To Adore
From the lap of the lord to the lap of the lord
We are innocent babies to cherish mercy of God
So kind and benign our follies he always ignores
Sparingly showers all lovely blessings from stores
To please us He created all the beautiful things
All lovely autumns and all soothing springs
All beautiful colors from earth up to the sky
Given all powers to body and soul to fly
Has given us the strength to aspire and explore
Then why should not we be grateful to adore
We are now bound to follow all the rules of sanctity
To prove how that we can rise and be on edge of eternity
Col Muhammad Khalid Khan
