Let the Stars Shine
A heavy year has passed us by Telling us stories that made our hearts cry But many others said that the year was just fine The clouds will pass, let the stars shine. We have been to the hills and explored the sea We have been to a foreign land, that too for free Sometimes, however, we were happy to go back To home, to family, where the alleys called out 'Welcome Back!' There were heartbreaks that taught us that life isn't fair Rough time and tough time was everybody's share But the spirit didn't agree and it said 'I'll fight' Through darkness and through sunshine, we held our hands tight. A new year beckons and we pray that it goes well There will be new beginnings and entertaining tales to tell Share we must - our happiness, sorrow and good wine The night sky be this beautiful, let the stars shine.
