Clouds scattered in disarray, wander across the sky
Winds ask me for reasons, words cannot explain why
Pain I hide behind my eyes, wrap it in smiles
Home sheds a tear for me, from across nine thousand miles
Set off along a rough path, I found many a milestone
But every time I turned back, blurring away was the way home
Unscathed by hurdles, as I walked the road unknown
Memories of home kept company, tears never left me alone
As I walk along this path of dreamy aspirations
I carry with me, the sweet burden of your expectations
Inch by inch, I shall see myself through the promises I made
God give me the strength, for an arduous move I've played
As I live alone, nine thousand miles from home
My heart's still in my yard back home, no matter where I roam
- Deepak Karamungikar
