Before It Is Too Late

BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE

There is a need to instill in the heart,
Before it is too late.
It is neither science nor art,
It is something great.

We are the best of kind,
Possessing reasoning-mind,
Human beings ought to find,
The universal cause behind,
The birth and being
Of things we are seeing,
And why some flourish,
Why all have to perish.

We did not wish to be born,
Still we are born and living.
We will not wish to die,
Still we will not be living.

Having come here we see,
From skies, land and sea
All provisions for livelihood
Are already made well and good.

Just the seeds we sow,
Who makes it grow?
How vast is the sky!
Who erected it so high?
From there descends the rain,
From earth sprouts the grain
Everyone of us finds,
Food of different kinds.
We get sweet water to drink,
About the provider we should think.

The sun is shown bright,
The moon soothes the night,
The stars are there to guide,
Wonder to whom do these abide!

Every season have their own term,
Mountains hold the earth firm,
Oceans, lakes, and rivers flow,
Who has set these we should know.

Animals, birds and fishes, alike
Should give man's psyche a strike
Everything is in favour to us,
Who's behind we should think of, thus.

One is rich and one is poor,
Even if both have worked for sure,
This is because the Distributer is one,
The One whom many of us shun.

One may fail and one succeed,
Except His will there are no causes,
He knows what, when, who will need
Cause man proposes, God disposes.

We think everything is 'certain'
That which follows cause and effect
We do notice many uncertain
That which we do not expect.
These differences should stir
The minds of every Ma'am and Sir

Loads and loads of matters to say
This is short so heed you pay
Without our wish we have born
And are provided with water and corn
We witness daily night and morn
And varied happenings to think why
Using clues from earth and sky
And accordingly to act
By knowing the following fact:
Anything by itself does not happen
But is deliberately made to happen
Who is behind
Things of different kind?
Who is behind
Varied happenings which we find?
Can remain oblivious in every way
No need to bother- we can say
But there is death we all know
Escaping which who can go?
