When you smile...

Dad, these distant stars,

Seems no far,

When you smile…

 

Your gentle pat,

A magic potion

Concocted this valiance in us

To face all the adversities

Of this adverse world!

 

Dad, these distant stars,

Seems no far,

When you smile…

 

We won all the battles of mind,

Of no weapon and no blood,

The armor of your words

Did not let those bullet in

Triumphant, we stood…

 

Dad, these distant stars,

Seems no far,

When you smile…

 

Just the sparkle of your brilliancy,

We…

Glimmer, here and glitter, there

To spread this euphoria,

Just to see your smile

 

Yes, these distant stars,

Seems no far,

When you smile…
