Still Over There

When I left my motherland
I packed a lot of luggage
my clothes,
my perfumes,
my favorite masala packs
and tiny-tiny, knick-knacks...
my each book,
my each song,
and everything that I could take along.

On my arrival to this country
I checked all of it;
if it reached safe and intact.
Yes, everything was fine
except for one thing
that had refused to part
And that was my little heart.

No matter how much
this country can allure
My heart is still over there
I know for sure.
