DADHE GODANA BORU;Dear Dad

Dear Dad
You are little known to people around us
As a good old man, quite and courteous
As a man, not so much but a bit humorous
And that is all they can say about you, dad, indeed little knowledge is for sure dangerous

Am happy to have you in my life
Many children have fathers but no dad
But I have two in one, I have both
Thank you dad for not many men have kept that oath

You are my nearest and dearest friend
A friend on whom I always depend
With your help the ladder of success I will always ascend
If anyone will ever look for a true friend, it’s you, dad that I will always recommend

You took care of me with precision
And loved me with passion
The advice you gave me speaks all about your vision
To see me happy and outstanding in a million

The sacrifices you made for me is just unforgettable
You were master of odd jobs and that was remarkable
From a chain man to a cook, a carpenter to a herder, all was unbelievable
This struggle will only be seen in “the third world war battle”
This gift of struggle and sacrifice is the greatest gift of all
And forever this, I will recall

Daddy,
I pray to God that you live long
That He grant you good health, for I love to see you grow old but strong
That He grant you a place in paradise, life thereafter, for I believe that’s where you belong
I thank God for your world, your world that taught me to evade wrongs
And that is why your name will forever be preserved in songs
