It’s been a shiny star in the sky
Attached to the sky without any bye
Although it has been so far and high
But it can still be close to the eye
Of any inspector of its shine supply
One may ask and enquire why
And how can a star, that in the sky, it lies
Move a sorrow and every soul, it lights

Since it can lighten the darkness of any night
It can always tell that everything is alright

Little star, what’s hiding there in that universe?
Can all the obstacles through it be transverse
When the eyes are closed, a reverie can occur or disperse
Can one get everything one’s dreamed of or is it the inverse?
Can I go through nature or become part of it or will it be a curse?
Is it true that not everything one dreams of can come into occurrence?

There is always something hiding as a mystery
And all the overtakings are due to that fantasy
Which always comes to highlight a new destiny
Without thinking, about whether it is possible or just a losing journey,
All what matters that cogitation is dreaming to infinity

But one cannot get everything that one dreams of
There are always limits to them, one can’t be aloof

There is a sunray that one wants to follow
But since it is too far in its venue
One may become about to surrender, forgetting the shadow
That is created, half by the ray and half by his sorrow

But what shall one discover and what secrets that one can find
The more one gets closer the more the answers hide
One can either succumb or continue, one can decide
Onerousness always derides and one always abides

One has been following a star every night
Asking it and gazing at its faraway sight
Looking at the reflection of its light
On a lake, on a ground or turning every black into white

Ones who always look for their dreams
Trying always to make from their aims
Paintings that are signed with their passed failure waves
To move away without any additional claims

Although one cannot get everything that one dreams of
Although there are always limits to them, one can’t be aloof

But all the dreams hang there with a star
With every pain holding them there, so far
To get every dream attached to the mind of it owner
A little star can always motivate one not to surrender
Every day when it turns darker
One can see the star, getting shinier
Proving that any dream can be achieved and however,
Hard it was or impossible it seemed, it is still brighter
Than any time before, since one of his dreams
Becomes a fighter,
Throwing away every pain
Enduring loss to reach the gain
To achieve a dream and light an aim
However it gets darker

Just as a little star that lightens the darkness of any night
Which can always tell that everything is alright
Although it’s a little star
