I want to fill my eyes with dreams
For that I need a little bit of sleep
But sleep eludes me perennially ,
The anguish in my heart is deep
He is the only one in world who
Can allay my pain so steep
Dam of tears is going to break
I need his shoulder to lean on and weep
I planted seeds of love in heaps
And wished that happiness I’d reap
