Dad, this is for you.


I bow down to you
Your patience
The unconditional love
All those teachings

For those sleepless nights
When I cried in the cradle
For that shoulder
On which you put me to sleep

For that first alphabet
You taught me
For that first day I won an award
The encouragement you gave me

The tremendous support
I've always had from you
Those smiles you gave
When in times so blue

No one can do
What you have done for me
Nor can words do justice
To what I today feel

You would always be my star
That even shines on a rainy night
I love you dad
You always be the reason behind my pride!
