A man was born 69 years ago,
Brave, courageous, a fighter for the truth,
A man was born 69 years ago,
Who was no ordinary man, not a weak man but strong and valiant.
A man was born 69 years ago,
Who was kind, loving, warm and friendly,
A man was born 69 years ago,
Who had a heart of gold, but stayed firm and bold.
A man was born 69 years ago,
Who loved helping people, but never asked for help,
A man was born 69 years ago,
Who was thoughtful and caring, but fierce and daring.
A man was born 69 years ago,
He couldn’t see wrong in front of him, didn’t matter if it was his own kith and kin,
A man was born 69 years ago,
Selfless, sacrificing, noble and respected.
This man left us three years ago,
Silently, returned to his Lord SWT,
This man left us three years ago,
Our lips were silent, but our hearts spoke
This man left us three years ago,
Even if we tried to forget him, it’s difficult to hide the painful tears.
