Let Us Sing Our Own Song Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon
Let Us Sing Our Own Song
Let us not sing
In the voice of others,
Let us find
Our own voice.
Let us not use
Someone else's muse
Let us find the music
In our own self.
Let us not look for
The diya lighted by others
Let us find the light
Within ourselves.
Let us not try grabbing
What the other has
Let us inculcate
The power to eschew.
Let us not emulate
What the other does
Let us live
Our own life.
Let us try being ourselves and live our own life.
Let us give up greed for power and money and embrace His commandments. Let us live a life worthy of Him.
May I express my gratitude to noted poet Mr Ramesh T A for including this poem on his favourites
