Duty Helps Us Realize Divinity

Only by doing well our duty
We can please the Divinity

When work is well-done
We tender a money-garden

When work is more
Life is never a bore

When we show sincerity
Blesses us the Almighty

In case we adore our  job
There is  no need to sob

When work is too much
Our will-power grows rich

Work if we truly enjoy
Poverty will not annoy

Working is better than praying
As one will be perfectly staying

Work offers money as a reward
So, is not work equal to the Lord?
