Dharma and Money

DHARMA AND MONEY
                            ===============

IT IS THE DUTY OF SOULS TO DO
SOME THING FOR THE EARTH AND OTHERS
NOTHING WILL COME WITH YOU
THOUGH YOU ARE A KING OR EMPEROR

YOUR SINS AND NOBLES WILL FOLLOW
EVEN AFTER YOUR DEATH 
DO GOOD FOR OTHERS AND DO GOOD

YOUR HANDS MAY BE EMPTY AND PENNYLESS
YOUR MIND HAS TO BE PREPARED TO GIVE ALL
YOUR HEART HAS TO READY TO SHED BLOOD FOR OTHERS

ITMAY BE YOUR LAST BIRTH 
YOUR NAME HAS TO BE PRONOUNCED FOR A LONG
MONEY AND JEWELS ARE NOTHING TO DEATH
DHARMA AND KARMA WILL ONLY COME WITH YOU
