A NEW WORLD


I dream not of money or fame
I crave to be a glorious name
I aspire to do good to mankind
And to enhance the dignity of every mind.

Strength and courage like
Mother Teresa I need
To preach and practice a good deed
Aspiring for brotherhood all around
With goodness and abound.
Today the world seems amiss
And living here is no bliss.
To leave behind all tragedy and pain
We need God's shower like rain.
I want to be the leader of not one or few
But of the masses and a world that's new.
Where people enjoy the gift of life
When they wake up
Leaving behind all agony and rivalry with
One heart shake-up.
I wish to make them see the wonders of this world
Be they gigantic or small.
