When I was a tiny kid,
when I had a little to ask,
God was very dear to me,
I used to feel d pulse n spark!
When i grew some more,
i felt d need for more,
n i went to God n prayed-
O' Lord! Give me fresh air to breathe,
God granted!
I felt d pulse, I felt d spark.
When i grew some more,
i felt d need fr more,
n i went to God n prayed-
O' Lord! Give me pure water to drink,
God granted!
I felt d pulse, I felt d spark.
When i grew some more,
i felt d need fr SOME more,
n i went to God n prayed-
O' Lord! Give me a car, a bunglow, some gold n blue eyes.
God was silent,
I felt no pulse, I felt no spark.
Grim dark.
Now i feel no omniscience,
for i created God for myself,
for water for air,
for my convenience.
Now i feel no God outside,
Now i feel no light outside.
But wait!
I feel a pulse inside,
I feel a spark inside,
its resonating in me far n wide.
Now i realise melodious song-
of pulses n spark in me in u n everyone,
HE used to sing i never heeded.
God gave me nothing I WANTED,
He gave me everything I NEEDED.
