O you humans What are you doing with your life? You've refused to live while you can Death overshadows you all But yet you act as though you've got a thousand lives
O you man Why are you so eager to change things beyond your control? You don't see the fowl living in agony over losing her chicks to the hawk Why then do you prefer to worry Wait in patience, not in delay and do not hurry
O you living child Only if you could remember how to live How you can feel and let go of emotions But yet do not carry it over to tomorrow How you can be sad and yet not drown yourself in sorrows How everything is possible with your imagination Why did you let aging blind you from seeing the simplicity in life?
