Teacher Oh Teacher

Huzaidi Hashim

Teacher Oh Teacher, teach me how to read

So that I can explore the secrets far beyond

 

Teacher Oh Teacher, teach me how to write

So that I can say my words with a little bite

 

Teacher Oh Teacher, teach me how to sing

So that I can spread the joy that life can bring

 

Teacher Oh Teacher, teach me how to plan

So that I can convince myself to say I can

 

Teacher Oh Teacher, teach me how to pray

So that I can find solace if I’ve gone astray

 

Teacher Oh Teacher, teach me how to live

So that I can cope with dreams I can’t achieve

 

Teacher Oh Teacher, teach me how to die

So that I can pass this life and into Paradise
