I take a leave for my heart aches too bad,
My lungs sore and dry with all the burdensome breaths I take;
Uncertainty and fear be my best friend for all the unstability and lies,
I do will to warm this frozen heart of mine as time passes by;
Oh Lord console and defrost these blood veins tonight ,
I want this dustsheet of despair from my soul to uncover;
As I look out for spiritual healing to hover all over,
The mud, the noise , the shake, the rattling must stop & fade;
As I walk towards your abode,
Oh I will reach there ;
With every small and dainty steps I take,
But dont you forget to hold my hand ;
Draw my path as I am lost even in a broad daylight,
I seek you for you know the map,
Its been ages since I have had a peaceful nap;
Eyes tired, throat parched ,
Pain engraved deep in valves ;
You tame this soul and make that your own,
To you everything is known ;
Oh I will bid a bye ,
Oh I will bid a bye,
Waiting for you to come ;
Just pat my head and rock that cradle ,
Put me to sleep with the best lullaby ;
Whisper me the lights of universe,
Hold me close for I have none to loose;
In your arms I retire happily tonight ..!
