Dedicated with tears to our strict , morose but loving father

Dedicated   with tears to our strict , morose but  loving  father

By
P.R.Ramachander

(Based on write up in Malayalam   received via Whatsapp.Whosoever is its Brahma  , Thanks )




He is   the head of the   household  ,
He is the one who takes  care of it , all his life.

He  is short tempered  , quarrelsome
He punishes you  and  is very strict
He is very adamant  and  is  rough
And he   does not have love in him at all.

He is the one  with all these qualifications,
As if some one pushes it forward    , time runs ahead,
WE know distance   of our connection  with mother,
Is the length  of the umbilical   chord.
But what about the distance  to the heart of father?

Mother’s love is  the truth, it is her power of endurance,
And there  is no stain  or scar  or shortcoming in it.
But is  father   only a machine    without love ,
Who is interested  only in earning money for us.

Is  he the one who does not know how to laugh,
Is he  the one    who does not know  to crack jokes?
Is he the one  who stares   at you if  we  spend money?
Is he the one who chides us and beats us  at home?

Father is rain  , which is your  future cool climate ,
Father  walks in sun, his sweat  is your   future   health,
Father’s anger and adamancy  is your future  good life,
Father’s roughness would  turn you in to  good path of future,
Father’s day and night work   would lead you  to high income.

Hiding his  love silently father   used to stare  at  us,
If we are sick, it is father    who used  to take us to hospital,
Father is the plank   used  to bind  our  arms  when it is broken,
It is he who would put you  in school  ,
And it is he who was  yesterday’s right   and your today’s path.

Who is there  in the world  who without getting anything ,
Had spent most of his life   towards the welfare   of his family?
What is there  in the world which is substitute  for father’s love?
Knowingly or unknowingly in most houses  father becomes a sob.

After   working extremely hard   all his life till health permits,
And after   establishing   all his children in good positions,
When he   wants to take  rest, do not even disturb  him by  your loud talk,
You should know his  needs and spare  no effort   to look after  his heart.

Do not allow the luster   in those  eyes  to  ever fade away,
Do not allow   his pretty smile    ever to vanish from his face ,
Do not ever  allow the hope   to fade  till  he  moves away,
To the security of God;s  hands  and keep him safe with you.
