Lord, please give me back my days of innocence,
When I read Nancy Drew and Charles Dickens!
When I grew jasmines and roses,
And played with puppies and kittens!
Lord, please give me back my days of adolescence,
When I watched tennis and cricket!
How my heart leapt at every wicket!
When I perched on the window sill
watching every raindrop at my will.
Lord, please give me back my integrity
When I did all things with honesty!
Lord, I am exhausted of this trajectory
As I find a diminished sincerity!
Lord, as I march on in life,
I fail to realise why this plight?
Lord, please give me back my purity,
To maintain my sanctity and sanity!
