The Belief of the Ancient Wise Men

It is the belief of the ancient wise men
                                                                                    That is worth a must watch and listen
                                                             That self control is the backbone of human character
                                       While justice is one of its key chapter

                                      Control of emotions and desires defines a human that merits honor
                                       Based on ethics and laws from the hands of the divine donor
                                       Being mindful of others at zero-sum and adherence to right
                                      And differing of personal gratification is also a quality of worthiness
