Celebrations eating and feasting
Giving gifts costly and superficial
How do you feel when you discover?
That your gift has been spilled out in vain
without finding the sweet happiness of using
But you found it deep into a dusty bin

Wasn’t it was of love and hard labour to earn?
Does one ever appreciate your pocket’s reward?
Why are you tempted into spending
For those gifts that others can't afford?
Remember that the millions starve even in rich counties?
Waiting for someone who may find sympathy
To quench the thirst and hunger

Your charity redeems the acute pangs of the hunger
It adds your grace if you make a miserable smile
In giving there is rich and varied treasure,
In their healing you shall find shining pleasure
Granting ample joy to those who without care,
Those with pain they have none to share.
