Renounce for God the thought of pride,
Humility is the straight path, where immortality resides.
Modest is the one who in His mystery finds solace,
And instead of earthly gold, receives forgiveness and grace.
Love your neighbor, honor your parents dear,
In their warm tears lie treasures sacred and clear.
Not in fleeting riches, but in the gift of love,
The pure soul rises to heaven above.
Seek peace in all, and leave worldly desire behind,
For in the heavenly, the Lord hides all that’s divinely kind.
Who renounces the world, towards Him shall tread,
And in His holy grace, a new life blossoms ahead.

Renounce for God the thought of pride,
Humility is the straight path, where immortality resides.

And instead of earthly gold, receives forgiveness and grace.

In their warm tears lie treasures sacred and clear.
Not in fleeting riches, but in the gift of love,
The pure soul rises to heaven above.
Seek peace in all, and leave worldly desire behind,
For in the heavenly, the Lord hides all that’s divinely kind.
Who renounces the world, towards Him shall tread,
And in His holy grace, a new life blossoms ahead.
