the old ice-cream seller

The old ice-cream seller
Pedaling his tricycle every day
From morning till late evening
Earning income to survive

Life is tough
He faces it for the last 40 years
Selling ice-cream to earn a living
Everyday on his weathered born face

Now his wife in chronic health
Losing both her kidneys
3 times a week to Ipoh hospital
Taxi cost a burden on his shoulder

He never gives up his struggles
He continues to ply his trade
The income barely supporting his expenses
With a wife who faces a bleak day

This is love
A man cherishes for his wife
No doubt it will be hard
He never gives up

If only the young will learn
Do not give up facing struggles in life
Fight until the end to know the results
Giving up isn't the way to find salvation
