I
No song I have my blessed child
No thoughts which could bid adieu,
As you travel to yonder world
Where you'd start your life anew;
II
Know the Almighty will bequeath
Upon you his blessings due,
Fair angels will be by your side
And cupids will play with you.
III
You will bask in glory and joy
Of the past you will not rue,
Live in gardens of paradise
Immersed in a blissful hue.

I can feel the poignancy behind the lines the poet looking for comfort through the belief in a world beyond. We all ache to see again those beloved ones we have lost. Sometimes just a glimmer of hope will carry us through the most extreme sorrow. Thank you Amar for this.
Amar, it is great to see you as the poet of the day! Congratulations! You truly deserve this honour. Know the Almighty will bequeath Upon you his blessings due, Fair angels will be by your side And cupids will play with you. Farewell is a touching poem that tugs at your heart strings. Only three verses, but you have expressed it through deep and surging emotion. A full vote for you Amar.
Thank you Geeta... which reminds me that I am yet to send you a copy of - Elegies. I shall within the next coupe of days. Regards!
Full of tenderness and grief that touches the heart. Passing of a child....a very difficult scenario that has been expressed so well. Thanks for sharing. You certainly have done justice with your inspiration.
