Analysis of Ups and downs
Arindam Mukherjee 1969 (Kolkata)
SOME THOUGHTS BY ARINDAM MUKHERJEE
UPS AND DOWNS
Hold my hand
Trust me with your life
And I will take you through
those hollow, emptiness.
Don’t be scared of that
Don’t stop your journey
Darkness will end and
The morning lights
will welcome you.
Flowers will blossom again,
Dreams will trespass.
Those who turned their face
Will come back to greet you.
Just don’t lose your heart
Phases are temporary
will come and go
Hold on to happiness than success
Preserve sadness than failure,
Feelings, feelings my dear
Not the piece of paper
nor the sound of coins.
Coins will melt and
Papers will tear
More than your
Heart can bear.
Let go, let go
All the fear.
