WATER RUN DOWN MY EYES

                      

 In memory of victims lost due to the recent Nepal earthquake.....

 

Water run down my eyes and tears fills the sky

Life losses all meaning, the heart felt like she would die

The world is left homeless as tide took away her smile

I couldn't bear the world mourning and seeing the morning cry

Thousands are devastated, hearts are broken, fate stolen

Casualties’ every day of natural disaster in a world perishing

Hopes are tossed away, memories of joy drain

Searching for love and happiness of a brighter life regain

Share a minute of silence for all the souls taken away

As we keep praying in our hearts for a better world each day

Let our sorrows reaches heaven's gate until God tarry on earth is grace

For man is edging into extinction as the world deteriorates

THE NATION'S PRIDE

 We are the nation's pride

In the heart forged the heritage of our forefather

Diverse in religion, culture and tradition

Wearing courage, peace, love and dignity

As we salute the bold sacrifices our ancestors made

On the bridge, fate, progress and unity sustained

The tears of our mothers, heals the land beyond the sea

Conceived, is the dream and inspiration of a brighter day

As we carry the nation's flag abound, both near and afar

Show the world we are the seeds of our nation's pride

BREAK MY HEART

Break my heart but don’t throw her away

She is fragile and can't survive that much pain

All she ever did was to love you as deserved

She isn't selfish for her love for you wasn't blind

The storm came all over my heart the day I met you

I thought it would rain that day but the sun was bright

I was wearing the smile of pauper in love with a prince

I couldn't afford a ruby so I gave away my heart for free

You can break my heart but please don't treat me for a slave

I never asked for a favor from you but feelings that’s genuine

Today may be young and tomorrow without a sun

If you don't appreciate my feelings, don't throw her away
