Try not to know the paths of sun and Moon

Nor try to change the axis of the Earth

Nor endeavor to know about DNA or Jeans

As there is no need to find the roots of mankind

 

Be not *Gripple, for, the wealth is ripple

He gives you what you deserve and not you desire

To give thy poor neighbor you are capable

Be kind and the needy, may be, you behind

For *emulousness *egotism you be blind

Be delighted and crave not for wealth

 

Prevent *pique, detach desire, be as *angelic sky

How long clouds *calamitous hover on your head

Find the truth, have faith in Him, whom you hum

This takes you and your neighborhood too

To the place where you have *tranquility

But no *tribulation, this, a real tribute to your nation

 

Gripple=Greedy; emulousness=Strong desire to surpass the others; egotism=too much boasting; Pique=anger; angelic= one who manifests goodness, purity and selflessness; calamitous= disastrous; Tranquility=calmness; Tribulation=distress.
