Guru
Guru makes three folds on his forehead
He said to the students:
"Study the rest for yourself",
And then
Slowly he walked towards his room.
He is great
His knowledge does not compare to this earth
Stay serious
His mild voice could not be easily heard.
Always stay dedicated
A wealth of knowledge on how to grow
He is not a pair in search of knowledge
Somehow he did not give up, neither he lose courage.
Being such person’s disciple
It is the gift of great fortune
These gurus for ages
You have made richness a great, famous story.
(Dedicated to my best Guru, Prof. Nassir Sabah;
Still I remember his open book and open time questions!)
