DEEDS CONTINUE TO LIVE
Impermanent human life is
certain,
Impossible to think spirits return,
Epitaph if humans indicate name,
Disappears passion and the same, (1)
Vanishes tortured life and worry,
None exist dreams desires, ivory,
Like a line on water, fame vanishes,
No longer exists life to love, wish, (2)
Fade happiness and pleasure quickly,
Cremation pyre plays melancholy,
The story began and ended sadly, trail,
Memories of the person duly fail, (3)
A gust of wind untraced surprise,
A temporary phenomenon prize,
Matchless human life, the breath,
Ends the story, realization, wealth, (4)
Pour emotion thought deed etch,
Accolade, admiration, praise fetch,
Influence lighted a dark mind, say,
Sacrifice self-interest paves a way, (5)
Do or die, save others, motto heal,
Benign hearts implement, reveal,
Anniversary of birth, death, or idol,
Celebrate happily, obeys protocol, (6)
Headlines of golden deeds remind,
Immortal books, novels, library find,
Generations fewer forget, read well,
The concept and vision shine, dwell, (7)
Deeds continue to live, a monument,
School college plantations incident,
Cities and roads, services manifold,
Remember, a person's name is gold. (viii)
