What is the Mystery? (1975)

Why do i come and where do i go
What is the mystery behind this show?

Lively moments are just a few
Like on leaves drops of dew.

Five years on mother's lap; five years at school
Five years at college and two years as a fool.

Fled my time of twenty a year
Like a deer due to tiger's fear.

Sometimes pleasure, sometimes pain
Searching for truth always in vain.

Came to this world with empty mind
To play my role and freedom to find.

Ocean-like desires sky-high thought
How can I preserve in the tiny heart.

Why do I come and where do i go
What is the mystery behind this show?

Life is a drama, world is a stage
Bound am i in this mundane cage.

Foes and friends as i feel
All is sham in which I deal.

on the stage:
Some are for fame and lead the game
off the stage:
All are same free of name.

Why not remember this simple fact
To make this world a peaceful tract.

When i sleep they call it the end
But, know it for certain it's the eternal trend.

I come and go sharing the joy, suffering the sorrow
Who knows the end today or tomorrow.

Why do i come and where do i go
What is the mystery behind this show?
