Empty handed
February 5, 2007
I know the world was here
The day I was born,
And I know it will remain
Even after I am gone.
When I came, I did not bring
Even a single speck of stone.
Then what right do I have, to say,
That this world is all my own.
I know, whoever made this world
Will always take its care,
If my right it is to use it
My duty it is to share.
A simple thing in this life is that
Which everyone does know
Empty handed we all come here
And empty handed we all must go.

એકલા જ આવ્યા મનવા એકલા જવાના
સાથી વિના સંગી વિના એકલા જવાના
તો પછી હાથ તો ખાલી જ રહેવાનાને?

ભલે ખાલી હાથે આવ્યા અને ખાલી હાથે જવાના, પણ આ ઘડી ભરેલી રાખવાનું સદ્ ભાગ્ય ન ગુમાવીએ.
