IT'S YOUR DEPARTURE It's your departure But why are you in hurry? Let me see you properly Before I place you on the pyre How an ordinary person looks I search behind the still eyes Now you can drop the mask Of name and fame and glory That trickster mirror asked you to believe as your life-story It is your departure But why are you in hurry? *** Life-Bird, do not fly away Remain perched a while Before you take-off Wake up to some realities See how many show up In your funeral procession now How many have been able To get up from their table of worries And go up to your door To offer you their final oblation? It is your departure But why are you in hurry? *** Forget about these formalities Forgive them for their failure to do so I don’t know why all this need and greed When life is just a stage-play A play of musical chairs And when your seat is gone Why are you sad For losing what was never forever yours? It is your departure But why are you in hurry?
