As I am growing older
My fear for losing life is increasing
All the confidence I had in life
Is day by day decreasing
I feel am running out of time
And wasting even a moment seems like a crime

My better-half, I want to grow old with you
I cannot stay a single moment without you
I pray to Almighty
To give you one day extra life than me
So that I can spend my entire life with thee

My dear Children, I want to see you grow
Before God I bow
Begging for your welfare
Without which I would be left in despair

I pray for the betterness of all
And for the wellness of my loved ones
With every passing day
Anything owed to you I want to re-pay

Almighty I trust you and believe in you
As you are above All
Hope you will always walk with me
In my every rise and fall.

Kavita Iyer
