When trouble knocks the door with his knee

                                    When patience runs short in whatever I do

                                    When palms begins to sweat and I start to loose what I own

                                    When I tremble with extreme fear

                                    When I see no hope in a gloomy day      

                                    When my eyes tend to drop down

                                    And legs do not hold me on the ground

                                    When my courage breaks like a castle of cards

When my heart shatters like a piece of glass

When my mind wanders far across

When I need one finger to show me my path

When the blood flowing in my veins

Seems to freeze off

 

In times like these when I see

No hope no care no help I get what I need

I turn back and I find you waiting as always I have seen

I find no place in this world

Where I can rest with fearless heart

As I see through your eyes

I know I'll get everything I need there,

You are the ocean of love and care

And I a small piece of barren land

You are the one who always understand,

A drop from your massive ocean

Will flood the plains of this barren land

 

I need not health wealth or retrieve

I don't even feel to strive for the

Supreme lord

I only need a small place in your heart

From where I can leave my breath off

This is my only wish oh Lord

Let me live and die in my mothers arms

For every time I am born

Every time I am born.
