Another children’s day is here,
                              Bringing joy and pleasure’s new,
On this special , Nehru dear
                              I want to remember you.

I can’t adore you  costly gifts,
                              And I have told you this before,
No matter what I gave to you,
                              You gave back much more before.

I am giving you a pure,sweet rose
                               Gathered in the early morn,
The rose you plant in my heart,
                               The day that I was born.

With kindly, loving thoughts of you,
                               And with the faith you still impart,
The rose I give to you today
                              Is the love that’s in my heart.
