I am poor, as poor as you
So why do you come to me being so blue
What can I do to ease your pain
When I am feeling exactly the same
I am broke, as broke as can be
But yet you ask, "Why want you give to me?"
How can I make you understand
That I too was born of earthly sand
Even though I have nothing
I will give you this one something
I give unto you the last of my lot
I give unto you all that I got
I give you my blessing and love
They were given from my FATHER above
I give you my mind
So that you will not be blind
I give you my hand
To hold so you can stand
Now I have given all that I had
I no longer feel so bad
'Cause I know that some day soon
Those blessing will return in a monsoon.
