Let there be light
O God from birth till death
Let there be good light
For I want my path
All shining and bright
Burn not thousand suns
Nor a thousand moons
But light a candle for me
Carrying all worthy boons
With these celestial boons
Sparkling in my life
Let me march with delight
Unto my death all my life
Darken not a single thought
As if moon shut from night
Put not my soul, O God
In lonely cage of fright
For thoughts that darkness
Sprouts in any mind
Darkens the darkness more
For the entire mankind
Dark are the graves of men
With hopes all gone in dust
Darkened by the acts of dark
Bones too are laid to rust
Yet we place an earthen lamp
On the grave’s opaque cover
For the bodies without soul
Those are blind for ever
What use is of the light?
That we mortal create
What charm in lying low
In the coffin we rivet. 00000
