World, a chain of cause and effect

Flower flourishes, then follows the fruit,
Dark clouds gather, only then comes the rain,
Seed’s sown at first, and then arises sprout,
Cause and effect, ah what a sure-set chain!

Udeti poorvam kusumam, tatah phalam |
Ghana-udayam praak, payah tat antaram |
Nimitta-naimittikayoh kramah ayam || Subhaashhitam ||
