When You Buy Their Sorrow
Sandeep Kumar Mishra 1974 (Sujangarh)
Icy winds filled with chimney smoke
signals the burning of Christmas block,
When colourful lights all around gleam,
the holy monks sing the merry theme
Sacred lilies and decorative ivory fill homes
Town to town our joyful echo roams,
Perch like a bird around the trees to sing
Listen to chorus, sweet jingle bells bring
Meet the beloved ones you missed daily
Hug the foes,don’t let slip away easily,
Rich and poor at the same table
Do the labor but make it a fable
Let care go some hidden place
Let love take its due space,
Drink and drown your worry
No one seems alone or in hurry
Once you have the Christ sign in thy heart
Feeling His grace makes you Gilbert,
The God loves all in their true form
Shun the bad habits in His charm
Time to wish all a prosperous morrow
It’s Merry Christmas when you buy their sorrow
