Who could have thought
A shy child and gangly adolescent
Could turn into a man of adventure?
Who could have thought
A provincial with parochial upbringing
Could turn into a man of sophistication?
Whether it’s destiny or determination
Doesn’t matter
Go on chasing your dreams
At home or in faraway lands
As your namesake father
Always I’ll be there to support you
With paternal blessings
And fervent prayers.
