THIS IS THE ONLY WAY

This is the only way

There is no other way

When you came to your wife and children

You confirm your way

Daddy comes back from duty

Mummy on her way

To bring children from school

This is her way

Dinner gets ready

This is mummy’s way

India or Australia

There is no other way

When daddy comes back from work

He does not forget his way

Children hug their daddy

Mummy would seem them play

My eyes were blooming

When I saw you coming their way

I was blessing you

Live with your family

All the way
