Part one:

If you imbibe the following, then you will never remain unhappy:
Be rich by mind and not by money, and gold,
Because, in the temples, even if there,
Are the jars and pots of gold,
You bow on to the steps of stone only.

Do not depict happiness and pain,
To anyone overly, because, in life,
There would be people who keep,
Watch on your happiness, and might,
Sprinkle salt on your sorrow.

What is easily available is chhal,
Illusion,
What is obtained by hard work and,
With difficulty is an honor,
What is got by heart is love,
And what is available by fate/luck,
Is a true friend.

When you were not there, the world,
Was here,
And when you would not be here,
The world would still remain here,
Here, the bigger and greater came,
And went,
Even if, one is here or not, the world,
Or people are not affected much,
That is why be free from the worries,
And enjoy the present time.

Do not remember the past,
Do not grumble on what comes,
Along in the life,
What is going to happen would,
Happen anyway,
Do not destroy smile of today in,
Worrying about the future,
Swan sings while dying,
Peacock cries while dancing,
This is enigma of life,
You do not get sleep when unhappy,
And who sleeps peacefully even,
When happy?

Know five bitter truths of life:

The people change with time,
The ones who were given,
More attention,

Considered more important,
Bring usually the sorrow,

Things that we get easily,
Do not last long,
and the ones that last long are,
Not available easily,

The distance teaches the significance,
Of nearness,

And the ego of wealth numbs,
The truth.
***
The four places in the world do not,
Get fully filled up:
Oceans, crematorium, desires,
And human mind.
***
Do not evaluate your beauty in,
the front of the mirror,
But in the hearts of the others,
Do not go to the places where,
People tolerate you,
But to where they await you.

Those who break the rules of their,
Own life for others remain unhappy.
