In a world that is constantly changing
it is futile for us to stay clinging
to the expectations that we aspire
and the things that we desire.
The house we own and place we dwell
be it as joyful heaven or wicked hell
we must one-day bid farewell
when strikes the karmic spell.
The people we love and care for now
change with the time somehow
breaking hundreds of vows
piercing our faith with illusive arrows.
The work we do, the job we perform
may demand us to have enough brainstorm
or mandate us to get totally transformed
adding to our life a disastrous windstorm
Yet we must pull on and on.
On the earth, we are born
we must be ascertained
nothing around us is certain
