GIVE ME AN EDUCATION

Spare your opportunities,
and give me an education,
that will grantee skills
for me to exploit my talents, potential.

Give me appropriate education,
to a waken my mind
to venture into a thinking adventure,
to hunt home ideas
dreams and imaginations and creativity
whose wings will spur us
to the unexplored lands
of opportunities and possibilities
never dreamt before.

Give me a virtuous education,
for right choices to be mine
for you never to worry
giving me responsibilities anymore.

Give me the right education,
to vast grow my horizons
beyond gender, tribe, race, status
for a journey into the future:
prosperous and hopeful.

Give me true education,
for me to master my origins true
and embrace, cherish, love humanity
to heartily serve my potion and space
to leave the world better than I found it.

Give me appropriate, virtuous, right, true education,
my life to be a song: its echo to last
giving a new meaning to every encounter,
weaving a new rhythm to every touch
life and love twin to be.
