THE LAST LAMP:TWENTY MINUTES BEFORE DAWN THE VILLAGE IS STILL AND THE SKY IS

THE LAST LAMP — A SONG OF HOPE, DETERMINATION AND NEW BEGINNINGS [INTRO] Twenty minutes before dawn, when the village is still and the sky is waiting for light, An old lamp keeps burning, guarding a dream through the night. In Devgarh there stood a little school, humble walls and a faithful heart, And Masterji believed that every child deserved a brighter start. [CHORUS] Keep the last lamp burning, let the light go on, Even in the darkest hour, remember the coming dawn. One small flame can travel where a thousand voices cannot, One act of service can awaken a forgotten thought. Time is precious, do it now, don't wait for another day, When hearts unite in truth and love, darkness fades away. Keep the last lamp burning, let hope become the song, The light we give to others is the light that carries on.

He had spent his life teaching children that values matter more than gold, That knowledge becomes meaningful when it makes a human heart bold. Yet an official decision was coming, and the school might disappear, The thought of children losing their learning filled his heart with fear. He looked at every desk and remembered every face, Every question, every dream, every child who had found a place. He wondered whether all those years could vanish with the closing door, Whether the little lamp of education would shine there no more. [CHORUS] Keep the last lamp burning, let the light go on, Even in the darkest hour, remember the coming dawn. A school is more than walls, a teacher more than words, The seeds of love and learning can fly like morning birds. Time is precious, do it now, let courage lead the way, A brighter
