Be

Within one's heart it breathes
to make triumphant the spirit.
Nothing happens by accident
when it refuses to submit.

From deep inside it dictates,
far stronger forces negating.
Denying evil's coercive power,
it pulses, forcefully resisting.

With it the good man can win
giving him the will to choose.
Putting to shame the wicked,
there is no way he can lose.
