Books and Outlooks
A book must be fully read without skipping,
A bad one must be given up on the spot,
See never the cover and buy any book dear,
You must go through few pages before buying,
A book that preaches not good morals
Must be shunned with the slightest thought
As it may reduce your life to ruins so easily,
It will surely cancel all the laurels you earned,
Choose only those books loved by the scholars
And books with cheap ideas invariably spoil,
Every book is kind of window only in its purpose,
Some show the praying room, some the World,
Some peep into bedroom and some the restroom,
If we are blessed by the Lord, we will choose
Only those books that add stuff to lead a fine life,
It is left to our choice only to choose any book,
May God kindly be with us to get the right books
That will help us get a fine livelihood and peace,
Before taking any book, pray and then open it,
Any undesirable book, reject it immediately please,
All the best and enter into the world of books!
