My dearest Uncle,

Now your birth-day I know
That holy-date time could show
Kind emotions into me flow
My mood is no longer low

Noble qualities you possess
Silently the World you assess
In nothing you are short or excess
Being calm is your prowess

When annual holidays start
Your memories will fill the heart
At no time you will try to outsmart
Soul will be crucified when you depart

You are Grand Parents' dearest son
You left them for to-get-a-job reason
Grandpa became a dejected person
I noticed this during a summer season

Around you we nephews lovingly surround
As your heart and mind are very sound
Your lovely and kind approach do astound
This is because of your family background

You are always very soft-spoken
At no time you have mistaken
You always issue love as a token
Everything is by you sportively taken

You always avoid useless argument
You respect others' sentiment
You give to serenity appointment
You are God's perfect enactment

How can we forget your magnetic personality
Which is full of mercy and divine magnanimity
You know not in life the meaning of enmity
You are an Angel made by Deity cum Almighty

You will never at all contradict
Using optimism you will predict
In being quiet you are strict
All will benefit by your verdict

Let us all be by you usefully educated
As to how pessimism can be truncated
Your greatness is by you finely vindicated
Your good nature is by your acts indicated

May you and your family live in full peace!
May all your possible troubles soon cease!
May your happiness multiply and increase!
For you in prayer I bend prayerfully my knees.

Once again for you I sincerely pray
God will surely provide a fine way
Let us obey all morals and calmly stay
Surely we will ever have a fine day.

With love, Yours affectionately,

M V VENKATARAMAN
