May I Be...

Only if I am lost
   I shall seek the right path...
     May I be a wanderer!

Only if I experience fear
   I shall reap up the courage to be brave...
     May I be frightened!!

Only if I discover emptiness
   I shall adore abundance...
     May I be abandoned!!!

Only if I despise myself
   I shall learn to show reverence towards others...
     May I be unworthy!!!!

Only if I become placid
   I shall let my heart overflow...
     May I become stationary!!!!!
