I am now not that rich
That is my main hitch

I love to generously now donate
But, bad is my monetary state

I feel terribly sorry for this
A wealthy life I sadly miss

But, in my heart I have a desire
To do good before I finally expire

My heart now requests pardon
For giving the site undue burden

One day I may be financially sound
With a solid monetary background

I will never behave like a stingy miser
I will donate lovingly by being nicer

God will make my days surely bright
On that day I will have donating delight

I have indeed a very broad mind
Enough wealth I do not find

Take from me this sincere promise
I am waiting for wealth to give a kiss

Now please give me an exemption
Let my poems do space-consumption

Hundred percent the trend will change
On that day assistance I will arrange

I sadly now make a honest request
To allow me to write in right earnest

My words come from my heart
One day I will definitely comfort

I beg you to forgive me now
I am happy that you allow

Wheels of fortune will turn
In my favor to kindly return

Thanks a lot for the kind permission
May God bless us in our mission.

In case is had colossal guts
What one wants one gets

When there is bravery
There ends slavery

Surely a brave man
Executes his plan

When boldness comes
Hurdles, soul overcomes

Courage you now bring
I will make you a king

When fear you halt
You rectify a fault

Brave people achieve
As plans they conceive

Dig for worry a grave
And tackle fate-wave

Boldness always wins
As doubts it surely pins

Courageous people
Alone can topple

Anything that is adverse
In this vast fine Universe.

When your view is totally different
Give to none shocking current

Calmly indicate your position
By telling the present condition

Never at all behave venomously
Use God-given wit enormously

Even if you are completely right
Refrain from waging a stiff fight

You may be in fact perfect
And you may be correct

Here only employ precious wisdom
Be not a slave for conceit's kingdom

Offer your ideas very politely
Let your act be made rightly

Never jump to quick conclusion
To avoid possible concussion

When truth stays at your side
Show true humility, not pride

Quietly if you plan to deal
For you surely all will feel

Harsh approach never helps
By that, only hatred develops.

Only when efforts are taken
Defeats can be easily broken

When mind suffers from fear
It opens the gate for tear

By indulging in self-pity
We may blunder in duty

When we are too much afraid
We lose even from God aid

God wants us to be brave
Then only He can save

Boldly enter into the bout
Let hope finely sprout out

Just by making up mind
A way one can surely find

Honest efforts fetch glory
Hard-work brings victory

Never think pessimistically
Ponder over practically

It is very easy to soon retreat
But, success refuses its treat

Courageous steps achieve
So a bold plan, try to weave

If heart is full of hatred
Body cannot be sacred
Soul by sorrow will be led
No sleep at all in the bed

If we develop one enemy
He will poison our anatomy
More powerful than an army
This applies to you and me

If we cannot tolerate another
By treating him as a brother
About him we will ever bother
Only ill-will we will father

Just forgive and kindly forget
Then peace of mind we will get
There will be no need to regret
Love is the best and safest asset

In friendship extend  your hand
Giving a place in heart-land
Your mind will be calm and grand
As everyone you can understand.

Kindly bear with every insult
And digest the bad result

Blame none, but only God
Ideas are that of the Lord

Your heart may feel terrible
Due to others being insensible

Still wait exercising true patience
Never give room for sad emotions

Others have made a blunder
Now only you must ponder

Repeat not their mistake
Forget the created ache

Having a forgiving tendency
Will save in an emergency

Fools store sorrow in the heart
And derive unwanted discomfort

The wise erase it in one sweep
And a happy heart they keep

No use in brooding over
And developing bad fever.

Life on this Earth is very brief
We get mirth as well as grief
For this Cosmos God is the chief
He knows when to give relief

He puts soul into the body
To watch He is ever ready
He at last gives a remedy
Occur tragedy and comedy

He controls the entire Cosmos
He is truly the exclusive boss
He is in charge of profit and loss
Inscrutable are His Divine laws

He exercises fullest control
In the placement of soul
None knows His ultimate goal
He gives to every soul a role

Surely we can end an ant
Or destroy a helping plant
Or a mantra we can chant
Alms to the poor we can grant

Our freedom is wisely restricted
Actions are by our will effected
Noble souls are by God protected
Truth is by Him perfectly detected

The smallest creature also moves
Soul is there it strongly proves
In this way our doubts God removes
Our trust in God like this improves

Death makes the soul exit
Birth helps the soul visit
To live God will permit
Its need, end will submit

What pleasure God derives?
Why a soul here arrives?
Why God creates lives?
Why forever nothing survives?

Answers can surely be one day found
But, a soul must reach the burial ground
Its body must never at all move around
Great revelations will come to astound.
