On the grass

On the grass

For paralyzed children

Oh sweet laya... you little darling

rain drops in sun...

                                 are still shinning

you ... in wheelchair...

                                cannot stand up

even not strong enough

                                  ...to hold up a cup

 your eyes urging...

 to run on the grass  

though your feet ...are as cold as ice

frustrated sitting ...looking out all day

cry out ...what can make you gay

oh dear sweet ...

can’t tolerate all of your sorrows

let’s all hope ... for bright  tomorrows

trying to swing ... up to the sky

with no success ...

your eyes asking why

we need to find...

 ways of making you to laugh

no doubt with you...

                                  life has been so rough

oh sweet darling... you are in our arms

never lose hope...

on the humanists  charms

 life in smile ...will fade all sorrows

never forget...

life has valleys ... but also barrows
