The Wisdom Book

I would want to be the honest investigators' Book of wisdom That can cheer hearts against life’s boredom Enabling them to bask in peace-driven freedom As they regard God’s blissful heavenly kingdom*. With my truth, the wanderers can find the right way Since they are guided by my illumining ray Toward triumphant path where they can stay Overcoming the witch’s deceiving “yea” and “nay.” As I’m consulted by seekers with sincere diligence I pray that by faith, they accept my counsels’ persistence Along my good, gracious, and great revelation’s prevalence Enduring over skeptics’ doubts and critics’ eloquence. For such assertions, I declare my request That genuine wizards of goodness would study me to the fullest To lead others to the Supreme Ruler Who's the wisest For them to be transformed, creating another great story's zest!
