Sacrifices the life
Like candles To enlighten the life
Of thousands pupils Practices and preaches
The endurance
Like the engulfed drops
In the shell Spreads the smile While even unplugged
Like the blooming petals And adorns the life
As a beautiful bouquet
The day to remember it is By every one –who Taught the letters of alphabet
And it travels through till death Now words are limited
To praise their services Some remembers this day With ‘Best Teacher Award’ Some receives the honors
From their pupils Let us remember
Our teachers – who
Are behind our glorious life Happy teachers Day
