BROKEN STRING AND THE HEART

Ecstatic, the heart profusely dreams,
Imagine a paradise melody stream,
Not a less of stigma remorse swell,
Profound peace, happiness prevail, (1)

Sequel of aspiration, pleasure, love,
Momentary courage, pain dissolves,
Rarely confess and convey, openly,
The silent song pervades life, lonely (2)

Hesitates, shares immense passion,
Material gain, or prized possession,
Preferred a life, an anonymous show,
Unknown happenings, alert, know, (3)

Helpful, benevolent, and caring life,
Attended sick and needy the strife,
Accepted enough gratitude smiles,
Service to the Lord serves life miles, (4)

Single, no family or children, stay,
He found serenity, happiness, sway,
A lone wolf among forest verdure,
The solitude, seclusion, encounter, (5)

Discover the human mission, well,
Unearthly realization quietly dwells,
The symphony of human life listen,
A melody metamorphoses glistens, (6)

His heart, a guitar, strings pulsate,
The soul plays a song of life, relate,
No pain, sorrow, anxiety, and fear,
The music enchants the soul, hear, (7)

Cruel the time steal sadly, mourn,
Broken string and the heart yearn,
See an irreparable guitar, the heart,
After spring arrives, winter, in fact. (viii)
