Moon Lim Huiying
To all the Gurkhas of the world,
Can you feel my very own words,
Are you fighting like a samurai with a sword,
Or praying for your brothers to the lord.
You all are heros with no fear,
Just armoured with your weapons and some gear,
Charging into the fortress but your enemies cannot hear
Not even afraid of hearing death with your ears.
I will salute you all till the end,
Fighting not for your country and not for your land,
But for someone else’s home and their sand,
You are heros and I know you will do what you can.
I wish that I had the chance on this very night,
To curve my name on my friend’s khukri under the light,
So that he will remember when he draws this knife during his fight,
The Moon that is following his every move to strike.
I will always remember your smiles,
I still keep our photos in my files,
I hope to feel you from far even in miles,
So dont forget me when you return back to Nepal…”

Dear Moon,
ReplyDeleteThank you for droping by and I really appreciate your poem. I read your poem first in Nepalsingapore.com really liked it and told my coleague Bhuwan Sharma to read and he really liked as well. Then we decided to publish it here and hoping everybody will like it.
Thanks once again.
hello Deepak,
ReplyDeleteThank you. its no problem. i am glad to share my poem. I did not know about this website. its a pity i dont understand nepalese writing.
Have a great evening. Are you currently in Singapore?
Sincerely,
Moon
Thanks moon;
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your poem in this blog. We assure you that we will provide you with the best platform for your articles in the coming days.
Dear Moon,
ReplyDeleteNo, I am in Adelaide, Australia. Probably, I will be in Singapore around November for few days.
My dear Everyone, dont be sad,
ReplyDeleteI will tell you something, dont get mad,
Life is really not that bad,
Money is not everything that we had.
I may not be your destiny,
I maybe small as you can see,
I may not be your lock that matches your key,
But i hope to be there for you when you need me.
Just put all your troubles inside a box,
And throw it away with all the strength you have got,
I know its difficult as it will weigh a lot,
Just know that its not completely all your fault.
No matter how much you try to reach so high,
Time will just be flying by,
So there is a reason why the moon is in the sky,
For you to share your problems with it till your mind turns dry.
Time will come for those who fail the test,
You did well, and never meant to make a mess,
God will know that you gave your best,
So its really time for you to take a rest.
When winter comes and water turns to ice,
Just lie down and close your eyes,
Feel the wind until it slowly dies,
Like how i wish to feel beside you that is so nice.
- Love, Moon Lim Huiying -
