I know

I know

still, blow

my own tune

and seek heaven

 

If I spare time

to look around sometimes

it won't serve my purpose

I have chosen already my path

 

I have a melodious voice

that promises the entire world

to suffer untold miseries

yet, carry it not in the mind

 

I know fully well

and reveal too

even though the path is dangerous

and the campaign is vicious

 

what happens?

if you apply brakes all of sudden

take your steps back

and stake no claim

 

life's journey shouldn't be marred

and mind be misled

to think contrary

life needs some correction daily

 

the thorny path shouldn't deter us

from our faith and trust

let the unfavourable terrain remain

but we shall sing for human beings
