Grieve Not



A thousand and one dreams
We harbour in our minds.
We know how hard it seems,
As life unwinds.

What we desire,
Sometimes doesn't happen.
It is good for fire,
But not for our spirits to dampen.

There is no such thing as sorrow,
Everything is a lesson.
If it had happened that way
It certainly had a reason.

'Sochitumarhasi'*, friends.
We live in an unreal world.
Everything here is a lie,
The only truth is love.


*- a phrase from the Bhagavad Gita which means 'grieve not'.

Live to Love, Love to Live



Listen to me Oh! Brothers,
In you keep your trust.
Binds us the thread of love,
Entwining our souls together.
Revive the glory of Mother Earth,
Try to make her happy.
Yesterday is gone, today's newly born.

Ejaculate the sinful thoughts,
Queued up deep in your mind.
Under that rotten spot,
A beautiful soul you'll find.
Love everyone like your own self,
Imagine a happy world.
Treat no one with bitter scorn.
Yesterday is gone, today's newly born.

Forgive and forget,
Recall the child in you.
All your sorrows you convert,
To happiness that's overdue.
Everywhere can you find love.
Remember only to open your heart.
Nomadic will our lives be,
In this prison-like world,
Till we start sharing love.
Yesterday is gone, today's newly born.
