By Anushka Dey
What kind of a miracle you are, oh! Architect of my fate
It’s the greatest unsolved mystery to me till this date
Gallant you are my unsung warrior
A shield from all ordeals, you are my saviour
How do you mould your affection with your fortitude
Would I be breathing, without your solicitude?
Inspire me your words, “Pay no heed, society will frown
you are unique my darling, l believe you will never let me down.”
Your amusement, your delight
Better than a thousand suns shining bright
Through the maze of life, you were my guide
Darkness or light, you were by my side
You sank and drowned, but pushed me ashore
Left me broken and alone to explore
It is hard to part when you are so dear
To my heart you are so near
Arms to rest on so strong, yet so tender and kind
Where else on earth would I ever be able to find?
Your touch, your embrace so tight
Better than a thousand suns shining bright
You ask me to take it easy
How can one do that, when it is driving them crazy?
Force me not to see you depart
For it will tear my heart apart
Bid me not farewell, sing me a lullaby
Before you leave me or say me goodbye
Your absence won’t be acknowledged in sleep
The harsh reality through my veins will not seep
Your visage, when you kiss me goodnight
Better than a thousand suns shining bright
You cannot leave me behind, take me along
Because you are the composer, I am the song
Our bonding will stay forever this way
It will just tighten today, tomorrow and everyday
With your warmth and presence divine
My world will again shimmer and shine
Even beyond the grave, on your lap my head will lie
Because love is eternal, it will never die
Your smile, the seraphic sight
Better than a thousand suns shining bright
