Learn Thyself

Come to me O dear child and come to learn
It’s life, sharp time-based for every human
O you have to learn thyself to shirk mourn
None helps you to be always in good sane

Always be helpful and control yourself
Positive sense makes you a cheerful mind
Love is the great lesson of life to help
Avoiding hatred makes your great and kind

Revenge is not useful for the conscience
Forgiveness makes you delightful truly
Forget the past but learn it by heart sense
Be spry in present to grasp life fully 

O sweet my child, I must go forever
Yet death is not awful for God lover
