The Ten Commandments
To the one whose cry was their cryAnd every success was their pride
His first words -
Was calling their name.
To the one whose struggles they could solve
To the one who they'd suffer poverty for
To the one who was born through terrible pain
To the one who carried their heart
For when he traveled far.
Honor thy parents!
To the one who'd picked her heart
To the one whose home is her shelter
She is his helper
And his name is hers.
To the one who she'd always followed after
To the one who's the only one for her
With whom she shared, for good or bad,
A moment of disappointment, moments of joy
To the one who lives with the mother of his children
You shall not commit adultery!
To the one whose honor is in his integrity
And all of his possessions are from the sweat of his face
He who taught his sons the way of light
Modesty is his way.
To the one who settles for what there is
And sleeps peacefully, unafraid
To the one who loved all of his neighbors
Poor, rich, young or old
And he does not wish for more and more
You shall not covet!
To the one who was born in the shade of a cloud
To the one who gave birth and raised children
And at times of distress
He prayed.
To the one who feels a light flutter
Upon hearing songs, the chirping of a baby bird
To the one that the welfare of others
Means more to him than race, sex or religion
To the one who shall never forget these
You shall not murder!
