TEMPORAL

 

TEMPORAL

 

Splash liquidity of ambitions wish,

Gold jewelry defeats rivalry relish,

Rise in due course of time superior,

Amass wealth property act warrior, (1)

 

Vanity, humility, and honesty erode sadly,

Replace ego, obstinate, cruelty, madly,

Sequel to human progress material,

Crumble spirit confidence temporal, (2)

 

Everything physical in sight vanishes,

Impermanent physical matter miss,

Story written in books legacy sock,

Rises civilization temporal no joke, (3)

 

Temptation for power, women chief,

Imprison innocents, action a thief,

The lust-blinded mind lacks vision,

Tragedy human story tear emotion, (4)

 

Commit blunder loot to repent later,

Temporal physical things shatter,

Read books sad to know realities,

Humans fail timeless capabilities, (5)

 

Scantly a few discarded attachments,

Treat world illusory impermanent,

The human body perish, examines lives,

Sojourn soul not temporal believes, (6)

 

Neither can be burned to ash,

Not can be cut into pieces dismay,

Neither soil nor water can cover the sojourn,

Human soul  life temporal mourn, (7)

 

 

Short-span human life mission lit,

Divine life defeats material delight,

Truth, love, sympathy, care, persists,

A permanent balanced universe exists, (viii)

 

Infinite peace and happiness are pervasive,

Landscape nature is greedy, evasive,

Watch birds flying gaily, disappear,

Sailing cloud and picturesque, whiter, (9)

 

Valley wears greenery yet paradise,

Rain comes thunder rain, precise,

Tall tree century witness climate,

Temporal features communicate, (10)

 

Change creator's planning relates,

Eternal soul love service dedicated,

Temporal mesmerizes nature short,

Lord's abode within search escort. (11)
