Success

At the old lane after 20 years

We five met again listening to each other with open ears

I am an advocate, one is a dentist

One is a businessman and the other is a scientist

But one remained in the village

And we went to cities to gain knowledge

We thought we succeded and he failed

He was getting the message by post and we were being mailed

We changed a lot but he remained the same

We forget that we used to once enjoy cricket, football, and other game

We had the mansions with family members divided by mobile phone

And he had a hut with family members united by telephone

The old us were lost somewhere in the hustling city

But realized that old us were happier playing with the village's beauty

The race for gaining material success

Just gave us more stress

Now we realized that he succeeded and we failed
