Am I a body? Am I a mind? Or bundle of both?
Does blood, as though ordered, only through single channel flow?
Is heart seat of mind? Does mind to dwell-in heart take an oath?
Do veins, like children in uniform, pass through the same row?
Is mind a lone monk? Nay! Body and mind are never split.
When each cell of mind-body is bound in single union,
Mind and heart, and flesh, and blood, and veins, and bones are well-knit.
Param Brahma (the God Almighty) finds his communion...!
When physic and psyche are sound, there are divine vibrations,
This frees karma-dharma bondage of earthly existence,
Leading each atman (human) to heavenly relations;
Liberates from disillusions and inner resistance...!
Keeping one’s body and mind pure - isn't, hence, truly must?
Who does wish one's whole life, forever decaying in dust…?

Happily ensconced in a glimmering tree
Wearing buckle belts on his pudgy left knee
The old Vogan king took a potshot at me.
My men promptly snatched him up and threw him down
Tore off his wig, his shirt, and his hideous crown
Kicked him meanly into a heap on the ground
We dragged him by orange donkey cart all over town
By the time we were finished, his pants were all brown
He gave up his scepter, his gold teeth and his crown
He offered me the key to his kingdom, his wife, and more
What would I do with that dried up old shrew of a boar?
Anyway, I was on a mission and wanted a war.
What really made me mad, what incensed me, was Vogan TV
It was on every single channel, and how good can that be?
Next time I tell you the Vogan King will be sorry he messed with thee.
