As night falls in, begins my duty
They let me free to walk around
Around the house I walk vigilant
Guard my masters house in darkness
Yes - I am a dog and I am proud to be!
All through the day they lock me in
Still on duty I am, no trespass allowed-
'Wait at the gate for my master! '
On my strong command they frighten
Yes - I am a dog and I am proud to be!
Loyal to my boss I am always
Grateful and obedient, smart and intelligent
Courageous and faithful, I am altruistic
Along with master I go till death and thereafter
Yes - I am a dog and I am proud to be!
Yet on a thin ice I live, in disgrace
They make me lick their feet, whip me too
May slaughter me one day, the greedy man
When old and fail to serve, they shoot me
Yes - I am a dog and I am proud to be!
In every walk of life I am there, my master
Yet you always walk out on me
Out from the murk you come
Oh human! be humane and proud to be,
A world of tranquility awaits you!
Truly picturising the reality! . Good Buddy keep it up.
