Do Not Be Worried
Do birds sow or reap? Do they gather wealth?
Does the sun or shower cause birds’ ill health?
A few worms and a few grains suffice them.
Do they gather any gold, pearl, or gem?
Why worry when you labour, filled with hope?
Can't you, with life's every thick and thin, cope?
Fears spring from dark deserts of dearth of trust.
Don't lilies with spring and summer adjust?
Has any king like a bird been in zest?
Has any queen like Daisies ever dressed?
Isn’t each of the grasses and hairs cared for?
Trusting the divine, fulfil each day's chore.
Forget fears of health and wealth. Be blessed!
Do you lack faith? You asked. Why are you stressed?
