You feel disgruntled
And remain openly misled
When rejected at home front
And appreciated by outside clients

You are not happy
When people are not ready
To accept you as leader
And treat as if an outsider

It makes you to feel bitter
With no love for others
They stand always against
With their selfish interest

You are very popular
To places very far
People know you closely
And treat you wisely

They have trust
And feel your contribution is best
No one has rendered selfless service so far
Your name is taken with honor
