First Gleam of Dawn



There are many things that I ask
Many of these concerns my task
These concerns are seen in one's heart
And one of these is: a Fresh start

For a student who failed a test
For a teacher who passed the rest
For a farmer whose crops got swept
What is a fresh start to those who wept?

The blossoming of the flowers
The rising of strong towers
The golden rising of the sun
and its rays urging to run

I kept on thinking: What did I do?
To deserve this chance, noble and true
A chance of a better life
A chance of not holding a knife

Now, then, what is a fresh start?
It happens not in the head but in the Heart
to rise and rise again
like the First Gleam of Dawn
