If

IF

[A surprise gift to Rajeswer Sharmaji]

If eyes could shed all the tears
If lips could blossoms all the cheers
If law could remove all the fears
If heart could convey all she bears!

If cosmetics could enhance inner Beauty
If peace could be restored by a treaty
If the ugly could be replaced by the pretty
If everyday could be a marriage party!

If everything could be burnt by fire
If all the feelings man could share
If the shape of the Earth were square
If man could invent a heavenly stair!

If sea water were as sweet as honey
If gravels were as costly as money
If stars could twinkle on the seashore
If Heaven could be the Earth’s Floor!

If pills could heal all the pains
If force could shower Mercy-rains
If identical could be all the brains
If all the emotions could express pens!

If water and fire could reside together
If igloos could be made in hot weather
If man could have a bird’s feather
If anyone on earth could replace Mother…….!

If God could be pleased by any means
If sins could be cleansed by any means
If Bliss could be obtained by any means
If Salvation could be attained by any means……..!
