Forgive Me O, Friend
Forgive me o, my dearest friend
For pushing you to the corner or dead end
You were taken to smoking
And then to hashish and smacking
What kind of harm did me to you?
You were to pass all ordeals through
Was it intentional on my part?
Or was a just thought with wrong start?
I must blame my self first
As your parent had put enough of trust
That I shall help him till the last
I took him to deep and dark valley very fast
Was it an ignorance or fine show?
We wanted to be with time and grow
We never knew its ill effects
Just followed bad ways with acts
Not that alone I should be blamed for what has happened
The controversy had already taken place and sharpened
There was talk of the two and we were singled out
Shamed all along as there was nothing more to talk about
When it became know to us we acted very intelligently
We did not loose nerves and reacted very gently
We started to come out of its ill effects
Left everything coolly and preferred not to react
It worked well with strong support from all over
Parent too were sympathetic and provided cover
We did earnestly what ever we could to avoid bad show
The dirt of the river was removed so as to facilitate smooth flow
There has to be cross and double checks on movement
When child enters youth and waits for sweet moment
If he gets good company and proper environment
Everything can run smoothly and there may not be any room to resent
