A Prayer Of A Child
I pray to my lord
My life should be
like a wise candle
I should effort
to remove the darkness of the world
like a shining canle
My presence should be beauty
of my country
like flowers of the garden
I should love
to the candle of knowledge
like a moth
I should love
to help the poor and needy people
My lord :
save us from evils
My lord:
guides us to follow the true path
