I will stand by you
I will stand by you;
Even if you go to the moon, I will follow you, to give you pills from the entire holdup you shall face.
If you go to Afghanistan;
I will follow you, to protect you from unjust acts and bomb blasts.
If you go to the North;
I will follow you, to protect you from the sun, knives, scorpions and also bomb blasts.
If you go to hell;
I will not follow you, for I shall take you to the first class castle in Heaven.
If you fall into a river;
I will not also dive in with you,
because I am too handsome and smooth in nature, to visit hell,
but be rest assured; that I will rapidly call out for help, to all the fisher men around to come and fish you out
Yes! this is because I have promised to stand by you.
But I can't remember promising to dive or die with you.
I will stand by you;
to make you strong and fit, when you are weak and falling apart.
Surely, I will help you find the lost parts of your health, and also turn the rocky part of your emotion into bread of life
I will stand by you;
to dry your tears and sweat, in your trying and crying times
I will never end nor quit in pulling you out of your pool of pains and sweat.
This I accurately promise!
I will stand by you;
even if I turn to dust or rust,
I will come form the heaven of the wind, just to sing for you.
Because you stood by me when all angels were nowhere to be found.
I will stand by you, for just being with you; brings might, life and success to me.
For this; I will always stand by you, my unquenchable light of joy.
