To My Son
Follow This and You Will Navigate This World Easier
No matter what the future holds
No matter how the strain unfolds
I will be right here with you
My role is to help you form a view
I want you to learn enjoying your ride
I want you to trust me becoming your guide
Without a compass and without a map
I will do my best to avoid any trap
Even if we get lost, we will be together
And I wouldn’t care less about all the weather
You shouldn’t take life seriously
As you will live mysteriously
And even if you are not convicted
You’ll soon find that our time is restricted
So, please, don’t get too obstructive
As worrying is not at all productive
Remember that your heart will always grow
When your mind learns how it should flow
Please, never forget caring for others
And you should always treat them as your brothers
Love them as you love yourself
They will help you to avoid becoming deaf
By hearing the world and its beauties
At hard times, they will even take you to the movies
And please, try to hold kind on your duties
In this world, we all live a life of refugees
Remember that you should respect to be respected
And don’t forget — it’s up to us to stay protected!
And to take always time for the ones more affected
The greatest kept secret of all is to stay connected!
