A Tear came into my Eye...

A new born baby came here,
    spreading happiness every-where...
birds seems to fly high in the sky,
    a tear came into my eye...!!!

Now is the time to go for purchase,
    buy new toys with which he plays...
tickle the child and make him happy,
    as soon as he smiles, tie the nappy...
first day in school,
    the child badly cry,
and a tear came into my eye...!!!

After the school is over,
   the college enrolls his name...
to become successful in life,
   is now the boy's aim...
but when he fails,
   even after many try,
a tear came into my eye...!!!

At last he's now a man,
   a man of prestige and honor...
He earned respect, earned dignity,
   earned money, that too in dollar...
its time to enjoy,
   time to eat a pie,
and a tear came into my eye...!!!

Life is just like that,
   both happy as well as sad...
but we should always laugh,
   yaah, even if the time is bad...
at the end, when the person die,
   a tear came into my eye...!!!
