Bukankanlah hati..lapangkanlah dadaku..

Today, upon a bus,
I saw a girl with golden hair
And wished I was as fair
When suddenly she rose to leave
I saw her hobble down the aisle
She had one leg and wore a crutch
But as she passed, she smiled
Oh God, forgive me when I whine
I have two legs the world is mine
I stopped to buy some candy
The lad who sold it had such charm
I talked with him, he seemed so glad
If I were late, it `d do no harm
And as I left, he said to me,
"I thank you, you've been so kind
You see," he said, "I `m blind"
Oh God, forgive me when I whine
I have two eyes the world is mine
I saw a child with eyes of blue
He stood and watched the others play
He did not know what to do
I stopped a moment and then I said,
"Why don't you join the others, dear?"
He looked ahead without a word
And then I knew he couldn't hear
Oh God, forgive me when I whine
I have two ears the world is mine
With feet to take me where I `d go
With eyes to see the sunset's glow
With ears to hear what I'd know
Oh God, forgive me when I whine
I have blessed indeed,
the world is mine
Lyrics from a song
So sad yet so true
Can't help but
it lit a smile within me
