Coz A Brother like you is hard to find

When u were really small,

I’d always wait for you to open those tiny little eyes,

So that I could show you my pretty baby doll...

Too little to express dislike then, you scared me with your howling and cries.

Coz a Brother like you is hard to find…

Remember the time I made you wear my frock and tie a pony,

Hid you in a room and threatened to call the others cos it was just so funny!!!

And we grew up like the polar opposites,

You loved the awful milk I hated,

And you hated the awesome pickles I loved!!!!

You adored the crazy cars that hit my tiny teddies,

And Even the kind of songs you liked bruised my sweet melodies.

Your love for new guns each and every Eid made me even buy u one for your b’day!!

And imagine my fury and horror when you chased me with it the very next day: O

But then, I always chose u over others, ever eager to see your latest exhibits……

Coz a Brother like you is hard to find...

Years passed and I became the younger one,

Sometimes, you were the only friend that I could confide,

And sometimes you alone knew the way and was my only guide.

You gave the care that I never had to ask for,

You were that huge pillar of support now and before…

Though it made me mad at times to think that u stole my right,

Cos it was not easy to accept that you always knew when to advice and when to bite.

I could never take the place u deserved even if I had a gun……..

Coz a Brother like you is hard to find…

On your birthday, I thank The Almighty for giving me you and just want to let u know,

The little and big things you have done and never show.

All the uncountable times you were there with God’s own touch,

Help me know deep down how much u really care,

How much I’m being blessed unaware…

Even though u never really say much…
