Be Sweet and Young

People do not like
characterless one
Nature does not like
the old and aged….

New leaves grow in the trees
After the winter, in the spring
various flowers bloom
many birds sing……

People do not like sour
If it is even a grape
Men do not like a soldier
If he is not brave…..

Our societies do not like
the sour and old
So be sweet and young
and be brave.......
