the chesty cough

The nights I hear

The constant coughing in the silence

You can't sleep it right

The chesty cough makes it bad

You lie on the folding chair

Trying hard to get into sleep

But the chesty cough disturbs you

In the night taking away dreams

You try your best to sleep

But sleep never comes right in

You cough it bad in the night

The virus never wants to die

The specialist says nothing serious

He prescribes cough mixture

And throat liquid to soothe it

But the chesty cough comes

Now try home remedy

Honey with grapes mix together

It is hope to remedy the chesty cough

Cause by flu or cold as its base

And the nights the sleepless time

She coughs badly at a corner

Trying hard to fall asleep

But the chesty cough refuses to die

And I keep a watchful eye

In the nights I listen in the silence

I pray to dear God let her sleep well

Let her be sunny in the morning
